DJ tally
DJ Tally is a new producer on the scene and is not holding back on his debut. His single “Nakhrah” features Bhangra singer Nirmal Sidhu. Nirmal has a long list of hits accredited to his name, perhaps “Nakhrah” will be added to that list and DJ Tally will be in for a long career.
The video has been produced by Guvy Heer and takes place in a club. Coordinated dance moves, fly girls, and a touch of Hip Hop flair added by artist C.O.V. make this video complete.
Mole
There is something instantly engaging about an artist’s work when you can see or feel the process behind it. Fever Dreams by Reem Khurshid which opened last week at T2F’s Faraar Gallery, displayed work vividly highlighting just that. As the crowd trickled in slowly and grew, each piece had a constant group of people gathered in front of it.
The opening was followed by an unusual gig – Reem live-painting on the canvas while the band Mole played their “phunkadelic, indietronic” music – their words, not mine – alongside. Here was an interesting change of sound for all of those who are sick of hearing mass-produced clones at every second gig.

Reem Khurshid is very young and very talented. And she paints. That is probably all one needs to say about her – if one sees her work, the statement will make sense enough to stand on its own. But then that would be unfair to someone who has managed to show her work solo while still pursuing an education.
One has been acquainted with Reem’s work for about five years now, having come up with her link on DeviantArt while searching for examples of drapery and the human figure. And just like that, one was sold onto the skill of someone much younger and not yet at art school. It takes not just great academic skill, but lots of patience and passion to actually sit down and make the kind of really intricate art that is Reem’s strength – and that too in quick-drying mediums such as acrylic and water colour!

Sophie
Sophie Choudry, Urban Desi songstress, went from her music career to her acting career and now is back on the music scene. Her album ‘Sound of Sophie’ has been on the market and getting her quite some attention. As we embark on Valentine’s Day weekend, Sophie has released her video for the song “Mohabbat (Love).”
The video shows a love triangle which takes a sharp turn. Sophie looks divine and the song is different from her pop vibes as it is a rock tune.
Check out the video for “Mohabbat” and let us know what you think.
Music
Lionel Richie and Quincy Jones have teamed up with Wyclef Jean, Randy Phillips, and Peter Totorici to produce “We Are The World 25 For Haiti.” The song is to benefit all Haitian earthquake relief in hopes of getting Haiti back on its feet.
Paul-Hagis got in on the project as he filmed the recording sessions here, and continues to save those in Haiti. This project has brought to together 80 artists of all different ages and genres all for a greater purpose.
Jamie Foxx speaks about the project and then we are moved by the video. We see scenes of the devastation and then get to see all the artists recording together. Lil Wayne, Josh Groban, Mary J. Blige, Michael Jackson, Pink, and the list continues! Our very own A.R. Rahman has also joined the project.
