Dhruva fell in love with hip-hop after his first listen of Eminem's verbal venom on The Marshall Mathers LP. Fast forward fifteen years later and this journalist and aspiring novelist critiques and discusses the entire genre in his free time after spending the last fifteen years obsessively listening to it while breaking down the influence hip-hop has had on a whole generation of people and pop culture. An opinionated person, it's hard to change his views but Dhruva is always open to listen to any artist before deciding on their value.
