Qami Pchi
Great ... I'm in Canada, and the first Armenian track I arranged and produced has apparently become a huge hit in Armenia.
I'm constantly being emailed by people telling me that the song is playing all over Yerevan, in every internet cafe, in marshrutkas, and is being used as a ringtone for cellulars.
At first, someone stole the song and started copying and selling pirated cds. On top of that they credited the song to Hay Tgheq featuring Sirusho. Unfortunately all this happened after I left Armenia, and so I couldn't do much about it. But within a couple of weeks, the members of the group put together a video, which they directed themselves, and everyone now knows who the real artist is.
The group is called HAYQ and the song is called Qami Pchi. The members are all in their late teens.

Very nice, actually. Strange mix of ugl pahogh and ghetto fabulous,
somehow it works. Whos the black dude in the clip? Local patris lumumba or LA implant? I am amazed at good quality stuff that came out of Armenia these couple years, I was blown away by hay tgherq, bunch of new rabiz was impressive also.
keep up a good work
The black guy is Hurant, who was adopted by an Armenian woman. I've heard Hurant sing last summer and this song does not show what he can really do. If I were DerHova, I would have Hurant and his sister do a song together.
I have literally played this song over 25 times today, I love it! Can't wait to get back to Armenia this summer, and hear it all over!
BADASS!!! beautiful song.. my favorite part is the clock thingy... ABSOLUTE GENIUS!!!! the video is really good too... great job DerHova!!!!!!! Armenia is gonna be the new hotspot for good music soon now that they have you!!!
This is a wnoderful song... I am absolutely in LOVE with it..
And I have a question: is Hrant armenian or half-armenian??
I adore his voice!!!!!!!!!

Thank you guys for the positive feedback. Hope our future recordings will be as successful.
First anonymous: I agree with you, Hrant is a wonderful singer. This song doesn't do his voice justice, but I'm hoping we can show off what he's capable of in the future. Recording sessions were a real pain at times. Remember, they're all a bunch of teens with no patience, constantly mocking each other, cell phones going off while recording, etc. The guys were driving Hrant nuts, and the poor guy could hardly focus.
As far as Hrant and his sister, I had proposed the idea a while back, but haven't followed up on it yet. I'll mention it again when I return to Armenia.
Second anonymous: As far as I'm aware Hrant has 0% Armenian blood, but still very Armenian in every other way. Props go out to him for recently joining the army and defending our country.
Hey this song Qami Pchi im honestly addicted to ive listened to this song a billion times i know it by heart... the guys in the group are sooo hott wow im in love lol. I cant wait til the cd comes out ill definitely buy that album when it comes out. The Producer DerHova im actually a huge fan of i loved him in Temperance and i love him even more now his music just seems to be getting better and better every year... he opened new doors for armenian music... the clock ticking and the hervoum zurnen pchoum sick sick. DerHova if u did the song for Andre "Without Your Love" it would be soo much hotter. Well DerHova Tserkerout Talar... i hope to be hearing more from u in the future

Amazing work. Hats off to Der Hova and all the talented artists.
I've never even come closing to supporting, let alone liking, any product of armenian hip hop/rap, but this one did it.
Haradevootyoon!
damn this song is sick. I can see that these guys are really talented. Props to the black guy. I heard that the song is really famous in Armenia and i saw at least 20 people bumping this song in Glendale today.
Keep it up
