ARR fans,
I went to see the ARR concert in Boston with my parents 2 days back. It was an unforgettable experience. My parents, who are in their 60s and staunch music lovers and come from the traditional side of India in terms of taste and exposure, are completely in love with ARR and his music now. For many years, they liked his music, but even they too for some time thought his music was too rhythmic and repetitive. But now...completely changed. They can't stop talking about him and his music, esp. knowing how simple and humble he is without any trace of ego or arrogance. That is what sold them to ARR finally...his personal attributes, and hearing some more evergreen tunes from him in the past few years and just being more exposed to ARR's music in general. Here is what my father said in response to that letter from the editor piece from filmfare recently:
"Short and sweet but loaded review of a simple, humble, unassuming living legend, a musician standing tall among a crowd of music makers. An artist who is original, creative, bold and revolutionary in introducing new patterns of blending eastern and western melody and rhythm, that has resulted in so many hits becoming evergreen unlike most popular songs with a short lifespan."
That's my father's take on ARR. I liked this line the most from what he wrote:
"a musician standing tall among a crowd of music makers"
That just completely struck me.
hope you have not read it in the air. links pls.Quote:

'I want to compose a song with Rahman’ -Flo Rida
American rapper and singer Flo Rida, of chartbuster You spin my head right round fame, briefly toured India last week. And post his performances in Bangalore and Pune, the hip-hop star, who was brought down here by Morph Entertainment, only has good things to say about the country.
“I’m in awe of Indian culture,” he says. “India is the place where music originated so it’s seen in a big way by the entertainment industry in the US. It’s got such a rich culture and varied genres of music. Unfortunately, I couldn’t go around much this time but I definitely want to come back again for long.”
The singer is cued into Bollywood as well and says he’d love to team up on a song like the Snoop Dogg-Pritam number Singh is kinng. “I’ve been exposed to Bollywood music and believe it has its own charm and melody,” he says. “I would love to meet and compose a song or two with someone like (AR) Rahman.”
And as Bollywood gets ready for a remake of the Hollywood blockbuster, The Hangover, that featured Flo Rida’s Right round, Flo Rida says he’d be “honoured” to be a part of it: “I would consider it a huge compliment if my music is a part of the movie or any other Bollywood movie for that matter.”
Talking about the song that made him a global superstar, Flo Rida says he got the idea of sampling Dead or Alive’s single You spin me round for his song Right round through his sister first. “I finally recorded it because I wanted to show listeners my musical growth by broadening my horizons, since ROOTS was my second album,” he reveals.
“I think the song managed to influence people internationally because whenever I compose, I think of people all over the world rather than just a local audience.”
