BhangRap

UK/North America based bhangra ('Bhungraa', as in cockney, not 'Bhaangraa' as in Hindi) groups seem to going the hip hop way, big time. Almost all of their music videos show the singer/s (& others in the entrouge) riding around in the latest cars & SUVs, while incorporating a lot of rap lyrics in the songs. While going along with the latest Bling things is OK to an extent, if overdone, some of these genuinely talented guys may just become a Bling-Bling sideshow of their more illustrious hip hop counterparts. Given the Punjabi propensity for grandstanding & extravagance, I think it'll be a little difficult for them to break away from this trend & evolve an identity of their own.
