My Take
What I admire most about Shakthisree Gopalan is her refusal to be boxed in. Plenty of playback singers ride the prestige of working with composers like A.R. Rahman and stop there, but she keeps one foot firmly in the independent scene, sliding between pop, R&B, trip-hop and jazz with real curiosity. That dual life tells me she sings to satisfy herself first, audiences second. There is a textured, slightly smoky quality to artists who move this freely across idioms, and I suspect her live shows reveal far more than any film soundtrack credit ever could. I would happily seek out a club set over a chart hit.
