Some Lesser Known Facts About Vedan (Rapper)
His mother is from Jaffna, Sri Lanka.
Vedan grew up in Swapnabhoomi, a residential place near the Thrissur railway station.
After finishing his school education, he worked in construction.
Later, Vedan got a job as a studio assistant for the film editor and director B Ajith Kumar in Thiruvananthapuram.
In 2016, Vedan appeared in a small role in the Malayalam film Kammattipaadam, which was directed by Rajeev Ravi. The film starred Dulquer Salman and Vinayakan .

During that time, he got interested in rap music. He was influenced by Tupac Shakur, a famous American rapper.
When Vedan started making music, he chose the name Vedan because people in his community were village hunters. According to him, they ended up being hunted themselves.
In 2020, he became famous after his Malayalam song Voice of the Voiceless was released on YouTube.
He wrote the song based on the years of discrimination faced by his community.
Vedan shared the song with his friends and chose to rap the lyrics because it was a way Black people in other countries expressed their struggles and fought for their rights.
The music video of the song was directed by Akhil Ramachandran, and Hrithwik Sasikumar worked as a cameraman.
The children in the video were from Vedan’s colony.
The video started with a red colour tone and ended in blue, while Vedan wore a black shirt. The visuals brought together ideas of Marx, B. R. Ambedkar , and Periyar, who were all known for fighting against caste and class injustice.
Vedan once shared that his music reflects his political views. In the song, he expressed that the country was led by fake patriots, and the leader travelled using public money without any worry.
Once, in a media conversation, he talked about the inspiration behind the song Voice of the Voiceless. He said that he grew up in a place where people faced discrimination based on their caste and colour. They lacked proper meals and a house. He said,
It’s what I have seen around me, happening to the people in the colony that I grew up in. Discriminated for long for their caste and colour. They are the people living without basic needs – proper nutrition or even a safe house. I live there. My music has to be in my place, about the people who live there.”

In 2021, after releasing the song Narabali in the film Nayattu, he wrote and sang many songs, including La Vida in the 2023 film KARAM, Kisses in the Clouds in the 2024 film All We Imagine as Light, and Kuthanthram in the 2024 film Manjummel Boys.
Vedan was a big fan of actors Kamal Hassan and Dhanush while growing up.
He has watched Mani Ratnam’s film Raavanan more than 150 times.
After becoming famous, he chose to live a simple life, which keeps his music real.
Reportedly, Vedan faced a lot of criticism, including death threats and abusive comments, when he started rapping. He also received physical threats.
He writes his lyrics in Malayalam and Tamil.
He often performs live with many renowned South Indian singers.
