Being a bona fide pop star isn’t just about turning out the sonic goods with mass appeal; it’s also about showcasing as much of one’s innate personality and magnetism as possible. And this is precisely what Shanthesh Kumar—aka Santesh—brings to the table. While his breakout hit “Amalina” features a classic Malay pop sound, it’s in numbers such as the invigoratingly rhythmic “Mr. Peter” and “Wifi” that his inimitable panache shines through. Perhaps not coincidentally, these cuts also include a prominent bhangra influence, in a clear nod Santesh’s Indian roots.
