Gops, I hope you can post this. I just got this message on another forum from a guy who is not well regarded. He has some advice for ARR that I found pretty funny. Here is what he said:
"Again AR Rahman dissapoints us with RDB as the audio is refusing to pick up in sales. I have pointed out in the pas the weakness in approach of ARR in recent years. Let me repeat that. 1) He has to give more time to create melodious music instread of this rap and western tren. We want Jiya Jale, Kehna Hai Kya over Khalbali type of songs. 2) He has to take well know renowned singers to make his songs more meaningfull. He has some vaugue thinking that only music directors are powerfull and singers are non entity. Both md and singers have contribution to make. When you take unknown singers you are actually letting people not to buy your albums. 3) He has to tell his lyricists to write something which people can understand not something like Pathshala or Dakka laga bukka. 4) Dont do period films. He is himself saying he is done with it but again taking assignments for it. He has to correct the above otherwise none of his album going to reach the top 10. Except Swades and Yuva none of the last 9 albums even reached 5 lakhs unit sell. For ARR album usually it picks in West and South. But now West has also rejected it."
