Afrojack Reveals Early Music Career Impacted Mental Health
Afrojack, a famous DJ, is coming to India for a tour.
He talks about how he started making music when he was just 11 years old.
He says this had both good and bad effects on his life.
Starting so early gave him a head start, but it also made him feel alone and affected his mental health.
He has worked with other famous musicians like David Guetta and Pitbull.
Afrojack is excited to perform in India one last time before he starts working on new music.
He also talks about how he and his partner, Elettra Lamborghini, support each other's music but work separately.
Afrojack is performing in Mumbai, Bengaluru, and New Delhi from November 28-30, 2023.
He started making music at 11 and DJing at 15, which impacted his mental health.
These shows will be his last in India for a long time as he works on a new project.
He has collaborated with David Guetta, Martin Garrix, and Pitbull on various hits.
