Urban Lads - An Example Of Tipping Point?

After successfully screwing up my New Year Resolutions, am back here with a Mashup - Mind Mashup.

Mind - Mine [:)]

Two Applications in the current context are
  1. Tipping Point - a book by Malcolm Gladwell is all about three rules of epidemics. This was recommended by Idea Naren, enabling my thoughts if I could create a Tipping POint myself. (Was it really so?)
  2. Urban Lads - a new album launched last week by College Kids Of Bangalore. Again Idea Naren had suggested this. But Yday I could see these folks near Jayanagar COmplex. Wasnt very impressed in the first quick glimpse. The reason being - 'Was this the way of promoting a Album?'. Again I saw abt them in Bangalore Mirror. Again a Blog by Idea Naren abt the same. In the evening got a call from Dad abt they being live on TV9! I couldnt resist to have a glimpse of the show. The guys were really Cool! I cudnt resist in running to a local shop and buy the Album! I think the Tipping Point had already started working for Urban Lads! No amount of Marketing Heads with Big budgets can create this kind of Tipping Point in so little a time.

Its 4:28 AM, have heard to some of the songs atleast 5 times from past few hours, the numbers are really catchy and some very funny! I am impressed with the number

  • "Bangalorization" and the line that runs through my mind is "Musicalli Kannadana Maadtheevi Naavu Worldwide!!"

Other songs

  • Maada beda
  • Dual Mind
  • Just Miss U

are not boring yet!

BTW Thanks to Urban Lads that I ran into my good old friend at "The Calypso" who had moved back to India for Good.

BTW Mind Mashup is my mind mashing up Tipping POint and Urban Lads!
