Tuesday Music Review - Jay Sean, Bikram Singh and Chamku
August 12 2008 14:20 PST
It's Tuesday and you know what that means, Desi Hits! is here to bring you a review of this week's releases straight from our radio presenters! This week we only have comments from two of our presenters, but we've got a mix of everything you need to satisfy your musical taste buds - Bollywood, Bhangra, and Urban Desi.

Aaja Milke - Chamku: This romantic number comes from the latest Bobby Deol and Priyanka Chopra starrer.
Jay Gatzby: "Sounds like something I'd hear at home while my mother is making dinner."
Aadil Rasheed: "A bit dull and dreary as a filmi song really. Cannot get enthused about this in any shape or form. I'm still recovering from a broken heart after Priyanka Chopra never responded to my Facebook request!!!"
Akshay: "Track bearing more cinematic tendency than high energy dance radio. Probably very effective while doing dishes, ironing, or crying over love lost."

Ride It (Hindi Mix) -Jay Sean: The Hindi take on Jay's hit track.
Arun: "Interesting. Jay Sean's domination of India begins here."
Kid Fresh: "Lovin' the blend between Hindi and English, he got the fusion just right to make it appeal to both markets."
Jay Gatzby: "Very smart move for Jay Sean; the record is melodically a hit anyway you slice it; the Hindi lyrics will win him BIG points in India. It will also give life to an old single at all radio shows."

Telephone - Bikram Singh: This track is the first video single off Bikram's new album, Tip Top.
Arun: "Uh oh, why oh why is Bikram Singh leading with this track when he has some BRILLIANT tracks like Aashiqan De Dil and Ik Waari Aaja on the album. This song made me hang up.
Kid Fresh: "Deffinitely would not have chosen this as a 1st single when he has such other strong tracks to come out with. Ik Wari Aaja is a fire track!"
Jay Gatzby: "Bikram and Tigerstyle came through BIG with this one. This track is the definition of Urban Desi. Combining Bollywood, Bhangra and Hip Hop?? Love the sample use from Wu-Tang Clan’s - Shame On A N*%GA. This track is a winner and will bang in the clubs, mixtapes and radio."

Baby (Dil Deewana) - Shayal feat. Ginuwine and Anu Shukla: This track is one of the first RnB fusion songs with a mainstream RnB artist. The video features Bollywood actress Neha Dhupia.
Akshay: "Energy filled RnB song - don't know that having Ginuwine will be much of a draw for the track - though Neha Dhupia's feature will turn some heads in India and beyond."
Arun: "I'm really liking this track but I smell “one hit wonder” wafting over from producer Shayal. Will he prove me wrong? Neha Dhupia sizzles in the video…someone get me her number."
Jay Gatzby: "Sounds like a Trackmaster’s Beat; Shayal you been studying them? Ginuwine comes through with his classic style that I’ve been missing for a while. Where is that dude and how did he fall off so hard? Neha Dhupia looks bananas in the video, get me her number too – Arun – I bet you I’ll beat you to the finish line."

I got the full version, and it's a big disappointment compared to the snippet. He only uses the same couple of phrases throughout, and only for the chorus. I was hoping that it would be more adventurous than what he put out.
