Closing out this Singapore season of #NMERadarSessions is rapper Fariz Jabba, who takes us through his longtime home of Geylang Serai. The vibrant district has not only seen him come of age – it’s also witnessed his rise through the ranks of Singapore hip-hop and his continuing growth as an artist, helped by friends and collaborators such as Akid Amir.
