Episode 579
ON TODAY'S SHOW
Sammy Chand opens the week with Bangladeshi star Xefer — the self-taught singer, songwriter, and now actress whose journey from YouTube covers to 150-million-view hits is one of the great organic artist stories in South Asian music — at 24:12. Her presence brackets the hour: Tor Chaya, the song she composed and stars alongside in the film Tumi Ami Shudhu, sets the table before the conversation, and Jhumka — her landmark collaboration with Muza — carries the hour out of it. Sahib Samra's Hor Das opens the show at the top — the current chart No1. Shubh's Sohniye. D'Evil and Tandon's No Topi. Ammy Virk's Lost In You. Jasleen Royal's Inaam. Chani Nattan, Inderpal Moga, and Jazzy B on She Knows. Badshah and Hiten's Velvet Flow. Harkirat Sangha closes the hour with Ecstasy. Plus Dr. Roy with the Word On The Avenue, Meera Sharma with the Mindful Sass, Daniel Johnson with UN News, and Doyeeta Das Gupta with the Artist Spotlight. Sammy delivers the closing remarks.
