Outkast’s Big Boi, EDM artist Zedd, U.K. band Nothing But Thieves, Norwegian artist Aurora, rapper Hanumankind, guitarist-composer Cory Wong will perform in Mumbai on March 8 and 9, 2025

Anurag Tagat Sep 10, 2024

American punk-rock heroes Green Day, pop artist Shawn Mendes, U.K. hitmakers Glass Animals and singer-songwriter Louis Tomlinson are among top-billed acts making their India debut at Lollapalooza India 2025 in Mumbai, between March 8 and 9.

The lineup for the third edition of Lollapalooza India also includes rap veteran Big Boi from Outkast, U.K. band Nothing But Thieves, Norwegian pop artist Aurora, electronic artists like Zedd, John Summit and Alok, American guitarist-composer Cory Wong (known for his work with acts like Vulfpeck), breakout rapper Hanumankind (also our latest cover star), South Korean indie rock band Wave To Earth and rising pop artists Isabel LaRosa and more. Folk-indie singer-songwriter duo Lullanas – comprising Indian-origin siblings – will also make their India debut at Lollapalooza India 2025.

More Indian artists adding heft to the lineup include singer-songwriter Dot., rappers Raftaar and KR$NA, Punjabi artist Talwiinder, sitarist and fusion artist Niladri Kumar, pop artist Lisa Mishra, rock artist Raman Negi, Ahmedabad rap favorite Dhanji, producer Spryk, pianist-composer Sahil Vasudeva, DJ-producer Anushka, multi-instrumentalist-producer Sid Vashi, singer-songwriter Raghav Meattle and indie multi-instrumentalist/producer Sudan.

The announcement in September makes for meme-friendly news for Green Day, known for songs like “Wake Me Up When September Ends.” The band announced their India debut on Instagram and said, “Another first for us!! India, you’ve been calling our name… and it’s finally time to answer. We’ll see you in Mumbai next March for @LollaIndia.” The trio comprising Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tre Cool released their most recent album Saviors in 2024 and will likely dig into all-time hits like “Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life),” “American Idiot,” “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” and more. Shawn Mendes, known for hits “In My Blood,” “Treat You Better” and new single “Why Why Why,” returns to the live stage after more than two years on his current tour, which includes Lollapalooza India.

Louis Tomlinson, who has a big following in India following his time with pop group One Direction, will also make a long-awaited India debut. Fellow Brits Glass Animals are a big draw on the back of releasing their new album I Love You So F***ing Much in July, but primarily due to their 2020 hit “Heat Waves,” which was the seventh-most streamed song in India on Spotify in 2022.

Glass Animals founder Dave Bayley – who visited India as a 16-year-old – told Rolling Stone India in 2020, “Thank you for the support, I hope you are staying safe and healthy. We can’t wait to come and visit.”

In a wholly new strategy, Lollapalooza India’s 2025 lineup is out six months in advance of the multi-genre festival taking place in March. BookMyShow Live also took a similar approach while announcing the lineup for their festival Bandland, which is taking place on Nov. 23 and 24 in Bengaluru.

Understanding the Essence of Sufi and Sant Poetry

Sufi and Sant poetry are two deeply spiritual and philosophical traditions that have enriched the cultural and literary heritage of South Asia and beyond. Sufi poetry, often associated with mysticism and the quest for divine love, is known for its profound depth and emotional resonance. Sant Vani, on the other hand, comprises the devotional songs of the Sant tradition, emphasizing ethical living, devotion to God, and social equality.

These poetic forms have not only provided spiritual solace to millions but have also acted as a medium for social reform, challenging rigid societal norms and advocating for a more inclusive and compassionate worldview.

Famous Sufi Poets and Their Contributions

Bulleh Shah Bulleh Shah is one of the most celebrated Sufi poets whose verses transcend the boundaries of time and culture. His poetry, written in Punjabi, is a testament to his profound spiritual journey and his quest for unity with the Divine. Bulleh Shah’s works, such as "Bulleya Ki Jaana Main Kaun," are timeless classics that continue to inspire and resonate with readers around the world.

Rumi Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi, more commonly known as Rumi, is perhaps the most famous Sufi poet in the world. His works, written in Persian, have been translated into numerous languages and are widely read across the globe. Rumi’s poetry, encapsulated in his magnum opus "Masnavi," explores themes of divine love, the soul’s journey towards God, and the nature of existence.

Amir Khusro Amir Khusro, a prolific Persian poet and a disciple of Nizamuddin Auliya, made significant contributions to Sufi literature and music. He is often credited with the invention of several musical instruments and the development of new genres of poetry. His ghazals and qawwalis are integral to the Sufi musical tradition and continue to be performed with great reverence.

Prominent Themes in Sant Vani

Sant Vani, the poetic expressions of the Bhakti saints, often revolve around themes of love, devotion, and social justice. The Bhakti movement, which gave rise to Sant Vani, sought to transcend the barriers of caste and creed, promoting a direct and personal relationship with the Divine.

Love and Devotion The Bhakti saints, such as Kabir and Guru Nanak, emphasized the importance of love and devotion in their teachings. Kabir’s dohas (couplets) are renowned for their simplicity and profound wisdom, urging individuals to seek the Divine within themselves and to practice love and compassion in their daily lives.

Humanity and Social Equality The Bhakti poets often used their verses to challenge societal norms and advocate for social justice. Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, composed hymns that spoke against the caste system and gender discrimination, promoting the ideals of equality and universal brotherhood.

Famous Qawwals and Their Contributions

Qawwali, a form of Sufi devotional music, has a rich history and a profound impact on South Asian culture. This genre, characterized by its repetitive and hypnotic melodies, is designed to induce a state of spiritual ecstasy and divine connection.

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is often hailed as the greatest qawwal of all time. His powerful voice and emotive renditions of Sufi poetry have captivated audiences worldwide. His contributions to qawwali music have not only preserved this ancient tradition but also brought it to the global stage, influencing musicians across various genres.

Sabri Brothers The Sabri Brothers, a legendary qawwali group from Pakistan, are known for their dynamic performances and soulful renditions of Sufi poetry. Their qawwalis, such as "Bhar Do Jholi Meri" and "Tajdar-e-Haram," are celebrated for their spiritual fervor and emotional depth.

Abida Parveen Abida Parveen, one of the most iconic female Sufi singers, has made significant contributions to the world of Sufi music. Her powerful and evocative voice has brought the poetry of Sufi saints to life, making her one of the most revered figures in the genre.

Any Punjabi music recs? 👀 I'm not learning the language quite yet since I'm focusing on Spanish and Russian until I'm back in a place I know has more Punjabi resources, but I'd love to listen to the language more!

uhhh most of the music i know is party music that goes way hard and everyone knows (illegal weapon by garry sandu, kala chashma by prem & hardeep, lahore by guru randhawa, na ja by pav dharia, off the top of my head. also wakhra swag by navv inder, which my dad uses as a ringtone)

my parents really like harrdy sandu and i do too bc all of his songs get stuck in your head so quick!! my dad named our new car after a song by him called bijlee bijlee, which means lightning/electricity, because it's a nice blue lol.

i also like bajre da sitta, and consequently all the songs that are on a soundtrack for a movie by the same name <3 it's a nice movie and the girls have such lovely voices.

some more random ones that idk how i know... waalian by harnoor, kinni kinni by diljit dosanjh. hm. yeah, i don't know that many tbh. spotify playlists will pop up immediately with some fire music when you look tho. tbh i’m not the biggest fan of punjabi music outside of parties so i don’t know much more besides popular hits, as much as i would like to. i also listen to a lot of songs that are more hindi/punjabi mixed than just punjabi, so i tried to list songs that are more on the authentic side? i don't know if i succeeded lol.

i hope i could help! thank you for the ask :)

Indian Rap Heroes DIVINE & Karan Aujla are Anime Action Stars in "HISAAB" Video

DIVINE and Karan Aujla are heroes in the fast-growing Indian hip-hop scene. The groundbreaking duo puts their power into action in "HISAAB," a new anime-influenced video from their new collaborative album Street Dreams. "HISAAB" mixes traditional Indian instrumentation with a hip-hop pulse, as DIVINE and Karan Aujla trade bars–DIVINE rapping in Hindi, Karan Aujla rapping and singing in Punjabi–to examine the price of fame and the responsibilities incurred. Directed by Debjyoti Saha for Goppo Animation, the video for "HISAAB" is a visually-striking, action-packed, Anime-influenced short film. DIVINE and Karan attempt to escape from a surreal asylum, full of autonomous soldiers and giant cobra snakes, in an effort to save their freedom and sanity in the harsh world. The video surpassed 1 million views in just 12 hours and is currently in the Top 10 of YouTube's Trending Chart.

Last week, DIVINE and Karan Aujla shared Street Dreams, a 7-track effort that demonstrates why they are among the most exciting artists in the Indian scene. Out now via Mass Appeal India, Street Dreams had an extremely successful debut, reaching #1 on Apple Music within 24 hours of release, and taking over the number one spot on Apple Music's Album Charts in 40 countries, including India, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia. All seven songs from Street Dreams charted on Spotify's Daily Top Songs in India, and are currently trending on Instagram. 

is a relentless effort, bringing bilingual bars that express sentiments that need no translation. The album features production from Western heavy-hitters like Boi-1da, WondaGurl, Harry Fraud, Leven Kali, and Trox, who deliver premium productions for Karan and DIVINE to annihilate, along with hip-hop producers from the Indian scene. "Hisaab" finds the two artists counting their myriad accomplishments in 6/8 time, taunting any comer who can't match their quick maths, while "Top Class / Overseas" lays playful strings atop sliding 808s as DIVINE and Karan proclaim their valedictory status. "Yaad," meanwhile displays a softer side of the duo, as they trade off vocals with Indian-Canadian singer Jonita Gandhi. 

Also among the highlights is "100 Million," the tape's lead single and music video, which made waves across the globe. Defined by nostalgic hip-hop production reminiscent of Y2K-era Dr. Dre, in this case produced by American producer Trox (50 Cent, Cordae), “100 Million” is an anthem for those with grand dreams, the two icons reflecting on the enduring habits that propelled them to greatness. The song arrived in mid-January, with a video filmed in Dubai and directed by Karan Aujla’s long-time collaborators Rupan Bal, Dilpreetvfx and Anmol Raina. The song and video immediately became a huge success–the song reached the #1 spot of the YouTube Trending Charts in India, and reached the Top 10 in countries including Canada (#2), New Zealand (#4), UK (#6), Australia (#8) and the UAE (#8). Overall, the song racked up over 21 million YouTube views to date, as well as over 6 million Spotify streams. 

Karan Aujla and DIVINE have individually topped several charts across India with their albums and songs such as Karan's “Softly”, “White Brown Black”, “Mexico,” and “Players,” and DIVINE's “Mirchi”, “359 AM”, “Baazigar” (80 million YouTube views), and “Kaam 25” (65 million YouTube views). Their upcoming collaborative project is the first of its kind in the Indian music space and is poised to be a landmark moment in Indian music history. 

With Street Dreams out now, the dynamic duo prepares to make their presence felt on American shores. Stay tuned for more videos and announcements from DIVINE and Karan Aujla in the near future.

Bridging Local and Global Music Audiences

The music world today is more interconnected than ever before. With the rise of digital platforms and music apps, boundaries between local and global music cultures are fading, allowing listeners from all walks of life to explore diverse tunes. This article delves into how music apps and platforms bridge the gap between regional and international audiences, offering a unique blend of discovery and engagement.

The Growth of Regional Music Apps

In the past decade, regional music apps have significantly transformed the listening experience. India, for instance, is home to a thriving music industry with millions of avid listeners. Among the platforms that stand out is the best music app India, which caters specifically to Indian audiences. This app excels in promoting local artists, folk music, and Bollywood tracks while also offering users access to international hits.

These apps cater to unique preferences, such as regional languages, cultural soundscapes, and trending genres like Indian hip-hop. By doing so, they create a personalized experience that global platforms often lack. Indian music apps have not only enhanced the reach of local musicians but also created an ecosystem where diverse voices can thrive.

Connecting Local Audiences with Global Sounds

Global platforms like Airtel Wynk Music have taken the initiative to bridge local music traditions with international sounds. Wynk Music combines the charm of regional tracks with popular international hits, ensuring that users enjoy a well-rounded experience. For example, it’s not uncommon to find a curated playlist that features a Bollywood dance number alongside a chart-topping pop hit.

Such integrations make these apps a gateway for listeners to explore new genres. Imagine discovering a South Korean ballad while listening to your favorite Punjabi track or grooving to Afrobeat rhythms during your workout session. These seamless transitions reflect the power of technology in breaking down cultural barriers.

Lyrics as a Universal Connector

Lyrics are another powerful tool that connects audiences across geographies. Songs with universally relatable themes, such as love, ambition, or nostalgia, resonate deeply with listeners regardless of language or origin. A striking example is the popularity of New York lyrics. Tracks inspired by this iconic city are embraced worldwide, showcasing its universal appeal.

Music apps have recognized this connection, incorporating features that highlight lyrics for deeper engagement. For instance, apps often allow users to read, share, and even sing along with synced lyrics. This not only enhances the listening experience but also introduces audiences to linguistic nuances and storytelling traditions from different cultures.

Music Platforms as Cultural Ambassadors

Platforms like Just Music play a significant role in acting as cultural ambassadors. By curating playlists based on themes such as “Global Hits” or “Music from Around the World,” they encourage users to step out of their comfort zones and explore something new.

These platforms also support lesser-known artists by providing them with a stage to showcase their talent. As a result, listeners gain access to an eclectic mix of music that ranges from African jazz to Scandinavian folk tunes. Such initiatives contribute to a more inclusive and diverse music landscape, where local traditions gain recognition on a global scale.

Which Country is the Best for Music?

The debate over which country is the best music in the world is a long-standing one, and the answer largely depends on individual preferences. Some might argue that the United States, with its dominance in pop, hip-hop, and rock, takes the crown. Others might highlight India for its rich classical traditions and Bollywood flair or Brazil for its samba and bossa nova.

Music apps have allowed audiences to explore this diversity firsthand. They provide an opportunity to appreciate the unique elements of each country’s music while also finding commonalities that unite us all. Through collaborative projects, international tours, and global playlists, these platforms continue to redefine the boundaries of music.

Why Bridging Audiences Matters

Bridging local and global music audiences has significant cultural and economic implications. It fosters cross-cultural understanding and appreciation, breaking stereotypes and encouraging collaboration. A listener in Tokyo can now enjoy Afrobeat from Lagos, while an artist in Mumbai can gain fans in Los Angeles.

Moreover, the globalization of music contributes to the growth of the industry. Artists earn recognition beyond their home countries, leading to increased revenues and opportunities. For listeners, it means endless possibilities for discovering their next favorite track or artist.

How Listeners Benefit from Diverse Music

For listeners, the blending of local and global music offers endless possibilities. It enriches their playlists, provides a window into different cultures, and fosters a deeper appreciation for artistic diversity. Music apps act as the medium through which they can access these treasures, catering to every taste and mood.

The rise of apps like the best music app India, Airtel Wynk Music, and Just Music ensures that music lovers are never limited in their options. From the latest trending pop songs to traditional folk melodies, these platforms offer something for everyone.

Conclusion

Music has always been a universal language, and today’s digital platforms have amplified its reach. By bridging local and global music audiences, apps and platforms ensure that diversity thrives while also celebrating the universal emotions that music evokes. Whether it’s through lyrics like New York lyrics, curated playlists, or unique features, these tools make the world a smaller, more harmonious place.

The next time you explore a music app, venture into uncharted territory. Discover a genre you’ve never heard before or listen to a song in a language you don’t understand. You might just find your new favorite tune while connecting with a culture halfway across the globe.

They remind us of where we've been and hint at where we're going. Music, in its most profound form, is not just heard but felt, creating a soundtrack that is uniquely ours yet universally understood.

Labels like White Hill Music and Columbia Records continue to inspire with their ability to adapt and thrive, while platforms like YouTube redefine success in the digital age.

Understanding the Essence of Sufi and Sant Poetry

Sufi and Sant poetry are two deeply spiritual and philosophical traditions that have enriched the cultural and literary heritage of South Asia and beyond. Sufi poetry, often associated with mysticism and the quest for divine love, is known for its profound depth and emotional resonance. Sant Vani, on the other hand, comprises the devotional songs of the Sant tradition, emphasizing ethical living, devotion to God, and social equality.

These poetic forms have not only provided spiritual solace to millions but have also acted as a medium for social reform, challenging rigid societal norms and advocating for a more inclusive and compassionate worldview.

Famous Sufi Poets and Their Contributions

Bulleh Shah Bulleh Shah is one of the most celebrated Sufi poets whose verses transcend the boundaries of time and culture. His poetry, written in Punjabi, is a testament to his profound spiritual journey and his quest for unity with the Divine. Bulleh Shah’s works, such as "Bulleya Ki Jaana Main Kaun," are timeless classics that continue to inspire and resonate with readers around the world.

Rumi Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi, more commonly known as Rumi, is perhaps the most famous Sufi poet in the world. His works, written in Persian, have been translated into numerous languages and are widely read across the globe. Rumi’s poetry, encapsulated in his magnum opus "Masnavi," explores themes of divine love, the soul’s journey towards God, and the nature of existence.

Amir Khusro Amir Khusro, a prolific Persian poet and a disciple of Nizamuddin Auliya, made significant contributions to Sufi literature and music. He is often credited with the invention of several musical instruments and the development of new genres of poetry. His ghazals and qawwalis are integral to the Sufi musical tradition and continue to be performed with great reverence.

Prominent Themes in Sant Vani

Sant Vani, the poetic expressions of the Bhakti saints, often revolve around themes of love, devotion, and social justice. The Bhakti movement, which gave rise to Sant Vani, sought to transcend the barriers of caste and creed, promoting a direct and personal relationship with the Divine.

Love and Devotion The Bhakti saints, such as Kabir and Guru Nanak, emphasized the importance of love and devotion in their teachings. Kabir’s dohas (couplets) are renowned for their simplicity and profound wisdom, urging individuals to seek the Divine within themselves and to practice love and compassion in their daily lives.

Humanity and Social Equality The Bhakti poets often used their verses to challenge societal norms and advocate for social justice. Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, composed hymns that spoke against the caste system and gender discrimination, promoting the ideals of equality and universal brotherhood.

Famous Qawwals and Their Contributions

Qawwali, a form of Sufi devotional music, has a rich history and a profound impact on South Asian culture. This genre, characterized by its repetitive and hypnotic melodies, is designed to induce a state of spiritual ecstasy and divine connection.

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is often hailed as the greatest qawwal of all time. His powerful voice and emotive renditions of Sufi poetry have captivated audiences worldwide. His contributions to qawwali music have not only preserved this ancient tradition but also brought it to the global stage, influencing musicians across various genres.

Sabri Brothers The Sabri Brothers, a legendary qawwali group from Pakistan, are known for their dynamic performances and soulful renditions of Sufi poetry. Their qawwalis, such as "Bhar Do Jholi Meri" and "Tajdar-e-Haram," are celebrated for their spiritual fervor and emotional depth.
