Each genre of music has its own place in the sky. You have made some
daring comparisons of Carnatic music vs Hindustani music. I admit I
haven't learned both but have heard them and believe me Hindustani
music isn't limited. Anyways coming back to the core of dappankoothu
songs, it does have a place atleast in cinema and society. If I am not
mistaken, Dappankoothu like Rap has emerged from the poor echeleons of
the society. 

The only jarring factor in the recent hits are the monotony and
the vulgar lyrics. I loved Pettai Rap and would love Rahman to come
with something in this genre. One does need to let their hair down and
enjoy once in a while.On 11/15/05, PB Ram [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Dear Ram,

To state that Dappakuttu only fasinates one section of
the society is being absolute RACIST, you have started
the same old caste based arguements  stating that
carnatic music is the best and the most divine, to be
more precise let me tell you that Dappakuttu for
Tamils is like what Bhangra is for Punjabis and like
Vinayakam said dappakuttu has so much potential if
used the right way it can be our entry to the world
music scene like how Punjabi Mc or Rish Rich used
bhangra with hiphop beats to reach the worldwide
audience, Finally i want to request to the moderator
not to encourage these sort of RACIST REMARKS IN THIS
FORUM.

PEACE OUT...
