Bappi Lahiri Releases New International Track On World Music Day!

Even after many years in the music business, Bappi Lahiri continues to surprise himself and his fans. On the occasion of World Music Day on Thursday, he has released a new song, which will make its debut in global charts.

On a call from the US, Bappi said, “It’s a very special day, and I’ve written and performed a song very close to my heart. It’s called ‘We Are One’. I recorded the song in Los Angeles with international musicians. It has released on YouTube.”

Bappi feels the younger generation of musicians needs to appreciate both global music and the traditional Indian style.

“I may be known better for my Western songs like ‘Jimmy Jimmy’ and ‘Disco Dancer’. But side by side, I could compose raga-based melodies like ‘Saiyyan bina ghar soona’ (Lata Mangeshkar’s song in ‘Aangan Ki Kali’) and ‘Dard ki ragini’ (from ‘Pyaas’).”
