9. Saahel

We love Instagram ‘cause it has given a platform to everyone to showcase their abundant talents and man we’re losing it now. Saahel is the singer who came up with the Hindi version of the popular IG trends like Stay, Arcade, Love Nwantiti, Beggin and more and we’re legit baffled at the talent. His voice is SO soulful and we can’t help but listen to it on repeat!
