(SPOT.ph) If you thought you knew who Shanti Dope is, think again. The 20-year-old rapper and songwriter burst onto the scene with his 2018 hit song, "Nadarang." In just a few short years, Shanti Dope (a.k.a. Sean Patrick Ramos) has become the storyteller of his generation, masterfully weaving complex rhymes with sick beats. But there’s more to him than just his music.

In Episode 2 of the OG video series on OPM dubbed OG Presents: Shanti Dope, trace Shanti Dope’s roots and get to know the poet and peacemaker behind the superstar rapper. This episode also goes into how Shanti Dope handles fame and fortune at such a tender age, and what keeps him grounded amidst all of the distractions of an industry obsessed with flashy lifestyles. Plus, get an inside look at the making of "Amatz"—yes, that song that was heard around the world when it was featured in Marvel's The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.
