Musical lyrics give meaning to moments making them memorable. They are the soul of any song. But the irony is that soulful music loses this soul amidst the commercialization of this craft. The culture of apathy and erasure where the lyrists do not get due credits for their creation has been the legacy for generations.
Fifteen contemporary lyrics writers from the Hindi film industry came together to raise this concern and demand the well-earned credits for their creations. The fun and catchy song “Credit de do yaar” is written by Kausar Munir, Varun Grover and Swanand Kirkire, while it is sung by Swanand Kirkire. This Lyrics Writers Anthem features Sameer Anjaan, Amitabh Bhattacharya, Neelesh Misra, Manoj Muntashir, Mayur Puri, Kumaar, Shellee, Anvita Dutt, Swanand Kirkire, Kausar Munir, Raj Shekhar, Abhiruchi Chand, Hussain Haidry, Puneet Sharma and Varun Grover.
“They are all in this together, Unko Credit de do yaar.”
