Global Rockstar allows musicians from all over the world to compete against each other, with the winners being selected through the number of votes they receive.

Over the past few months, The Spellz have gained recognition, not only in Pakistan but also internationally. The duo’s fusion of Punjabi and Urdu lyrics with rock is refreshing and has helped them establish a loyal and growing fan base.

Speaking about winning the title, lead vocalist of The Spellz, Nas said: “I am very happy that people around the world have loved our efforts so far. We need your continued love and support to represent Pakistan on the national and international level through inspirational music. My commitment is to represent our country in the best way possible. So please continue to vote for us in December so that we may win this global competition.”
