Bakhtawar Bhutto Zardari, the 18-year-old daughter of slain former Pakistani premier Benazir Bhutto, has poured out her anguish at the death of her mother by writing and performing a rap song in her memory.
Bakhtawar, who was introduced to Grammy award-winning rapper Puff Daddy shortly before Benazir was assassinated in December 2007, sings about the pain she and her family felt at the sudden and shocking death of her mother in the song titled "I Would Take The Pain Away".
"Dear mom, I've got a few things to say to you...things I never got a chance to say... But if I could have you...
I would take the pain away, I would take the pain, I would take the pain away..." goes the five-minute song with a rap set against hip hop beats.
The song is currently being aired on state-run PTV and has been posted on YouTube.
