Dhee - I Wear My Roots Like a Medal

[@INsty23]

This song healed second-generation citizens living aboard who are stuck in the middle . Thank you, dhee. Your voice is a gift to our people .

[@trksraja]

Can you elaborate...why u. Feel you stuck ? Actually even I feel stuck as I moved from native to Chennai ...so probably we ain't stuck or something...nobody can stay in same place for ever

[@INsty23]

@trksraja When I was younger, being called a "fob" felt like the worst insult. As an immigrant, all I wanted was to fit in, to blend into a world where everyone seemed to be striving to be like the "white man." I saw it in so many others like me-Indians who pretended not to know their own language, who distanced themselves from their roots just to avoid standing out. I did the same. I tried so hard to blend in, to erase parts of myself, but the price I paid was steep. I lost myself, spiraling into depression, caught between two worlds-neither fully embracing my heritage nor fitting into the one I was trying to conform to. But now, things have changed. If someone calls me a "fob" today, I wear it like a badge of honor. I’ve learned to embrace my roots, to celebrate them. And as I’ve grown to love and accept who I truly am, I've noticed something incredible: others have begun to respect me more too, not because I was trying to please them, but because I stopped trying to hide.

The perspective shift I had after really understanding what "Khaki ain't my colour! Camo ain't a style" means in terms of the history of the Srilankan Tamils and the politics. Massive respect.

[@narayanchandramohanty6214]

Hey... can you explain what it really means?

[@radhugasree4296]

There was a big civil war where srilankan tamils were asked to leave srilanka and were tortured and killed so they had to fight bag and they wore military uniform khaki and camo she's saying honestly don't want any war like that and hinting at that by saying that uniform doesn't suit. Basically she's embracing her srilankan origins in this song saying she proudly would wear it like a medal. Telling about their staple food she's saying she can't leave her culture behind it is printed in her body even when mind is on the future.​@@narayanchandramohanty6214

My love for Tamilians grows more after I have left chennai . I was there for 11 years completing my higher secondary school , ug and pg and the few years with my TASMAC machas 😂miss those golden years. Tamilians I should say are the best humans I have ever met till today. Honest, caring , no racist , very helpful and hardworking. Iam now married but one fine day I will surely visit the chennai. I miss those kolumbu, rasam, sambar, dosa, idli, biryani , Pongal, curd rice etc etc… all the food is too good…. 🤤…. Lots of love from nagaland ….

[@saumit88]

Word my brother.

I first began to know you through "Mainaru Vetti Katti," and from that moment, I was drawn to your songs. Each one resonates with the beauty of our shared heritage and the enduring strength of Asian roots. This particular song is a powerful reminder of where we come from-our shared histories, the struggles, the triumphs, and the rich traditions that run through your veins as they do mine. As a Burmese person, I feel deeply connected to the stories and experiences that have shaped us. You, with your vibrant reflection of Indian culture, carry forward the legacy of those who came before us. In you, I see a beautiful tapestry woven from the threads of history, tradition, and a unique spirit that defies the boundaries often imposed by society. Your identity is not just a blend of cultures; it’s a bold statement of resistance and pride in who you are. I am incredibly proud of how you embrace your identity, not just as a reflection of the past but as a beacon for the future. In a world that often tries to define us by narrow standards, you stand tall, embodying the rich diversity and strength that our roots have given us. 🥰 Much love and respect for the incredible person you are becoming. Keep shining, keep celebrating your roots, and always remember that your voice is powerful, your identity is sacred, and you are deeply loved. I look forward to hearing more of your lovely voice. With admiration and affection, A Boy from Burma 🤩

[@abhinavbanerjee3963]

Dear Dhee, Amidst all the negative comments unfortunately coming your way from those whose taste in music has been damaged beyond repair, I hope this one brings a little bit of a smile on your face. I am an ardent admirer of yours as an artist, and have been for a whie - you are the first I have seen in years who is as much a deep storyteller as she is a musician / artist par excellence. Enjoy Enjaami was the first of yours I heard, and for the first time I felt here was a song that actually DESERVED to go viral - what with how rich it was in every department. And now there's this one. I'm fortunate to have grown up in the motherland, but I did move cities a bit; so for what it's worth, I do understand the struggles of coming to terms with your identity , which would be amplified a thousand times more for those actually living away from the motherland. The messaging is brilliant, your singing is great (your classical training shines through even in English - the phrasing could not have been easy), and the music is next level amazing (the crescendos coming in from the low end around "I can't leave here, I stay put", "Khaaki ain't my color", and the final "the past is written on my body, my future is all in my mind" is just *chef's kiss*). You and Santhosh sir are an amazing father-daughter duo and a match made in heaven. Please continue to gift us more of such music, even if the naysayers do not appreciate it at the moment. Your songs are built for longevity and to incite / stir up something deep inside of a listener when they're ready to receive their magic. Will remain forever an admirer!

[@User-j2n5z]

Can u explain the "khaki aint my colour" does it have something to do with Police

[@abhinavbanerjee3963]

@@User-j2n5z I think it can be interpreted in either of two ways. One, that Khaki as a colour in uniforms was actually not ours historically - it is a bequest of the British, and has been worn more by them, the Nazi Germany forces, et al historically; yet has come to be associated with us (because khaki = earth / dirt = obviously India, or some such bs logic). So it's a call to correct a popular cultural misrepresentation. The other interpretation could be that India was never the kind of land / culture to have to engage in heavy policing / military warfare (hence the following line in the song: "Camo ain't a style", where camo = camouflage patterned army uniforms). Ours has forever been a tolerant nation, so the fact that there's heavy police presence and military activity is not something that we should be proud of. These are the two ways I could perceive it - any alternate interpretations welcome.

I cried seeing and hearing this Song! It is always a great attribute to Wear your roots like a medal! About this music, the video, DHEE and the Dancers! It's mind blowing and truly Aesthetic! What a concept and the LYRICS are outstanding and they have a deeper Inner Meaning and if you are in shackles and what Redl Freedom feels like after shedding all the unwanted baggages in ur life and one more line which talks about Generational Trauma and the pain of the past in her body but her soul is healed and free! OMG could u find a better way of describing Trauma and Freedom! Who csn forget Jaffna and the Trauma of Srilankan Tamils! Way to Go Dhee! You deserve a greater elevation in the Music Industry! Best Wishes!

👇🏼👇🏼These lines have opened doors for a new adaptation to my life. Thanks Dhee, especially for writing these lines 👇🏼👇🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 I met a girl named Karma she said “traveller, skip the line”, led the way to baggage drop then, I flew leaving no footprints behind for the first time I tasted freedom abandoned them baggages never went to claim em’ My past is written on my body My future is all in my mind 'BAGGAGE DROP' - this has become a philosophical phrase for life🙏🏼🙏🏼Thanks again...
