Wicked Sunny Opens A New Chapter With Times Music Through “Long Way From Home,” The First Single From Debut EP The Local Kid

Wicked Sunny opens a new chapter in his musical journey with “Long Way From Home,” the first single from his debut EP The Local Kid, released via Times Music. Featuring MC Square and
Radhika Bhide, the track captures the emotions of leaving home, chasing dreams in a new city, and finding yourself stuck between where you came from and where you are headed. Known for
his sharp writing and distinct voice in Indian hip-hop, the Prayagraj-born, Mumbai-based artist brings one of his most personal songs yet with this release.

The Local Kid is a five-track journal of a small-town kid navigating life in the big city, the wins nobody clapped for, the losses he tried to laugh off, and the long stretches of silence in between.
The EP opens with the homesickness of “Long Way From Home” and unfolds across “Baawre,” “Big Drama,” and “Laal,” before closing with “Udta Teer.” Each track carries its own world, and
the EP is best experienced in sequence.

Wicked Sunny added, “Long Way From Home is the most honest thing I have written. There is still a version of me sitting in a room in Prayagraj thinking Mumbai is too far away. This song is for that boy, and for every kid who packed a bag with more hope than money.”

MC Square shared, “The moment Sunny played me the track, I connected with it instantly. There’s a certain loneliness and hunger in the song that felt very familiar to me. I wanted my verse
to sound lived-in and truthful, and I think we created something people will genuinely feel.”

Radhika Bhide added, “There’s a quiet ache in this song that stayed with me from the very first listen. I wanted the hook to feel intimate and comforting, almost like a voice from home you hold
on to during difficult days. Collaborating with Sunny on this felt incredibly special.”

“Long Way From Home” is now available on all streaming platforms. Watch the official music video on Times Music’s YouTube channel.
