About AKASHIK

AKASHIK is an independent music label based in Singapore, and its YouTube channel showcases the work of Tamil and English hip hop artist Lady Kash. The channel publishes music videos, lyric videos, and live performance recordings, with a catalog of 41 videos built since 2013. Titles and descriptions point to a bilingual audience that follows Tamil rap and South Asian pop-influenced hip hop.

The channel has about 87,000 subscribers and a median of roughly 4,800 views per video, with its strongest uploads reaching six figures. Viewers are estimated to be concentrated in India, with meaningful audiences in the United States and Southeast Asia, and the mix leans toward young adults who stream music. Uploads have paused for over a year, so the channel works best for campaigns tied to music releases rather than steady weekly reach.

Brand work is not visible in the catalog, and the channel has no recorded sponsorships. Estimated integration rates are $150 to $250 per video, which works out to roughly $20 to $35 per 1,000 median views. Paid ads commonly run at $10 to $30 CPM, so this is a premium comparison. Audio, music tech and cultural brands targeting Tamil listeners are the best fit.
