Hey Rahil, I`m glad you`re doing so well in Trinidad with your music (one of my favourite Football Players of the 90s is from there... Dwight Yorke )... to live on a carribean Island alone is a dream Fantasy for most People i guess; to be a Rockstar on a carribean Island tops that, he he

Damn it! I'm sorry I missed this Rahil.. really would like to hear it if you're able to post a recording sometime. are you currently working on any new songs?

hehe, thank you kapoo just promoting the 4 albums as usual (

That was great man, thanks for posting the vid! I really like the chorus there on All On You, thats a good one man! Have to tell you, I thought that interviewer was sort of a dick! he was always interupting you in a way.. and when he was harping on you getting your stuff on iTunes!? I would have been like 'look man, I'm doing well and have in under control, I'd rather not get into all the in's and outs of my sales figures or strategy, fans don't want to hear about that!' That guy was a bit overbearing I thought. so be honest, you're telling me you really don't eat meat? That's crazy! I couldn't imagine I'm betting you sneak meat and just don't tell anyone (kidding) Good work buddy, wish you all the success in the world!

thank you very much kapoo haha, yes, i agree about the interruptions being annoying.. i had given him an agenda of points i wanted to cover in the 10 minute segment and even went through some with him just before being on air, yet he strayed from that and you see how it went, even when i tried to put it back on course.. haha.. anyway, yet another tv spot, so always good haha @ sneaking thank you for your good wishes again and for checking things out oh here is the agenda from last friday's performance at the Central Bank's (
and 'heartless' is at #11 this week (13 weeks on the charts, peaked at #2 for several weeks in the past) so vote from now for nextweek monday's chart - send email to indigenoustt@gmail.com stating 'this is a vote for Rahil Babooram - all on you, never again, heartless, hermosita, sweetness, until your candle burns out, a love song, kalau nasty (greenlight version)' and if anyone wants to purchase my albums, you can check out trinidadtunes.com, click on 'search site' and put in 'Rahil' thank you everyone for your continued support all the best ♪ -
"Flickering and Unsteady" I can relate to that title, hee hee. It's a great song too. I want to hear your "Bluebird" can you place the URL to that here again, was looking for it but didnt come across it ..."All On You," reminds me of a George Harrison song, his style (which ain't too shabby ) I fancy its anti-drug theme too. Very much so. You convey a sense, a strong feeling of not harming oneself with chemicals, of living a clean healthy lifestyle. And not destroying the environment. Your voice sounds reproving, admonishing but not in an overdone too-preachy manner. The song and your singing on it sound kind of sophisticated too. Cultured. Why did you move to Trinidad from Canada? Do you love it there and why? Will certainly listen to your stuff again more Saturday when I get the chance, am becoming a fan Those photo montages of you playing all the instruments in the same shot are quite clever and striking. Your music sounds quite professional and well done, well, you did say you'd been into it since a very early age and had grown up influenced by your parents' 60's and 70's records, more so than the 80's music probably (perhaps you should be glad of that ).
