Badshah who has revolutionalised the rapping industry have spilled the beans on the current scenario of of Bollywood music industry. The rapper tweeted his views in a long series of tweets focusing on the aspect of music which has become “democratic” but is also in a space in which people are in a constant effort “trying to crack the algorithms”.
Badhshah wrote, “No one is making music. Everyone is shook. Insecure. Trying to crack the algorithms. Crack codes. Crack sounds. Coz koi bhi gaana hit ho raha hai. Its not necessary to be a big star to have a hit. Music has become extremely democratic.
“But log ye bhool rahe hain ke…. acha gaana hit hota hi hota hai. Aaj nahi to kal. (People are forgetting that a good song will always become a hit, sooner or later).”
Badshah mentioned that composers must forget algorithms and code rather focus on the music and its fair composition .
“For everyone. F**k videos f**k budgets f**k production. All you need to make is good music. Dil de dil tak. Back to basics. There is no code no algo no plan. Only music. Real music. No gimmicks. No efforts. Effortless music. Evoke an emotion. Any emotion. F**k chords, touch chords,” he further added.
Badshah broke the records with Kapoor & Sons in 2016, especially his chartbuster and most loved song “Kar Gayi Chull”. He then went on to create Bollywood soundtracks in films such as Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania, Khoobsurat, Baar Baar Dekho, Ok Jaanu, Street Dancer 3D and others.
