Rapper Abhishek Baisla, who is better known by his stage name MC Square, has proved his mettle by giving a tough battle to his co-contestants and bagging the trophy of `Hustle 2.0`. After receiving much appreciation from judge and famous rapper Badshah, the 23-year-old is on cloud nine and opens up about his journey from being a son of a farmer to a winner on the rap-based reality show. "Coming from a farming background it was a little tough for me as in our area they don`t even know what is hip hop or rap. Plus I come from a family where even talking about hip-hop and all is not considered decent and it took me a lot of time to convince my family regarding my rapping career." Abhishek is a civil engineer by profession but his first love always remains music.

"When I was pursuing my B. Tech degree, I was only thinking about what can I write next and how can I be better at music... I was quite good at my studies. Just because as an artist, I knew how to think and do something logically and studies came to me naturally." He never took formal training in his chosen career. "I don`t have any formal training regarding music or rap, I used to listen to a lot of poets and rappers. I started off by writing poems and then slowly I tried to be more professional." Recalling his first day on the show, MC Square adds: "I was not nervous at all because this chance for me was like one in a million shots, and I just knew that I was gonna kill it.
