Re: [arr] Rahman: I have to be more careful now

It wasn't a situation that demanded a Beethoven's Symphony or a
Ba-ba black sheep! Composing for films is not about showing the world
what you can do.

LOL ! ..a tight slap on the face's' of those 'critics' !


You have to get something right first and then try and excel in it. The 
reverse way would be disastrous.

Another impressive quote from Rahmanji.. :-)


Thank you Bro. for the post.

Rahman: I have to be more careful now
 
Rahman believes that he will have to put more effort into his music as his 
audience has grown. There will not be a change in my music but I have to be 
more careful - because I guess my music will be noticed by more people now, he 
says. I guess we have to culturally accommodate as much as we can. There is 
definitely a sense of pressure but that's good. Good music always comes with 
honesty and when made directly from the heart and by being conscious of melody.”

Rahman is also highly impressed by MIA’s work. MIA collaborated with him on the 
song ‘O Saya’, which was also nominated for the Oscar. “I find her an 
extraordinary artiste who makes political statements with her music,” he told a 
local website. “Some years back, she had come down to record her music at my 
studio because she needed some specific kind of percussion and had expressed a 
wish to work with me then because she liked the energy in my music. At that 
time, I was busy. But when this opportunity arose, I naturally took it.”

Many artists have said that ‘Jai Ho’, which won him the Oscar, is not at all as 
good as most of his other compositions. Rahman, however, says that even if it 
isn’t as good, it’s exactly the song the film needed. He says, “Well, I had to 
make something that was right for the film. It wasn't a situation that demanded 
a Beethoven's Symphony or a Ba-ba black sheep! Composing for films is not about 
showing the world what you can do. You have to get something right first and 
then try and excel in it. The reverse way would be disastrous.”
