New Music

The Blueprint 3 - Jay-Z

I pretty much had to check out the whole album after hearing Empire State of Mind (feat. Alicia Keys), but it gave me a chance to grab Run This Town (feat. Rihanna and Kanye West) too.

Knock You Down - Keri Hilson feat. Kanye West and Ne-yo

Despite vowing never to add Ne-Yo to my tracklist this track is so good I decided to allow it. Keri Hilson hasn't been the big hit I thought she'd be but Knock Me Down is more than enough. I love the change of pace.

Mauja Hi Mauja - Jab We Met

Since Bollywood/Desi music is so dire at the moment I thought I'd take the opportunity to look back to any tracks I might have missed over the past few years. The first is this all the way from 2007, a fun track from an OST I had already checked out when the film came out.

Om Shanti Om - Om Shanti Om

Specifically Ajab Si, Dhoom Taana and Deewangi Deewagni. I'm actually surprised I didn't get them back in 2007(!).

Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi - Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi

Dance Pe Chance (of course) and Phir Milenge Chalte Chalte. Bollytastic.

Desi Girl - Dostana

Super cheesy but again fun stuff from the hit 2008 comedy.

Marjani Marjani - Billu Barber

Although I didn't get to watch this myself this year, I've heard it at least twenty times at weddings and mendhis throughout the season. A definite floor filler.
