desihits @anoopdoggdesai Whats going on Anoop, you ready!
AnoopDoggDesai @desihits Let's get it going! Shout out to all my SE Asian fans following!
desihits @anoopdoggdesai So how's life been after American Idol?
AnoopDoggDesai @desihits It's been busy writing and recording music! My single, "My Name," comes out on March 23rd, and the EP, "All is Fair" in May!
desihits @anoopdoggdesai We heard you debuted your single "My Name" a few days ago at NYC's Fashion week, tell us about that?
AnoopDoggDesai @desihits Incredible! @malanbreton takes inspiration from Indian clothes, and my single takes some inspiration from Bollywood. Great match!
desihits @anoopdoggdesai From Lady Gaga to 50 cent, DH! has brought South Asian culture to the west, what are your thoughts on east meets west?
AnoopDoggDesai @desihits the E-W fusion seems so natural to me- it pretty much describes my life! With music especially, though. The Beatles exposed the West to Indian music on Across the Universe, and now there's a new generation of collaboration between Bollywood and W. pop music that I find exciting. So proud that the 2 types of music that shaped me are working together! I hope to be a part of it
desihits @anoopdoggdesai So are were going to be hearing some desi beats on your upcoming album?
AnoopDoggDesai @desihits you'll definitely hear that influence. I listened to Lata and Mukesh in the car on the way to school, at the same time I was listening to BoyzIIMen, Taal at the same time as I was into Brandy. It affects a lot of things I write. But it's not going to be forced on any song where it doesn't belong. I'm just trying to make the best music possible by using all of my backgrounds!
desihits @anoopdoggdesai Hate to ask. But how did feel about being compared to the other desi idol contestant Sanjaya Malakar
AnoopDoggDesai @desihits Found it funny. Anyone that compares us is...aurally challenged haha. Stereotypes are a part of life, my goal is to transcend them
desihits @anoopdoggdesai Great answer! Speaking of Idol tell us about the whole experience? What did you learn?
AnoopDoggDesai @desihits It taught me about the music industry and showed me a level of success I'm very hungry achieve again. It made me hungry & humble
desihits @anoopdoggdesai What's your best memory from the show? What you do reality tv again?
AnoopDoggDesai @desihits Meeting Berry Gordy, Smokey Robinson, and Stevie Wonder in the same week is a highlight of my LIFE, so that has to be the best. I would never do a competition show again, but I think people would be interested in the post-Idol journey on a show...We'll see!
desihits @anoopdoggdesai That would be interesting. Will we be seeing more TV appearances from you. Anything we should look out for?
AnoopDoggDesai @desihits For now, the only TV appearances we're planning are to promote the single. I'll announce all of them here on Twitter and Facebook. When www.anoopdesai.com is fully up in a few weeks, that'll be updated every day! Also behind the scenes vids, etc!
desihits @anoopdoggdesai Great speaking to you! To wrap things up do you have a message for all your fans?
AnoopDoggDesai @desihits Thanks so much, likewise! Just want to thank all my fans for their support- This is going to be an exciting couple months! And I want to encourage everyone to keep up with www.desihits.com for news about me and other SE Asian artists! Thanks so much!
desihits @anoopdoggdesai Good Luck Anoop! Thanks for you time.
