American Reacts - Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan "Raag" 2014 Nobel Peace Prize Concert

This is my first experience with Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. This is the kind of artist I would love to explore. I was on the edge of my seat every other verse. Apparently, I have 50 albums to explore. Please share recommendations!

I'm glad you reacted to our country music 🇵🇰😊 He's a legend 💜

[@aamnahere6250]

Just a correction: He's a Pakistani qawwal and Sufi singer, not an Indian. There are many great Indian singers as well obviously but Pakistani artists deserve to be recognized as Pakistani.

[@rohitlal2222]

Pakistan was made out of India

[@mastahmind2010]

Pakistani were Al Indians in the time before 1947. And let me tell you something The instruments and the sa re ga ma not came from the pakistans but from the Vedic scriptures Shame Veda.

[@hx_z4]

@@mastahmind2010 there was no india before 1947, it was called hindustan. Pakistan and india as a country came later. the instruments u r talking about was not just made for india. It was made in hindustan and both pakistan and india have rights to it even after parting away into two countries.

Listen to his teacher.. ustad nusrat fateh ali khan ... both are Best vocalists + Amjad sabri... Listen thm

[@foxeswolves2419]

The one instruments he played was harmonium and it's a traditional instrument mostly in India and Pakistan. It looked like a small piano from front but back side works with air.

[@simranmehra912]

No, an accordion is a different instrument than a harmonium

[@block4671]

Not only India, Pakistan bro, Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan also. You can say whole subcontinent💕

[@TheAbdullahVibe]

"ustad" means "the master" so he is the master of classical and semi-classical music in Pakistan and whole subcontinent after Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali

[@Shairony]

You can check out Rahat's: 1. Afreen Afreen 2. Rang 3. Chaap Tilak, all of them are from coke studio Pakistan and all of them have subtitles. DO NOT MISS the subtitles from Afreen Afreen! You can also check out couple of songs from coke studio Bangla. I think you might like 1) Bulbuli 2) Shob loke koy, 3) Prarthona. Again, all of them have subtitles.

[@premin22]

In the beginning he just started with 'sargam letter- sa re ga ma pa dha ni sa'.... Than he sang.... "You will forget joking around about love untill you yourself fall in love".....and its really not joke fallen in love with his songs...

Nice reaction 😍 Rahat fateh Ali Khan - He is a legend. He doctored in music in Oxford University & Oxford University has named one of its rooms after Rahat Fateh Ali Khan that makes him the first South Asian artist to receive such an honour.

He's definitely 'popping off' and party time is right - he basically did a medley of a variety of songs strung together as only a Ustaad (expert teacher) can. Thank you for exploring a whole new world of music. Loved it!

[@gungunsitariya3724]

Omg!!! You will have a gr8 time checking south Asian music trust me. Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan is Pakistani,a legendary musician who's also very loved here in India. He's playing Harmonium and he's actually doing a lot of classical(not western classical)influenced takes while singing, it's not a single track, and he's not scatting actually he's singing the notes(Sargam), and vocal precursions(both are like vocal exercises). And about the tempo😅unless you are familiar with music of regions like India, Pak, Bengal, etc you will find it hard to catch up with the rhythms and patterns but I hope,no I'm actually sure you'll still enjoy it and get familiar with time.

[@ritapatel1209]

He came to Greensboro SC USA on a official tour last Month I was very fortunate to go to his concert He’s Been and Still doing Concerts in USA

[@kkalam88]

Great reaction!!! Ustaad (Maestro) Fateh Ali Khan is a very talented & popular artist in Indo-Pak subcontinent. He has made over 50 albums & has sung myriad of songs for television, movies, dramas and Coke studios Pakistan. Here’s a list of some of the songs from Coke studios Pakistan. Rang (over 43 million views on KZbin) Chaap Tilak (45 million views) Garaj Baras (11 million views) Afreen Afreen (over 367 million views on KZbin) Big thanks from Florida 👍👍

[@Super.youknow]

He has one song near 1 billion views from his own channel

He is playing Harmonium at 4:33. It is a stringed instrument made of wood, metal, brass, and cloth and is used widely in Indian classical music and is very popular as an accompaniment to solo singing and Qawwali singing in Pakistan. Really liked your reaction and looking forward to more such videos..

Jim, so happy to have discovered your channel. Rahat Fateh Ali Khan is a legend, a gem and one who gives his listeners actual goosebumps. Since you're from Attleboro, I would say check him out live in a concert. He comes to Boston/Andover every couple of years. Looking forward to watching your other reactions as well. Your neighbor from RI :)

[@MrTalhakamran2006]

Rahat Fateh is juggernaut of vocal that is yet to meet a an equal match (composer) who can get a masterpiece out of this guy. Anxiously waiting for that moment to happen.

He is a legend and a nephew of the most legendary Pakistani singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, who taught him what you witnessed here. All the compositions he sang are those of Nusrat. And btw I would say he is still 75% at Nusrat's level.

OH MY GOD??!😭 THANK YOU SO MUCH JIM.... RAHAT IS LEGEND 😭🙏

Hy jim so he is playing harmonium very common and almost equivalent to piano used by all classical indian /pakistani singers.He voice has so much power in his voice!!! He actually sang two different song medley but most of the parts were just sa re ga ma pa ( thats just do re mi indian version) a very typical of clasical music

[@ayeshafaryal331]

Check out his performance in Rung Coke Studio, Afreen Afreen Coke Studio. Great reaction

[@manasango]

He also did alap for the movie "Apocalypto" as his uncle Nusrat Fateh Ali khan did for the movie "the last temptations of Christ". Worthy to listen...

[@arjunray7390]

The instrument is the harmonium. This is a medley of songs of his (late) legendary uncle, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. A lot of the displays of vocal dexterity involve just the syllables of the solfege - sa-re-ga-ma-pa-dha-ni - rather than true lyrics. He is nearly as good as his uncle was, but both are a class apart.

[@Mayan381]

I know many foreigners can't react to it or understand him, us being local, we can't get him sometimes because he's not just a Legend, He's completely off the scales just like his Mentor The Original Ustad.

[@smbmrizvi]

Watch Coke Studio - Chap Tilak .... greastes song every written, composed and sung by Abida Parveen and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan.... Chap Tilak was written around 800 years ago ... and has been sung by thousands of people over last 800 years... Chap Tilak is the modern master piece....

[@nadeemahmed1694]

So Awesome Performance

[@ascorpio1]

‘Ustad’ is a title which is given to singers once they reach a certain level of singing and accomplishments. It means master. Other singers will be addressed with their names. His uncle Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is known as the king of Qawwals. Qawali is a form of singing that’s performed in a group say on the floor. Great reactions.

[@arsalanchauhan]

He comes from a long line of musicians his Uncle wa Nusra Fateh Ali Khan th greatest musician ever also known as the King of King of Qawali music, Peter Gabriel called him the greatest vocalist of all time and he was Rahats mentor and his father performed with Nusrat thus talent assed on and Rahat can be called the best vocalist alive. Qawali music is actually one of the oldest muic if not the oldest music in its original form still ractices and the skatting you pointed is called RAAG it is much older than JAZZ and these guys have been practicing it for centuries ppassed onto newer generations, their ancestors used to perform in the courts of Mughal Emperors centuries ago and invented new ways to impress them, so welcome to the most oldest for of music in it purest form alive today. You should react to ""Chaap Tilak"" by Rahad and another female singer Abida Parveen who is called Queen of Sufi Music another centuries old form/genre of music, a living legend.
