About
Suri released Nehru Jackets in collaboration with SEVA NY to draw attention to the redistricting battle in Queens, New York.[6] Guests on Nehru Jackets include Despot, Danny Brown, Childish Gambino, and Fat Tony.[8] In an interview with Rolling Stone, Suri explained the creation process: "with Mike [Finito], I just kind of let him do his thing. I told him I wanted Indian stuff, and he cooked it up. Mike just gave me, like, 40 beats and I fucked with whatever I liked."[9] The album has received positive reviews, including a score of 8/10 from Spin magazine.[5] The mixtape's cover is a parody of the packaging of Parle-G biscuits.[10]
