Good Change from the usual Persian music Scene

by mrramin on Fri Apr 08, 2011 05:28 AM PDT

Just because of the different Artistic expression, I loved it.  I think any out of the NORM Artistic expression (which we don't have alot of these days) is a welcome change.  Thanks ASA for having the courage to do something different.  I hope more of our kids start thinking outside the box and explore / exercise their artistic emotions.

Good grief...

Why all the hate on Asa? I came across on her stuff back in 2009 and have loved everything she has produced. Sure, her music isn't for everything, but goodness, shouldn't we be giving her two thumbs up for challenging the music scene a little? She isn't making strictly "Persian" or "Modern" music, but falling somewhere in the middle, exploring a new sound that I gather pays homage to her personal history. 

My favorite song of Asa's, "Merci Sexy" has many negative comments on YouTube like the ones that I'll share with you:


1) "i hope this is a joke... for her own good.

dokhtar, boro darseto bekhun, haha"

2) "shame on you...go study"

3) "shameful"

Are these negative comments because she doesn't conform to gender norms that Iranians girls must adhere to and that she isn't ashamed of her body? Is this why the majority on YouTube called her videos a "shameful"? It is okay for us to laud all other non-Iranian performers who do similar things, but when an Iranian does it, we can't accept it.

Asa, don't listen the haters! Keeping doin' your thang :)

Nothing wrong with "modern music"...

But this one was perhaps a bit too modern for me and some others it seems.

Below a modern take on an old Gilak folk song, more to my taste.

But only & only to yourself and for JJ.

Take Red Wine's advice for God's sake to stay in LA but do not bother with professional music trainings. No talent Girl!

به خاطر این آهنگ (صد رحمت به سر و صدای بچه‌های فامیل در زمانیکه میخواستیم چرتی‌ بعد از ناهار بزنیم!)ما به خاطر حفظ آرامش اموات ،طلب مغفرت کرده و ایضا به خاطر خط خطی‌ نشدن بیشتر اعصاب خلق ایرانی..از ایشان تمنا داریم که در همان لوس آنجلس بمانند و هم میهنان خویش را شاد سازند.

یقیناً این دختر خانم میبایستی راهی‌ دیگر در پیش گیرند (بعد از دیدن تمام ویدئو‌های ایشان در یو توب) اگر میخواهند در عالم موسیقی‌ پیشرفت داشته باشند،به عنوان مثال بد نیست ایشان زیر نظر یک معلم صدا چند سالی‌ را مشق کند بلکه اندک لطفی‌ به گوش شنونده که ما باشیم بکند.

موفق باشند.
