Fakhr-e-Alam >> Update!

The revival of Fakhr-e-Alam! Falam is the new Image of our very famous 'Bhangra Pao' rapper. His newest album "Falam Connection" is out and has done some good business. Falam (short for Fakhr-e-Alam) has recently quoted to have said that this 4 year gap between his last album is due to the fact that Falam wanted to do something different and something new. Indeed this album is different and new as well. His previous album "Malang" was quite different as well. It seems Fakhr likes to do some experiments and this is good as public demands variety.
'Falam Connection', is not a Bhangra Number! It has a mixture of Qawalis, soft and slow numbers and of course, spirited and lively tracks which are a hallmark of Fakhr. "Husn Waloon" and "Direct Connection" are both Qawali style numbers full of halla gulla. "Dharti Ki Kasam" is a patriotic number which does not carry the same weight as his previous similar mood performance "Na Chedr Malangan Noo" carried. "Shikway Gillay" sets an all different mood. It is an attempt to provide a soft, serene and romantic flavour amongst vibrant numbers. "Talaash" is another number addressing social problems which is good in getting the message through. "Ishq" is another notable number in this album and has the potential to create some impact. Other songs may include 'Fana' and 'Zindagi' etc. All in all, Fakhr's 'Falam Connection' offers a variety of listening pleasures. Some of them are good while some are plain impressionless numbers, but if you want something different then you can try the falam connection.
