Jaswinder Singh Bains, more popularly known as Jazzy B, is called the crown prince of bhangra. Born in Punjab and raised in Vancouver, the transatlantic singer-songwriter has been in the music scene since 1993 and flits between England, India and Canada. He has released 11 studio albums, and also sang for Bollywood movies like 'Rush' (Dil Toh Hai Fukraa), 'Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns' (Jugni) and 'Shaadi Ke Side Effects' (Harrys Not A Brahmachari). Fresh after collaborating with rappers Hard Kaur and Scottish Bhangra group Tigerstyle on a dance number for upcoming film 'Dilliwaali Zaalim Girlfriend', Jazzy B is ecstatic.
How did Zaalim Dilli happen? I met the director Japinder Kaur socially and she seemed interested in working with me. She was closely involved with the music of the film. Hard Kaur was roped in and then Raj and Pop from Glasgow-based Tigerstyle joined us in creating Zaalim Dilli. The two brothers have also done all the mixing and mastering. They are good producers and are also doing a couple of songs for my new album. It was great working with Hard Kaur. She has worked with me earlier for a song on another album. She's a tough worker. She started off in England, made her way to India and proved her mettle here. She's a strong woman who stands her ground and says it like it is.
Zaalim Dilli is actually the title song of the film. It was also supposed to be the film's title, but the producers changed their mind later. It is a bubbly dance song that will appeal to a wide set of people. Even my seven-year-old son had a smirk on his face when he heard the first recording. He asked me to play it again and memorised all the words. When a child immediately takes to a song, one knows it has potential.
Yo Yo Honey Singh has become one of the most popular artists in the Bollywood industry that actors love to partner up with for song collaborations. After creating hits with Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumer and many others, it looks like he is taking his turn in acting. Singh will be making a comeback on the big screen in his debut movie “Zorawar” as the lead protagonist.
“Boarded for Bombay to shoot my first solo punjabi movie ‘Zorawar’ #raatjashandi #yyhs #yoyohoneysingh,”tweeted Singh along with a photo of himself on the plane.
Singh will reportedly be playing an agent in the movie.
The last we heard about Singh was when he created the song “Aao Raja” for Akshay Kumar’s film “Gabbar Is Back,” which also features Chitrangada Singh. Not only does the Punjabi rapper sing in the theme song, but it also features Neha Kakkar in vocals as well.
“Gabbar is Back,” which is a remake of 2002 Tamil film “Ramanna,” is about a man’s fight against corruption and how he turns his individual battle into a collective one. The film, which also features Shruti Haasan, has hit theaters on May 1.
Honey Singh recently took a step from collaborating with Bollywood stars and created a hit of his own called “One Bottle Down.”
The song, which is featured on the singer’s upcoming album backed by Bhushan Kumar of T-Series, released earlier in March.
“Yo Yo is really fun to work with. Our association has grown stronger over the period of time. His songs have always created a stir in the market,” said Kumar about Singh to Bollywood Hungama. “His fans all over are waiting for his next song and ‘One Bottle Down’ is a feet thumping party number which will bowl them over. Yo Yo gave me the final track in few days and the song will be his yet another top chartbuster. It’s a great single and will do wonders.”
