Samuel is an entrepreneur and huge fan of Rajinikanth and ‘Lungi Dance' and he is planning to play it on African drums. And the fact that his lyrics and pronunciation are close to perfect, can put most of us to shame. If you want to know why we are saying this, go and check his cover of ‘Brown Rang'.
Well, apart from Bhojpuri, his Punjabi game is spot on as well. Well, hold on to him mate, you will never find a friend as good as him. A friend from Chile had recommended the song to me and said I could wow a crowd if I sang Lollipop Lagelu,” he told Hindustan Times. So who introduced him to this Bhojpuri classic? “I first heard the song during my college days in Jaipur when I participated in a cultural event. He covered this song, which was originally sung by Pawan Singh and has already got more than 290k views. Samuel Adepoju aka Samuel Singh, a 26-year-old from Nigeria is a diehard fan of Indian music and Thalaiva Rajinikanth. So when someone covers this song, how can we let it pass? Although, someone singing it does not even remotely surprise us, but the fact that this Bhojpuri song has found a Nigerian fan who turned it into a soulful melody, is what's making us trip right now. And we don't think our obsession over this Bhojpuri song will ever die down. Shah Rukh, who was seen at the second edition of the Times Of India Film Awards (TOIFA) here, was one of the A-listers who perfomed on stage to songs from his films like Chhaiya chhaiya, Lungi dance and even the Hindi version of the Fan title song. The moment the DJ plays, “Tu lagaweli jab lipishtick, hilela Arra dishtric…” and the beats drops at kamariya, that is the time when our inner sleazeball comes out and takes over the entire f**king dance floor. An Indian wedding is incomplete without two songs – Sukhbir's ‘Oh Ho Ho Ho' and ‘Lollipop Lagelu' (although I am sure many would disagree with the second one right now), but it's true.
