Lyrical Ludicrousness-2: Yo!

So, on to the second edition of Lyrical Ludicrousness, starring Yo^2 Honey Singh (who loves to be addressed as Yo!). I needed to do quite a bit of research on this guy, since I have only heard two of his songs: Lungi Dance (Subject of a previous blog post) and the Woofer-Amplifier song......

Wait, the Woofer-Amplifier song is not sung by Yo! ?? Turns out that Its some Pak-Dutch singer named Imran Khan, though, looking at the two images below, you'd be tempted to believe that they are brothers-in-arms roaming through the myriad malls of Gurgaon.



So, more research then. Google search, and there is a website which shows the lyrics of all his songs. At the very first glance, the songs all have a common underlying theme:

Location: Some awesome party in some god-forsaken location in Gurgaon.
Subject: Some beautiful, well-dressed girl
Topic of Discussion: Make-up used -> Drink which she is having -> Next Steps
Next Steps: Shit like penthouse / top floor; calling "father-in-law" blah blah. (I am not going to elaborate on this)
Notable Song titles: Alcoholic, Love Dose, Chal Mere Ghar, Chaar Bottle Vodka, Weed Pila de, Main Sharabi

Safe to say that if certain sections of NCR youth actually start believing / getting inspired by this stuff, we are in a mess. Last I heard, Yo^2 songs are being sung at birthday parties of 10-year old kids.That, if true, is even scarier news.

On a parting note, I heard that the movie "Xpose", which released recently, featured both HimeshBhai and Yo!, which features Himesh as an sacked-cop-turned-actor........

Really?
