Featuring the Calypso legend, The Mighty Sparrow, 'Rainbow Raani' is one of the best music scores for an independant film - what makes it interesting is Mighty Sparrow's collaboration with Rhythm Mandir on songs that are actually not Calypso.

Also making her debut in the Rainbow Raani soundtrack, is Karen Francisco - daughter of The Mighty Sparrow. Karen is Naomi's voice in the film, and sings 'Only A Woman Can' & 'Betrayal'.

In the King's own words, "I don’t have a monopoly on talent. I got to listen to it, and I thought this is nice. These guys have sweet voices. Can you improve perfection? I see this as a smash hit.” (http://www.nwanews.com/nwat/Living/36747/).

Fantastic, original and exotic.
author: Dino V
In today's American Culture it is hard to find a "new" sound that opens up the mind to the diversity of other cultures. Artists like Sting have dabbled in and attempted to bring an Indian sound into the pop culture of American music. Rainbow Raani Delivers! With sensual lyrics and mystical jams, it brings the listener to a place they've never been. It has such an erotic and exotic feel to music, the listener can sense the passion the band brings to each song. From the female vocals to the Calypso King’s haunting voice, this CD is a must have for anyone tired of being bored and looking for something fresh and new.
