After years steadily building a reputation as the go-to lyricist for Punjabi mainstays like Jazzy B, Bohemia and Jassie Gill, Karan Aujla stepped into his own in 2018. Teaming up with singer Gurlej Akhtar, he broke through with “Don’t Worry”—they would later reunite for hits like “Red Eyes” and “Haan Haige Aa”—and it established rousing conviction as his calling card across a raft of party anthems and forthright cuts. Whether it’s with buoyant, shimmering hip-hop (“Na Na Na”) or icy trap (“Black Money”), Aujla holds forth on the importance of perseverance in his booming croon.

Bollywood Chill

by Apple Music Bollywood

by Apple Music Tamil

Harris Jayaraj pushed himself to accomplish at the highest levels from an early age. His father—a guitarist and composer—began his Carnatic training when Jayaraj was just six.

Rahman and Mani Sharma came knocking.

Diljit Dosanjh Essentials

by Apple Music Punjabi

The face and voice of Punjabi regional cinema since 2003, singer/composer/actor Diljit Dosanjh was born into a Sikh family whose musical heritage is often reflected in the two-sided mrdanga or pakhawaj drums that drive his music. He's a Punjabi everyman with a voice that can be devotionally strident (check out the heavy "Gobind De Lal”), but also possesses pop star fervour on club tracks like "Happy Birthday", a rollicking blend of Auto-Tuned vocals and sinuous keyboards.

Arijit Singh Essentials

by Apple Music Bollywood

One of the most distinctive male voices of contemporary Bollywood, Arijit Singh brings an intimate, husky timbre to breezy acoustic-driven pop and swelling, cinematic numbers marked by romantic strings and ethereal synths. While the playback singer's wheelhouse is the soul-stirring love ballad that marks many a heartfelt movie moment, Singh is a versatile performer who's as adept at poetic paeans as he is club thumpers, boisterous bhangra tracks, Punjabi folk and Arabic pop flavoured with his memorable vibrato.

Kishore Kumar Essentials

by Apple Music Bollywood

Singer, actor, composer, lyricist, director, script writer, comedian—there were very few things that Kishore Kumar couldn’t do. Kumar was one of the greatest playback singers of the Indian film industry and was the first Hindi playback singer to yodel, as well as being one of the few singers who took risks and experimented with different styles of music. His voice was like a breath of fresh air and he could handle comedy, despair, love and passion with an equal amount of ease. Listen to our collection of timeless songs sung by this legendary singer of the Indian music industry.

Breaking Bollywood

by Apple Music Bollywood

Music from Bollywood films is ever-surprising, and everything from classical and hip-hop to a bevy of electronic sub-genres are among its influences. A rap interlude ensconced within a patriotic paean is just as likely to be heard as a club-friendly banger moonlighting as an earnest romantic ballad. This playlist is updated regularly, so if you like a song, add it to your library.

Arijit Singh: Love Songs

by Apple Music Bollywood

A.R. Rahman Tamil Essentials

by Apple Music Tamil

Since bursting onto the scene for his sweeping, romantic soundtrack to Roja in 1992, A.R. Rahman has dominated the Indian film music industry.

Anirudh Ravichander Essentials

by Apple Music Tamil

Anirudh Ravichander found fame with the quirky, viral single “Why This Kolaveri Di?” and received critical acclaim for his work on David and Maan Karate. His film scores and viral sensations mash up traditional South Indian instruments and melodies with danceable rhythms, hip-hop swagger, big bass drops and metal-inspired attitude. Ravichander’s songs are the sound of modern Tamil cinema: bursting with colour, melodrama and escapism, respectful of the vibrant heritage but unafraid to shake up the status quo.

2000s Telugu Essentials

by Apple Music Telugu

Composers such as Harris Jayaraj and Mani Sharma shaped the sound of Telugu music in the 2000s, while a broader trend saw Bollywood voices such as Udit Narayan and Shreya Ghoshal singing in Telugu. The music blurred boundaries with genres as well, with high-energy songs being paired with memorable dance sequences as visuals.

Bollywood Essentials

by Apple Music Bollywood

Whether a comedy or a drama, the music and voices of Bollywood films have always had their constants: a desire to move the feet and the soul, and a drive to change with the times. These instant classics of the 20th and 21st centuries bolster traditional Sufi devotionals and bhangra dance breaks with Western instrumentals and classical flourishes. Alongside these powerful fusions are songs influenced by international pop and hip-hop, befitting India's ties with both its own medley of cultures and its diaspora.

by Apple Music Tamil

The multitalented musician won four Indian National Film Awards by fusing traditional Indian instruments with full symphony orchestration.

2000s Tamil Essentials

by Apple Music Tamil

Take a trip back to when maestros like A.R. Rahman were earning their stripes, pioneering in Tamil songs that took folk and traditional music and blended it with rock, hip-hop and electronic sounds. These hits took listeners into a new musical world that still inspires with its lyrical and sonic diversity.

Bollywood Shaadi Hits

by Apple Music Bollywood

Ever since film-makers like Karan Johar and Sooraj Barjatya made weddings an integral part of Bollywood films in the 1990s, Bollywood style has influenced real-life Indian marriage ceremonies, from lavish decor and outfits to mehndi and sangeet. Meanwhile, shaadi songs can brighten any magical occasion and are perfect for a sangeet, a cocktail night and pre-nuptial parties. Put these Hindi film hits on and watch everyone head to the dance floor.

Phonk

by Apple Music

A massive hit with online gym and drift videos, phonk thrives on a highly bassy and warped, chiptune- and cowbell-driven smorgasbord of sounds that sometimes barely echoes the genre’s lineage in ’90s southern hip-hop and trap. These new and recent essentials shine a light on the producers driving digital phonk—and variants like aggressive, drift, house phonk and beyond. They alternate high-octane, electronics-heavy mixtures and moody, low-lit atmospheres strewn with choppy vocals and distorted rhymes. This is the perfect soundtrack to an ingenuously synthesised, thrill-seeking ride.

AP Dhillon Essentials

by Apple Music Punjabi

Singer, songwriter, rapper and producer AP Dhillon has garnered a huge fan base with his deft combination of sophisticated pop, smooth R&B and catchy hip-hop. The Gurdaspur-born artist—real name Amritpal Singh Dhillon—released his first track in 2019, and followed with a string of radio-friendly hits that centre his understated vocals. From 2020’s upbeat collab “Brown Munde” to 2022’s blissfully sunny “Summer High”, he’s taking Punjabi pop in new, meaningful directions.

Shubh Essentials

by Apple Music Punjabi

There are few acts with a strike rate as good as Canadian-Punjabi hip-hop star Shubh, who’s been scoring smashes right off the bat since 2021. His is a hit formula of effortless swag, clever lyricism, burnished beats and a laid-back flow that makes the sharpest bars land with understated ease. Whether he’s drawing on influences from pop, reggae or R&B, the singer, rapper and songwriter delivers it all with a distinct sonic stamp. Shubh doesn’t release music at the breakneck pace of his contemporaries—but as this collection of chart-toppers demonstrates, he’s always valued quality over quantity.

Telugu Romance

by Apple Music Telugu

Romantic balladry and folksy love anthems are a staple of Telugu film music. The revered S. P. Balasubrahmanyam is the silvery voice behind a few decades' worth of hits, but his mantle has now deservedly passed to modern troubadours such as Nikhil D'Souza, Sagar and Rahul Nambiar. This playlist is updated regularly, so if you like a song, add it to your library.

Kumar Sanu Essentials

by Apple Music Bollywood

The son of renowned classical singer Pashupati Bhattacharya, Kedernath Bhattacharya, a.k.a. Kumar Sanu, followed in the footsteps of his father at a very young age.

Bollywood Hits: Best of 2025

by Apple Music Bollywood

Some of the best music that emerges from India every year comes straight from colourful Bollywood movies—and 2025 was no exception. Lyricist Amitabh Bhattacharya has been a key figure in adding depth and intimacy, while retaining a conversational tone that’s made him such a relatable voice in poignant Hindi film songs.

The Weeknd Essentials

by Apple Music R&B

Nobody makes feeling bad sound as good as The Weeknd. Even the singer’s sunniest tracks (“Can’t Feel My Face”, “Starboy”) feel anchored by darkness—the sense that pleasure is pain and beauty decays and you can’t have the night without the morning after. The brainchild of Toronto singer Abel Tesfaye, the project took off in 2011 with a string of mixtapes that forged cavernous, falsetto-driven R&B with narratives drenched in drugs, sex and other regrettable decisions—a sound both sensuous and detached, feather-light and dead heavy. His music has become a symbol of hedonism pushed to bleak excess, with songs—“The Hills”, “Often”, “Earned It (Fifty Shades of Grey)”, “After Hours”—whose narrators can’t seem to say no even if they’ll hate themselves for it later. And though the sound has gotten a little brighter over time (“In Your Eyes”, “Take My Breath”), the prevailing mood remains heavy, even unsettling—the ride you want more of even when you’ve had too much.

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Essentials

by Apple Music

Continuing the 600-year-old qawwali tradition in his family, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan has been widely credited with introducing Sufi music to an international audience. Popularly known as Shahenshah-e-Qawwali, Khan has been hailed by many as one of the greatest singers ever recorded. He possessed a tremendous vocal range and could perform at a high level of intensity for several hours without a break. His hypnotic and powerful voice has inspired a new generation of qawwali lovers who still swear by his name, despite his death in 1997. We relive Khan's legacy with this collection of his best work.

Haryana-born, Australia-raised rapper Dhanda Nyoliwala carries his hometown of Nyoli with him in his name and in his music, often invoking Haryanvi culture like he’s never too far from home.

Rahman is an icon of the Indian music and film industry: he has been featured on Time magazine’s list of the world’s most influential people, won two Oscars and received the Padma Bhushan award in 2010 from the Indian government.

Meanwhile, “Nadaan Parinde” reveals his knack for epic stadium-rock anthems.

Despite super hit songs such as "Akkam Pakkam" to his credit, G. V.

With more than 50 films as composer under his belt, he decided to shed his inhibitions and try acting, too. This is a composer who constantly strives to move out of his comfort zone.

2010s Telugu Essentials

by Apple Music Telugu

In the 2010s, Telugu film composers continued the tradition of inviting vocalists from across India to add a distinct, language-transcending touch—from singer-composer Anirudh Ravichander (more known for his work on Tamil soundtracks) to pop heartthrob Armaan Malik and playback star Amit Mishra. The likes of Devi Sri Prasad and Thaman S. floated rock, club-friendly electronic music and modern pop arrangements. And breaking talent included Sid Sriram, who climbed to the top with his Carnatic-trained harmonising that fuelled several indelible cross-genre hits.

LINKIN PARK Essentials

by Apple Music Hard Rock

Es sind die Gegensätze, die LINKIN PARK ausmachen. Da treffen messerscharfe Gitarrenriffs auf groß angelegte Refrains und Electronica-Einflüsse. Da stehen die Raps von Mike Shinoda neben dem hochemotionalen Gesang von Chester Bennington. Die Kalifornier wendeten diese Erfolgsformel erstmals auf ihrem 2000 erschienenen Debüt „Hybrid Theory“ an – bis zu Chester Benningtons Tod 2017 perfektionierten sie sie auf sechs weiteren Alben.

Fred again.. Essentials

by Apple Music Electronic

Fred Gibson, aka Fred again.., is one of the best-connected house DJs in the game. Ambient royalty Brian Eno took him under his wing as a teenager, and the London producer has since worked with some of the biggest names around. Gibson’s songs consistently offer diary-like snapshots of a specific time and place, with his Actual Life album series even listing the exact date ranges of creation in their titles. On 2021’s pulsing 2-step track “Marea (We’ve Lost Dancing)”, The Blessed Madonna mourns for the fun halted by COVID-19, while 2022’s “Delilah (pull me out of this)” samples Delilah Montagu for similarly poignant results. “I’ve become really obsessed with…taking very fleeting moments and exposing as much beauty as is in them,” he told Apple Music’s Zane Lowe in 2022. He has very much continued to do that ever since, whether spotlighting Nigerian singer Obongjayar on 2023’s delicate valentine “adore u” or swinging in the opposite direction with the in-your-face swagger of 2025’s “Victory Lap”, a track that has earned multiple joyful permutations. Both a chameleonic creator and a consummate collaborator, Gibson zeroes in on little epiphanies that underscore the community-building inherent to dance music.
