Supermann of Scottish Hip-Hop
TUNE meets Sanjeev Mann - aka Supermann on da beat - as he releases the first EP of his own music.
Sanjeev Mann - aka Supermann on da beat - is a producer, songwriter, promoter and campaigner who is motivated by the need to shout loudly about the importance of Scottish hip-hop in all its forms.
As host and curator of online platform Hip Hop Scotland, Sanjeev has become a spokesperson for a new generation of artists and is passionate about raising awareness of the huge talent that exists in the Scottish Asian hip-hop community.
As a wheelchair user and sufferer of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, Sanjeev is also a fierce campaigner for accessibility in music and led a petition calling for change in Scotland’s venues in 2023.
In contrast to his worsening degenerative condition, Sanjeev's creative energy and drive grows, and in early 2024, he released his own musical debut EP Breathe, putting his experiences of discrimination and under-representation on record for the first time.
Shining a spotlight on Sanjeev’s superhero-esque drive and determination, this TUNE film follows Supermann as he continues to champion the Scottish Asian hip-hop community and bring his new music to life, putting his emotionally charged, highly personal experience into focus.
