Jassi Sidhu set to release Final Album?

PrintReport Tweet This Share on facebook Share

So many Bhangra names just come and go, and come and go, withholding the claim that Bhangra music isn’t what it used to be. Yeah, it’s good to have a good ol’ bhangra boogie every now and again (or even everyday for some!); ‘Patthey chakk-ing’ and light bulb screwing and the sort, but it’s tiresome hearing everyone pulling out the same old same old, just with a different name and a slightly tweaked beat.

Nevertheless, there’s always been that one man, legend in his own right, who, since stepping foot into the Bhangra scene 17 years ago, has had the respect of fellow legends, fans and those new to the scene that aspire to do what he has done. Taking in his still youthful good looks, it’s hard to believe he’s been around for so long, but what we do know is that when we hear his music there’ll be a maturity with which no one can contend. There’s no fakery or fuss where the legend that is Jassi Sidhu is concerned... just pure, quality bhangra music.

On the 17th April 2009, Jassi Sidhu announced on his Twitter account that he had started working on his new album... and guess what? 2 years later, there is news just in that the album is finally complete! Oh, you have no idea just how excited we are about this, and we’re hoping you’ll come along and join us in our excitement!

Singing Between the Lines is the latest offering from über talented Sidhu, bringing us 12 great tracks and 9 great videos which are eagerly anticipated by all. Having worked alongside, what we can only describe as the BEST desi music producers, including Rishi Rich, PBN, Honey Singh, Pama Sarai and Billy Sandher, Singing Between the Lines is set to be a light bulb screwing, rickshaw riding, dog patting SMASHER.

It’s rumoured that this may be Sidhu’s last ever album, as he recently put on twitter,

...I’ve always wanted to retire after 20 yrs in game so thats 3 yrs from now... hence I think this will be my last album...

...and as sad as this is, it makes us all the more enthusiastic as to what he’s brought as a final offering on the new album. It’s already been described as a quintessential bhangra album full of dance floor anthems and feel good hits, and we know with his astounding talent, his incomparable vocals, and his sheer love for quality bhangra music, he will surely deliver.

Singing Between the Lines releases on 27/05/11, so there’s really not too long to go now. However, if you really are anticipating it as much as we are, then don’t forget that it is available to pre-order on iTunes from 13/05/11; at least that way, you’ll literally have your very own copy as soon as it is released.

Jassi Sidhu is a man very passionate about saving the Bhangra industry, and the music industry in general (as well as Liverpool Football Club – but we won’t go into that right now!) and has worked immensely hard on this album. Unconventional yet traditional and talented yet humble, Jassi Sidhu’s name is one that will go down in Bhangra Music history. If you want your own little slice of Bhangra history then make sure you support one of the few rare, truly talented Bhangra names still around today, and get yourselves a LEGAL copy of Singing Between the Lines when it releases on 25th May
2011.

While everyone else is just managing to grasp the concept of reading between the lines, Jassi Sidhu is one step ahead and Singing Between the Lines... Now that’s got to be saying something!
