“I hope you’ll stay with me on this journey.”
Singer and digital creator Mahtim Shakib has launched his new storytelling series Mahtim on the Mic on his new YouTube channel.
The first episode has already premiered and has generated positive feedback from fans.
Best known for his emotionally resonant songs and soft, expressive vocals, Mahtim now ventures into narrative storytelling formats.
In a short announcement video, he described the series as an effort to explore “real stories” through visuals, poetry, drama and music.
Mahtim said: “In this channel, I want to present real stories.”
The singer added that they may appear in varied creative formats.
He explained: “They might be told through different mediums, sometimes with pictures, sometimes with acting, or with poetry or music.
“Thus ‘Mahtim on the Mic’ is one such storytelling format I’m trying out. I have many more formats in mind.”
The singer concluded his message: “I hope you’ll stay with me on this journey.”
