Music composer and actor Hip Hop Adhi has had a special year as he made his acting and directorial debut with 'Meesaya Murukku'. And now, it has emerged that he made it to YouTube's 2017 list of Top Music Creation Spotlight. Adhi is by far the only South Indian to be named in the list, and is deservedly on cloud nine for being chosen along the likes of Ed Sheeran and Luis Fonsi.

He shared the news on Instagram with a caption that read, “We still remember the days we would sit and upload songs after songs on YouTube thinking one day we might make it big. We started from the bottom now we here. Just because of your love we are here.” Adhi's journey from an independent artist to an actor is certainly an inspiration. He started off with a band along side Jeeva, called Hip Hop Thamizha and went on to become famous with his song Club le Mubbu le.

He soon co-starred in songs composed by Anirudh Ravichander, and became a music director with Aambala. It was only a matter of time until he became one of the sought-after music directors in Kollywood. His latest film 'Meesaya Murukku' received critical acclaim and also brought in profits.
