Rapper and singer Hanumankind is set to bring his Asia Tour 2026 to Malaysia this May!

The Kerala-born, Houston-raised artist, whose real name is Sooraj Cherukat, will take the stage at JioSpace on 12 May. Known for his commanding stage presence and razor-sharp flow, Hanumankind has quickly become one of the most exciting new voices in global hip-hop.

Much of that momentum came from the viral success of his breakout track ‘Big Dawgs’, a swaggering anthem that racked up millions of streams and lit up social media, alongside his widely shared ‘Victory Lap’ verse that further cemented his reputation online.

With a style that blends Indian influences with Western hip-hop sensibilities, the rapper has carved out a lane that feels both global and distinctly his own.

The Malaysian show is part of a short regional run across Asia.

Before arriving in Petaling Jaya, Hanumankind will perform in Hong Kong on 9 May at TIDES, followed by a stop in Bangkok on 10 May at ambience space. The tour will then wrap up in Singapore on 13 May at Foochow.

Despite still being early in his career, Hanumankind has already appeared on major stages around the world, including Coachella, where his high-octane performances and charismatic delivery have earned him growing international attention.

His debut mixtape Monsoon Season further showcases his versatility, featuring collaborations with heavyweight artists such as A$AP Rocky, Denzel Curry, and Maxo Kream.

With over 70 million streams on Spotify and more than 50 million views on YouTube, Hanumankind’s live shows promise a high-energy mix of viral hits, sharp lyricism, and festival-level intensity.

Fans can now sign up for pre-sale tickets ahead of the Malaysia show.
