Harjit Singh Sehgal aka Baba Sehgal

Engineer turned rap singer, Harjit Singh Sehgal, popularly known as Baba, has carved a niche for himself on the Indian Pop scene. Known for his whacky Iyrics, wild sense of humour and earthy rhythms, Baba has shot into the limelight. A much sought after host, stage performer and model, Baba commands a large audience wherever he performs.

Baba Sehgal the rap king of India appeared on the scene in 1990, his very first album was 'Dilruba' and his second album was 'Alibaba' (1991)

The first two albums did not sell very well but with his third album Baba shot to fame - the album 'Thanda Thanda Pani'(1992), this included numerous hit tracks like Thanda Thanda Pani, Chor and Dil Dhadke. In my opinion this album exploited Baba's hidden talents in every aspect from writing the lyrics, composing and singing the songs.

After his third album there was no looking back for Baba his next album was also an instant success, album was called 'Main Bhi Madonna'(1993). His next album 'Baba Bachaona' (1993) did not do very well.

His other albums include 'Dr.Dhingra' (1994), 'Indian Romyo' (1995), Ms. Loomba Loomba (1996), Lion King (1997).
