He is one of the premier hip hop artists in Iranian underground music movement and considered to be as one of the 50 most influential people in the culture of the Middle East, by Huffington Post. His most recent album, Good Mistake, is the first Iranian concept album ever made inspired by reverse chronology as the storytelling method. Good Mistake explores the inspirational collision of passion and reason inside the mind approaching another self, and tells a story that calls for consciousness, change and challenging old beliefs. It’s a self-released project published through all digital music channels on 4th of July 2015, made a Hot Shot Debut and ranked #4 on Billboard's Top World Albums Chart. Bahram’s first breakthrough hit was a single track called Nameyee Be Rayees Jomhoor (Letter to The President) written in the form of an open letter to former president of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, criticizing him explicitly in the political repression in Iran in 2007. His widely successful debut album, 24 Sa’at (24 Hours), known for its reflective and empathetic lyricism, released in August 2008 including the track Inja Irane (Here’s Iran) which is called “A powerful commentary on modern-day of Iran”, by Rolling Stone magazine. His outspokenness in his social criticisms landed him a week in Evin prison, known for housing political prisoners, but won him a large following for his second studio album called Sokoot (Silence). A smooth musical collage containing musical samples from Iranian traditional and folk music combined with old school hip hop grooves fortified by cultural and artistic references to some of the most notable Iranian modern poets such as Ahmad Shamloo and Forough Farrokhzad. Bahram Nouraei is currently living in Stockholm, Sweden.
