His debut album ‘Arash’ was released by Warner Music Sweden in June 2005. The singles ‘Boro Boro’ and ‘Temptation’ made it to the hit lists around Europe and the accompanying videos gathered significant airplay on more than thirty-five MTV outlets across the world. Arash’s records have been certified gold or platinum in many countries. He won the 2005 International Music Market Award in Cannes as Sweden's most successful debut artist and his number one smash hit ‘Boro Boro’ was included in the blockbuster Bollywood flick ‘Bluffmaster’, which also featured Arash in his big-screen cameo debut.
In 2006, ‘FIFA World Cup ballad’ (an official song for Iranian Football team), was regarded as one of the best three such songs of the year by the world-renowned sports magazine ‘Sports Illustrated’. Later in 2006, he won two Grammys in Russia and was recognised as the top import artist in the whole of the Russian Federation.
In 2008 Arash released his third studio album ‘Donya’. It featured a global sound that injects the listener with a lethal rhythm of western production and mediterranean harmony. The first single, ‘Donya’, is a collaboration with Jamaican-American reggae singer SHAGGY, whose career has been defined by a string of platinum-selling US singles in the last decade. The 14-track record also included ‘Kandi’, which featured US radio darling and international phenomenon LUMIDEE. ‘Dasa Bala’, featuring Swedish rap pioneer and certified hitmaster Timbuktu; and ‘Pure Love’, a duet with Helena, which went onto become the top selling single of the year in Russia.
In 2009 Arash participated in the Eurovision Song Contest with the song ‘Always’ and took the 3rd place. A year later, he was again making waves with the song ‘Broken Angel’, (a sequel to ‘Pure Love’). The single earned the top spot in the Hot 100 and become the best selling single of 2010 in Eastern Europe. In December, he released the official song for the 2011 Men’s Handball World Championship, ‘Glorious’.
In 2012 Arash made his film debut in the movie ‘Rhino Season’ (which starred the Italian actress Monica Bellucci). It went on to win the Asia Pacific Screen Award and the Prize of the Jury for Best Cinematography in the 2012 San Sebastian International Film Festival.
In the beginning of 2013, ‘She Makes Me Go’ (a promotional single featuring Sean Paul), had climbed into the top-5 charts in Sweden, Germany, Italy, France, Belgium, Austria and Greece. By the summer of 2013 Arash was embarking on a number of prestigious live shows and festivals around Europe.
For his next release, Arash worked with his long-term music producer Robert Uhlmann. In September 2014 he released his fourth studio album ‘Superman’. It included the single ‘Sex Love Rock n Roll (SLR)’ on which the American R&B star T-Pain guested. In support of the album, Arash embarked on a World tour in 2015 and 2016, with sold-out dates throughout the USA, Asia and Europe.

una na na na na na
unana unana
hey hey hey hey come on!
(service kardi!) unana!
(Timbuktu):
four be the simpelest,
Imma ride the hard roll,
when it's more then the instruments,
more chat then your messages,
bored on the internet,
more rap then anything you can store on your intellect,
i'm saying it, thinking it,
i'm tired of you bickering,
I'm tired, i'm not listening it,
why you keep on whispering,
you're blabering is leading
up on nothing, wont you nothing,
while i'm sitting there and whishing that you would shut up or something,
wont you please,
give that mouth of yours a rest,
I need some peace, so you can see the door instead,
It's been a couple of hours now give me a break, 'cause I've got no interest in anything that you say!
(Arash):
Na na na na na,
bas kon harf nazan, (Thats enough, Don't Speak)
khastam ghor nazan. (I'm tired, stop complaining)
(say na na na)
Na na na na na,
bas kon harf nazan,
khastam ghor nazan.
(Whistling melodi)
(Timbuktu):
Now every time I see you,
even call me on the telephone,
And I can take it easy,
if you're leaving me the hell alone,
why you wont cease and assist
with the speach from your lips,
'cause i just see no reason for this,
my head has spining,
all I want to do is relax,
why wont you take the man,
and find somebody new to attack?
now get up of my ear,
and get up and get going,
so i can kick my feet up and,
enjoy this next moment
(Arash):
Na na na na na,
bas kon harf nazan,
khastam ghor nazan.
(say na na na)
Na na na na na,
bas kon harf nazan,
khastam ghor nazan.
(oh nay) Kheili tuye kafam man,
(oh nay) kheili tuye kafam man,

('cause i'm tired to hear, when you're talking to my ear, oh nay)
Na na na na na,
bas kon harf nazan,

The song "Baskon" by Arash and Timbuktu is an upbeat tune that centers around the topic of annoying people and the desire to be left alone. Timbuktu begins the song by comparing the various ways people handle certain situations and expressing his preference for the more challenging route. He then critiques someone's repetitive talking and lack of substance in their communication. Arash then chimes in to echo the sentiment, imploring the person to "Thats enough, Don't Speak" and complaining about the tiredness and frustration he feels from constantly hearing them talk.
Timbuktu continues his verse by stating that he can handle it better if they would simply leave him alone, instead of always being in his ear. He suggests they find someone else to direct their energy towards, so he can minimize the drama and relax. Arash uses his verse to further communicate his exhaustion and desire for silence. He then finishes the song with a group of impressive whistle notes.
Overall, "Baskon" is a light-hearted take on a universally relatable issue with a catchy beat and energetic performance.
