'I’m in love with a Kulasthree' rave on social media; ThirumaLi opens new world of melodic rap
When ThirumaLi first heard the beat, the words “I’m in love with a Kulasthree” came to him naturally, a spontaneous freestyle that set the tone for what would become a romantic and soulful track. From the very beginning, Kulasthree carried a tender, emotional vibe, capturing the essence of pure soulful and almost divine affection toward a woman. Rooted in the imagination and fantasy of ThirumaLi, Kulasthree paints a picture of love.
Interestingly, the track was created nearly four years ago by ThirumaLi and producer Thudwiser. At the time, they believed its melodic rap and slow-paced rhythm wouldn’t resonate with listeners, as it deviated from the usual high-energy hip-hop sound. Now, with changing tastes and a more open audience, ThirumaLi felt it was finally the right moment to release the song, confident that it would find its true listeners.
Known for his sharp, witty, and socially conscious tracks, ThirumaLi admits that romantic music isn’t typically his comfort zone. Despite being a fan of love songs, he often doubted whether his voice suited the genre. Yet, Kulasthree became an opportunity to explore melody in his own way. The result is a fusion of South Indian musical influences and Western R&B, a rare sound that stands out for its emotional depth and beautifully mixes both worlds.
