The Biggest Bhangra & Urban Asian Tracks Of 2014
Number 10: Jaz Dhami, "Pasina"
This track showed the world a different side to Jaz Dhami. It's produced by British magician producer Steel Banglez alongside rappers Sneakbo and Ikka. Jaz already had hits under his belt with "High Heels," "Zulfa" and "Meh Punjabi Boli Ah" and now he can add this track to his ever-expanding list.
Number 9: Mickey Singh and Amar Sandhu, "Double Addi"
Mickey and Amar teamed up to release this track in July with DJ ICE and 2NYCe. It's definitely one for the ladies!
Number 8: B21, "Dil Tharkeh (Desi Mix)"
B21 is a household name from back in the day, and this year was a special year for brother’s Bally and Bhoota Jagpal. They released their long-awaited album 1.2.B. There were a number of tracks that stood out in this album, but the most significant was "Dil Tharkeh (Desi Mix)."
Number 7: Jags Klimax featuring Shin DCS, "Hanji"
This track that totally got you rocking and raving on the dance floor is by Jags Klimax and Shin DCS. They also released a remix of "Hanji."
Number 6: Navin Kundra, "All of Me (Hindi Cover)"
John Legend’s "All of Me" was the chosen track for Navin’s sister’s first dance at her wedding. To give it an extra special touch, Navin decided to record his own cover with a Hindi twist. It already has 50,000 hits and counting on YouTube.
Number 5: Honey Singh, "Desi Kalakaar"
Honey Singh has been working a lot in Bollywood this year, but he still had time to release a whole album titled Desi Kalakaar. The main track takes the same name, and it ranks number 5 on our list.
Number 4: Bilal Saeed featuring Roach Killa, "Lethal Combination"
We knew the name Bilal Saeed from tracks like "Adhi Adhi Raat" and "Ku Ku" from the album he released with Dr. Zeus. This time he worked with Roach Killa on a track called "Lethal Combination." And it is a lethal combination!
Number 3: DNA featuring Lehmber Hussainpuri, "Das Ja 2"
One of the biggest tracks of all time was DJ Sanj and Lehmber Hussainpuri’s "Das Ja." In 2014, DNA worked with Lehmber on part 2 of the track. This hit has been topping charts since its release.
Number 2: Diljit Dosanjh, "Patiala Peg"
Since he's one of the top bhangra artists around, everyone knows that anything Diljit Dosanjh releases will be big. And he did not disappoint with "Patiala Peg." We can only wait and see what he has in store for 2015!
Number 1: Jazzy B, Kaur B and Dr. Zeus, "Mitran De Boot"
With a combination of the "crown prince of bhangra," Jazzy B, and hit producer Dr Zeus, of course this track was going to be huge — not to mention the powerful female vocals of Kaur B that have helped this song become the biggest track of 2014.
