Iraj is Sri Lanka’s maestro of hip-hop and the island’s new generation star. Going where no local star has gone before, Iraj has amazed Sri Lanka’s music moguls through his unprecedented climb to the helm of the island’s entertainment industry. His amazing track record of number one singles, a consecutive series of top ten hits, and his debut number one album ‘Iraj’ and his follow up number one album – ‘Chapter Two Aloke’ has made him go beyond a local household name, into an internationally recognized and celebrated icon.
Iraj has his own TV show on DERANA TV " DA IRAJ SHOW" on Fridays from 6.00pm to 7.00pm
Iraj is also the first Sri Lankan music artist to have entered into the Kollywood Music Industry. His first South Indian composition together with Vijay Anthony featured in the movie Veittakarran staring Kollywood superstar Vijay ranked number one in the Chennai Charts and as a result Iraj is currently contracted to compose for his forth South Indian movie.
These records are but a fraction of the phenomenal success of Iraj, who has developed over the years into a brand itself. Dubbed by analysts and critics as the revolutionary of the Sri Lankan music industry, Iraj’s success saw him drawn into a record breaking series of merchandising and marketing campaigns.

The tour saw Iraj performing to packed audiences at the Sydney Opera House, Melbourne, London, LA , Paris , New York, Cyprus, Korea , Male, Seoul, Doha and Dubai – strengthening his fan base and promoting Sri Lankan music the world over.
