The Story Behind

In 2024, Grammy-winning musician Ricky Kej embarked on a meaningful collaboration with Nobel Peace Prize laureate Kailash Satyarthi on a four-city concert tour across India. The tour raised funds for Satyarthi's "Satyarthi Movement for Global Compassion", a global initiative that champions compassion as a driving force for justice, equality, peace, and sustainability. This partnership was a natural fit, given Ricky's dedication to creating music that sparks positive social impact. The tour's resounding success allowed Ricky to spend valuable time with Kailash Satyarthi, both at the concert venues and at his Bal Ashram – a sanctuary that provides love, care, and protection to children, empowering them to grow and advocate for the rights of those who suffer in silence.

Through in-depth conversations and discussions, Ricky and Kailash discovered a shared reverence for Mahatma Gandhi, India's father of the nation. Kailash, a lifelong follower of Gandhi's principles, brought a deep understanding of the leader's life and ideals to the table. This shared respect sparked the idea for the album "Gandhi – Mantras of Compassion", a new-age musical tribute that blends melodies beloved by Gandhi with original compositions inspired by his timeless ideals. To bring this vision to life, Ricky collaborated with over 200 musicians from more than 40 countries, including dear friends Tina Guo, a Chinese-American virtuoso cellist, and Masa Takumi, a Grammy Award-winning shamisen player from Japan. The result is a truly global musical homage to one of humanity's greatest leaders.
