Earlier this year, Culture Haze spoke to Dabzee about the major collaboration ahead of his Mass Appeal debut.
“Neeraj Madhav contacted me to do this track with him and Baby. He’s one of the biggest southern actors and briefed me about this single “Ballaatha Jathi”. When I listened to the production on that track, I was immediately in the zone. You know, oftentimes, whenever a new beat or song comes my way, I listen to it with my eyes closed and feel it. It helps me gauge the mood of the track… whether it’s fresh or calm. I loved R. Zee’s composition on it and I sent Madhav two demos. He went with the one which you’ve heard,” Dabzee said amidst the exclusive conversation.
Look out for “Padakkuthira” album by Neeraj “NJ” Madhav.
