‘Paiya Dei’ promises to be an auditory experience like no other, blending cultural roots with contemporary genius, and is set to redefine what audiences can expect from the Tamil music industry. This unprecedented collaboration sees Believe, one of the world’s leading digital music companies and majority stakeholder in Think Music and Think Indie, not just pushing boundaries but tearing them down entirely.
Asal is celebrated for his groundbreaking independent tracks, including the hit anthems “Jorthaale” and “Adi Odi.” With his quirky, thought-provoking lyrics, he has carved out a distinctive niche in the hip-hop scene.

In the words of Asal, “As an artist, being signed to a label is just the beginning. The revolutionary step of releasing my music video directly on my own channel is a game-changer. I’m thrilled to be the first artist to receive this opportunity from Think Music. Their guidance has been instrumental in helping artists reach their milestones through such innovative initiatives. While I’m unsure if this has been done before, I’m incredibly proud to be among the first to experience it. I see this as a golden opportunity, one that not many artists might get. I intend to make the most of it and work diligently towards my next milestone of success. I’m eagerly looking forward to the upcoming songs in this series. The first track, “Paiya Dei,” has been released, and I am filled with immense gratitude for everyone who helped make this possible. Cheers!”
In a radical shift in artist-label collaboration, Asal’s exclusive deal with Think Indie puts the reins
entirely in Asal’s hands, allowing him to oversee every aspect of his release.
