there's no originality, they take hit hip hop tracks, change them up slightly, not enough that you don't recognize what they are, and put some trash lyrics over it, no originality, pathetic message in music, it really is cringe

I'm guessing from the very little bits I've heard of that ^^^ kind of Punjabi fusion music, the people making them now hardly know anything about music theory, because the key of the sampled track doesn't fit with the key of the Punjabi tune / lyrics, which makes it sound like nails on a blackboard. It's nastiness for the ears.

I just passed through Leicester Square and there were some Punjabi “street performers” dancing to the “3 peg” song.

I feel sorry for the British Sikhs. You guys probably can’t escape from such buffoonery!

I haven't been there in years.  Darn peasant culture!  

Were they wearing paghs?

Panjabi music now is limited to artists getting caught in preplanned controversies every other day. 

Swearing has become so normalised in Panjabi music because of rap/hip-hop. UK Panjabi music also contributed to popularising these new genres in Panjab. Young people in Panjab are so obsessed with singers, they even swear at each other over them.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
