Amardeep- yes, king became kinng numerologically.

But how did the ‘King’ become ‘Kinng’? Laughs the man behind Aankhen, Waqt and Namastey London, Vipul Shah, “As a Producer I have my film’s interest to caretake. We need success at any cost. My view has always been that whatever can be done to better the vibes of the film or add to the ‘luck’ factor should be done. So very simply, the extra N is only to bring it numerologically to an auspicious number.” [link]

Thanks! I knew that there had to have been some method to the madness. Despite its superstitious and thus, very questionable reasoning, I’m just glad it wasn’t a typo.

On a related topic, can anyone shed any light on Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham?

I love the materialism in rap music

Don’t generalize. It’s only a feature of mainstream rap not the real stuff

I’m a bit disappointed–the “Singh is Kinng” song is actually pretty bad. The beat sounds unimaginative, not really deviating much from that synth beat that made Snoop famous, and the chorus is lame. “Singh is King (or Kinng if you wish), Singh is King” repeated over and over again does not a good record make. I don’t know, I thought RDB would have taken advantage of actually getting snoop to rap on one of their productions, but this song is quite bad. That being said, I think having snoop on a record alone will help with sales. Another opportunity sqandered. My hope is that the forthcoming Panjabi MC and Raghav albums will offer some redemption. Raghav’s new album Identity has a decent track with Redman, My Kind of Girl.

i agree with you here. It is pretty bad. But will do well in India, the market they are catering for. Overall the rap that indians imitate sucks really bad.

Ferraris, Bugatis, and Masteratis

I’m guessing it is Bugatti and Maserati.

Spelling bee on the prowl.
