Hussain often said that his musical journey began soon after he was born in Bombay, recalling a tradition of a father whispering a prayer into his newborn's ear. Instead, his father chose to sing him rhythms. 'My mother was very upset and said, 'Why are you doing this?' And he said, 'Because this is my prayer.'' This early emphasis on rhythm profoundly influenced his development as a tabla maestro and musician.
Hussain, recognized not only for his performances but also for his teaching passion, has dedicated himself to spreading appreciation for Indian drumming. His global collaborations with artists from diverse genres reflect his belief that music transcends cultural boundaries.
