Podcast appearances and mentions of leo kalyan

We wax lyrical with Nikita Chauhan, the CEO, and founder of TranslateNC; a music talent management and strategic marketing company looking after Guiltybeatz,  DJ Semtex & more.  Ep 79 goes under the surface, starting with Nikita's journey from working in a call centre in Derby to hustling her way in and then eventually leaving radio production at the BBC to start up her own business. With a deep understanding of how music unites us, Nikita's trust, transparency, and communication drive her to help musicians tell their stories their way.  Our conversation taps into Nikita's boldness as well as a challenging work experience that shaped her for the better. Following our EP 77 with Leo Kalyan, we continue exploring the blessings of being South Asian in music - this time behind the scenes rather than on the mic. Nikita's mantra is ‘You don't know what you don't know' so in that spirit, if you're new to WITB or the powerhouse that is Nikita Chauhan, dive right in and get to know.

EP 78 with Leo Kalyan is here to bless your ears! Bringing in wisdom, warmth, and undeniable skill is @leokalyan the singer, songwriter & music producer from London who has taken the world by storm with their Bollybeats, mashups, and uniquely playful renditions of classics old and new. After a social-media hiatus over the pandemic, Leo transformed their Indian Classical training into a phenomenal series of Bollywood x chart mashups that explore the musical synergy between Afrobeats, Latinx & Indian music. Leo's videos went globally viral on Tiktok & Instagram with support from respected musicians like Grimes & AR Rahman (as well as the rest of the world)! Confidently and utterly themself, Leo is open about their gay & non-binary identities amongst the many facets that make up this brilliant artist. We caught up with Leo talking everything from bilingual and non-English music embedding into the mainstream, how gender-neutral pronouns are a part of ancient Indian language and 15th, 16th, and 17th century Punjabi Hindi poetry, and why queering fashion is a powerful tool to make people see and treat you differently. Listen to Leo's music, check out their IG & tiktok and like, share and subscribe to WITB for more insightful, honest, and hilarious conversations with South Asian people going against the grain. Thank you Leo! Aaron, Almass & Reuben x ---- Presented by Aaron Christian, Almass Badat & Reuben Christian Produced by Surya Elango

Hey friends, welcome to my podcast miniseries. I'm a massive fan of podcasts, even more so over the past year, and so I wanted to do something special for my new EP 'Secrets I'll Never Tell' and create this series of conversations to go alongside it. A companion piece you could say. Each week for the next seven weeks, I'll be chatting to different performers, creatives and inspiring people about stories in their lives, vulnerabilities, sexuality, identity, mental health and loads more. There'll be some live performances, some laughter, maybe a few tears, and hopefully some really valuable conversations for you to enjoy that focus on some of the themes of 'Secrets I'll Never Tell' and beyond. This week's guests are two incredible talents, MNEK and Leo Kalyan. MNEK is a Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter and producer who has written for some of the biggest names in pop, as well as releasing his own debut album ‘Language' in 2018. Leo is also an incredible singer, songwriter and producer who co-wrote ‘Head & Heart' with MNEK which went to number one last year, as well as releasing his own EPs ‘Outside In,' and ‘The Edge' which explore his identity as a gay Muslim musician. We spoke about how the pandemic has affected their work, being a queer musician in 2021, and loads more. I loved having this chat, and I hope you enjoy listening!

Tom takes Bottle Pop on the road as he travels to multi-talented singer/songwriter/producer Leo Kalyan’s house for a chat. They toast to diversity (not the Britain’s Got Talent dance troupe) and put the world to rights on a wide range of issues. From Indian music being sampled in Western pop, to the lack of brown artists being played on UK radio, Leo discusses in depth, how juggling being both an LGBT artist and Asian, can be a struggle. The pair also talk about Leo’s early years, his training in Indian Classical Music and his fascination with the sea. Leo reveals what his drag name would be (it’s amazing!), his obsession with RuPaul’s Drag Race and chooses RuPaul, Holly Valance and Whigfield for his Aux Cable Selection.
