Aaah...my mistake:-)
I myself took only the jist of the article. It is something even I
feel is the reason that has killed the quality of music. As far as
Rahman not being creative, if Rahman is not creative, I don't know
what MD in India today is?! Geniuses like Rahman and Ilayaraja are
a rarity. Who in the world could come up with a score like Roja in
his first film itself?!!! I wasted my time thinking that the
article was justifiable, which it is, but his last sentence is not.
Personally, I found Kavitha Krishnamurthy's argument stuck in my
head more, and I can understand that more. But I agree with the
criticism that half-backed singers are a doom for the playback
industry.
Coming to Rahman, admittedly he did bring these technologies. I
have cringed at some of the singing of his singers. But for all
that, there is no one who was introduced in the last 15 years, with
creativity of Rahman.
