Now Playing

Singh Is Kinng OST

Singh Is Kinng - 2 words - Snoop Dogg. It's the 1st time ever that a mainstream Hip Hop star as huge as Snoop has sung on a Hindi movie track. Akshay Kumar joins in on the rapping too!

Jee Karda - Labh Janjua, on song, as usual, on a Pritam directed album

Bas Ek Kinng - It's got an ultra cool bassline while the Punjus Mika & Hard Kaur rock this one

All in all, Singh Is Kinng falls short of the hype surrounding it's release, but Hip Hop tolerators won't be disappointed.

Bachna Ae Haseeno OST

Khuda Jaane - A typical KK song that's massively hummable

Lucky Boy - Sunidhi's vocals; Hard Kaur's rapping & Raja Hasan's interludes. Lovely combo!

Aahista Aahista - Lucky Ali & Shreya Ghoshal on a romantic duet with backing Spanish guitar set to a bass heavy rhythm - the Vishal-Shekhar touch, no doubt

Bachna Ae Haseeno - Kishore Da is back! Well not really, but the remix of the original has turned out great. Vishal raps on the intro, while Kishore Kumar's son Sumit delivers the lines. Cool!

Bachna Ae Haseeno is in typical Vishal-Shekhar fashion, a well turned out album with pleasant rhythms & catchy tunes. Good going guys.

Rock On OST

Socha Hai - lovely lyrics

Pichle Saat Dinon Mein - the play on the word roya is super

Rock On - the riffs, the riffs .... they're perfect ringtone material!

Ye Tumhari Meri Baatein - Dominique is just outstanding here. 2 of the best songs in this album are by the girls

Phir Dekhiye - lovely, soulful number from Caralisa. I remember her from the My Dil Goes Hmmm remix from Salaam Namaste. Once you've heard her on this one, you'll realize how misplaced she was on that track.

What can I say about this one? Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy have produced a great album completely in sync with the Rock them of the movie. The lyrics of every song stand out. And why shouldn't they? It's Javed Akhtar handling that department after all.
