Singh is king-sound check

The album comprises 12 tracks of which six are remix versions. That brings us down to six original tracks of which the title track is by far the catchiest. Four other songs from the album – Jee Karda, Bas Ek Kinng, Bhootni Ke and Talli Hua – are just about okay.

In this light, Teri Ore, the only love ballad in the album stands out for its soulful tunes, music arrangement and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and Shreya Ghoshal’s voices.

However for the more curious and outrageous, we’d suggest listen to Jee Karda. It’s what will give you an insight into this wonderful culture of the Punjabis.

Bhootni ke (one of those untranslatable gems of the Punjabi language) or another one that goes Talli Hua (you don’t want us to translate that, believe us).

Title track SINGH IS KING is sung by Snoop Dogg and Akshay Kumar.The track has chartbuster clearly written over it, though the fusion of dhols and drums may not necessarily impress you all the time.

The Rating is 3.5 out of 5
