Soroush Lashkari (born 1985/Persian: سروش لشگری) better known by his stage name Hichkas (Persian: هیچکس) is one of the pioneers of rap in Iran [cite web |url=http://www.makemusicnotwar.org/issues/soundresistance_iran.php |title=IRAN: HISTORIES OF MUSICAL RESISTANCE] . He graduated from Raoof High School in Tehran in 2003. His stage name means "Nobody" in Persian. He started the group 021 to introduce Tehran-based rappers music roughly five years ago. He used the Tehran city area code as the name, and he made it a symbol for Tehran in rap.

His first songs were mostly in English and about social problems in Iran. Then he began rapping in Persian because it is easier for him to express his feelings in it. After releasing some songs, HichKas started to experiment with different styles in rap, and now listeners can hear a different style in each of his songs. He mixed Persian traditional instruments with hip hop beats, and joined Reveal to mix his Persian style with western hip hop. He has also had songs on different subjects like unity in "Baa Ham", treachery in "Pedar Khaandeh", and duets with artists like Saman (Wilson) from Zedbazi in "Vase Har Irani".

His first album, "Jangal e Asfalt" translated as Asphalt Jungle, featured 11 new songs and was composed and produced by the Iranian hip hop producer, Mahdyar Aghajani. The album has also featured British Iranian rapper Reveal from Poisonous Poets on a number of its songs. It was released on iTunes first and then became available to buy from his official website for a limited time.

In 2008 Hichkas released his first official video for the song Ye Mosht Sarbaz (a bunch of soldiers). An amateur video was previously done for the song Tirippe Maa.
