Top Pakistani tracks of 2022

This year too, the Pakistani music industry has a considerable share in presenting hit songs. 

This year we have witnessed some of the most talented Pakistani artists who have dominated our playlists this entire year. 

Without any doubt, this year’s music has not disappointed fans across the country.

We saw individuals moving to the songs like Pasoori and Kahani Suno, as well as learnt a lot about new music from and their listening habits. Asim Azhar’s Habibi was also among the most-heard songs of the year. 

So, as we celebrate the winners of the year, including Arooj Aftab, without whom Pakistan would not have received its first Grammy, and Ali Sethi, without whom Pakistani pop music would not have attracted the big international audience it did this year, we also take a look back at the underdogs of the world who established their own paths in 2022 and contributed to the richness of Pakistani pop culture. 

These musicians have embraced a contemporary approach to the production of music focusing on cultural importance, lyrics, and video production style. It has made their work more commercially viable and advanced. 

Here are the top five tracks of the year 2022:

Pasoori (Ali Sethi & Shae Gill)

Kahaani Suno 2.0’ (Kaifi Khalil)

Iraaday (Abdul Hanan & Rovalio)

Habibi (Asim Azhar)

‘Faltu Pyar’ (Natasha Noorani & Hasan Raheem)
