After hearing the child out Vishal asked him if he even knew what he was singing, &#8220;Focus on things that suit you. Don&#8217;t sing about things like these,&#8221; Vishal gently reprimanded the child.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13px;line-height: 19px\">So is Vishal Dadlani opposed to Honey Singh&#8217;s brand of sexually charged songs?  <\/span>When contacted Vishal Dadlani protests,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I am no fan of Yo Yo Honey Singh&#8217;s lyrics. But I am all for his right to write and sing what he wants. Art will always reflect life. And sadly, these unfortunate lyrics and their undeniable popularity are a reflection of a certain reality.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Vishal feels the adult content of Yo Yo Honey Singh&#8217;s music must not be exposed to kids. &#8220;I do feel that they are not appropriate for kids. I strongly feel that if an artiste&#8217;s music is high on sexual content it should say so on the album cover, or on the download link. We need to ensure that there is a mechanism that directs adult content towards adults.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>About reprimanding the child who rapped, a la Yo Yo Honey Singh, Vishal avers, &#8220;It is very important to have clearer parenting guidelines in this country. Parenting should evolve to a point where parents are made responsible for what their children watch and hear. Since parents are unable to educate or control their kids, I think it&#8217;s our duty as judges on children&#8217;s music contests to point it out to the child if what he sings is not suitable to him.&#8221;  Vishal feels there is a market for all kinds of music. &#8220;We must stop blaming producers for selling explicit music content. There is a market for sensuality, sexuality even perhaps for crudity. And the sooner we stop being hypocrites about it the better.&#8221;  Parental monitoring of what children listen to and a clear in-your-face indication of the music&#8217;s intentions is vital to safeguarding children against music unsuitable for their age. Says Vishal, &#8220;Who is responsible for what a child hears? Censorship is not the answer. Judicious parenting coupled with an effective demarcation-and-rating system are the solution.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yo Yo Honey Singh is completely in agreement with Vishal.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Though I don&#8217;t think I sing anything vulgar, I do think some of my songs are not for children. Unfortunately or fortunately I&#8217;ve a sizeable fan-following among kids and they do tend to memorize my songs. I just have to be more careful about the content. But I can&#8217;t stop kids from singing my songs.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vishal Dadlani speaks out against Yo Yo Honey Singh on Junior Indian Idol A very young Sikh contestant on the children&#8217;s singing show Junior Indian Idol repelled world renowned music composer, Vishal<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8033,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,6375],"tags":[7937,992],"class_list":["post-8031","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured-news","category-hip-hop-news","tag-vishal-dadlani","tag-yo-yo-honey-singh"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jcsoftwaresolution.com\/desihiphop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8031","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jcsoftwaresolution.com\/desihiphop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jcsoftwaresolution.com\/desihiphop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jcsoftwaresolution.com\/desihiphop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jcsoftwaresolution.com\/desihiphop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8031"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/jcsoftwaresolution.com\/desihiphop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8031\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jcsoftwaresolution.com\/desihiphop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8033"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jcsoftwaresolution.com\/desihiphop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8031"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jcsoftwaresolution.com\/desihiphop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8031"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jcsoftwaresolution.com\/desihiphop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8031"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
