Honey Singh “Gabru”
It’s a video’s job to make you like a song that you may have passed over while skimming through an album. For me, this video did just that.
Yo Yo Honey Singh “Dope Shope”
By now, you must all have a favourite Yo Yo Honey Singh produced track. From as recent as Lakk 28, Jaan Mangdi, Chaska, to as far back as his initial work with Diljit. It was his hard hitting beats, that you really didnt expect to hear from someone that (even though he is from the UK) produces all his tracks in India.
That being said, I saw the lineup he had on his own debut album, and I was for once genuinely excited to see how he would manage to rip my speakers.
Going by the above video though, and checking out the album “International Villager” which was released today, I can honestly say that there really aren’t that many “Dope Shope” tracks on the album. I found two that I can vibe with (Malkit’s “Beautiful” and “Meet Malkit’s “Garaari”). But for how long I can vibe with them is anyone’s guess.
However, you can preview, form an opinion for yourself, and buy the album from iTunes.
Alfaaz featuring Honey Singh “Haye Mera Dil”
I rarely post songs coming from India. But at times, a song comes along where I just have to post it up.
You may have seen this walking by your television while Zee TV is on.
Personally, I think this is one of Honey Singh’s best produced tracks. (Although truthfully speaking, I may not have heard his entire discography.)
Jassi Sidhu “Jaan Manghdi” Video
Jassi Sidhu dropped videos number three and four (below) this weekend, from his album “Singing Between The Lines”.
Jassi has stated that this will be his final album, and he has clearly put in a lot of work into it with not only working with a wide range of well known producers, but shooting videos for the album all over the globe. For some reason, I can’t help but feel like this is his “Black Album” of sorts. However, I don’t feel like he will come out of his “retirement” to make more albums.
Jaan Manghdi features the production skills of Honey Singh, and his production is not only a different flair of Bhangra, but for this song, it is spot on.
And for those keeping track; Jaan Manghdi > Naa Rukiyeh > Nai Reesa > Oh Jatta
