Lehmber Hussainpuri

Asian Network Celebrates

Available for 29 days

Asian Network Celebrates Lehmber Hussainpuri, a 60 minute deep dive with Dipps Bhamrah into the journey of one of the most recognisable voices in 2000s Bhangra. You’ll hear all about his early days and breakthrough moments, from Sanu Soni Lagdi with Mukhtar Sahota, to the huge success of Das Ja with DJ Sanj, through to Ah Ni Kuria with Dr Zeus, to name just a few. Dipps explores key moments in Lehmber’s rise, from collaborations with Aman Hayer, DJ Sanj, Jeeti and Kam Frantic, to the conversation surrounding the Zeus album release and how that period shaped his career. The show reflects on the versatility and longevity of an artist whose voice soundtracked clubs, weddings and dancefloors across generations. Today, Lehmber Hussainpuri remains a voice that continues to leave its mark on Bhangra music worldwide! Produced in Birmingham by Glenvale Media for BBC Asian Network.
