RJ Khan is the founder of Tune Therapy Records. His music is an honest reflection of life, blending storytelling with profound emotional depth.
Born Raju Ali Khan on December 10, 1999—falling on the first day of the holy month of Ramzan—his story begins far from the bright lights of mainstream entertainment. Originally named Farihad Ali and affectionately called 'Roza' by his parents, he grew up in the ancient, winding, and spiritually charged streets of Varanasi.
Raised in a humble, working-class home by parents who never had the privilege of formal education, survival was the very first language RJ learned. Before music became his sanctuary, his battles were strictly physical. An athletic prodigy driven by a ferocious need to prove himself, he initially set his sights on the kickboxing ring and cricket, conquering the game at the district level.
The pivot from the physical combat of kickboxing to the poetic combat of rap occurred during his tenth-grade year. Armed with nothing but an entry-level smartphone and an indomitable will, he turned his bedroom into a laboratory. He absorbed the architecture of music production through countless hours of YouTube tutorials, employing sheer, unrelenting trial and error to engineer a sound born from pure necessity.
Today, RJ Khan is no longer just a kid from Varanasi fighting for a chance; he is a fully realized entity in the Indian music scene, creating premium art from the rawest elements of his life. His sound has matured from the lo-fi experiments of his teenage years into a cinematic, brooding, and atmospheric blend of Desi Hip Hop, Pop Rap, and Alternative R&B.
