01- Maate Vinaduga

Vocalists: Sid Sriram

Rating: 4/5

 This song has been trending in all the playlist 's is a pure romantic swag. Like 'Inkem inkem' this one is one more melody. Now'a'days it's very hard to find purest form of melody, but these kinds prove that melody never dies. Sid Sriram, the youth sensation is heard now & then in telugu songs, usually he's admired for his rich vocal quality & tone which has some ethereal quality. But the thing which always puts him in a backlog situation is his accent & pronunciation. His Telugu dialect sounds too false, but due to increasing opportunities he's improving & is not at all sounding like a 'Tamil' singer. This song has rich melodious music & vocals. Jakes made it soft & neat with no unnecessary extravaganza. Krishna kanth's lyrics are brilliant. Sid Sriram is amazing.

02- Crazy Car
Vocalist: L V Revanth
Rating: 3/5

This is the intro song, I guess.  Taxiwala is a movie which has Vijay & taxi as leading characters. So, we find that peppy contemporary instrumentation all over, which sets the mood high on situation. Is the title of this song written correctly?, Coz the songs' title written here & rendered there aren't the same!! Jakes orchestration is perfect. Krishna Kanth took a safe route, he used all those Tenglish phrases to cash the contemporary listeners. Revanth is as usual amazing. His voice throw, expression,rendition , vocal tone everything hit the right chord. It's so nice to listen to him after many days. Overall a decent song.

03. Ladies & Gentlemen
Vocalists: Vedala Hema chandra & Jakes Bejoy
Rating: 2.5/5

This is a routine commercial song, which fills up the screen space , which can neither be embraced nor forgotten!! Jakes is fine once again. Krishna kanth's lyrics are below par. Don't know why Hema Chandra tries to imitate some other singer's style though he has a good one!! He tries to bring in all those western styled rendition which doesn't gel well, whole song he tried to sing like Sonu Nigam, but he can never sing like him. Hema Chandra has a great voice, brilliant style of singing but don't know why he limits himself & brings all that creepy flavor. Hope atleast from now he comes out from that cage. This song didn't work for me, may be it requires multiple loops.

04. Neeve Neeve
Vocalists: ShreyaGhoshal
Rating: 4.5/5

A melancholic lullaby sung & composed very effectively. This is the only song which features a female voice in the entire album & that too when it's ShreyaGhoshal,what else would a music lover expect . ShreyaGhoshal, her voice has all the magic, she doesn't require any tune or lyric, her voice makes up everything. This versatile talent sings this song like a pro. The moment we hear to her voice we can predict the genre, like Chitra she too has that capacity to change the tone while singing for a particular gerne. Jakes has done a praiseworthy job. I didn't understand what Krishna wanted to convey, all the phrases indicate pain but nothing more. With this song we can firmly say that this isn't the same commercial entertainer but has something else to do with.

OVERALL RATING: 7/10

PICKS OF THE ALBUM: Maate Vinaduga  & Neeve Neeve

Remarks: 'Taxiwala'  finally slated to release on Nov 17, 2018, gets it's jukebox out with 4 different songs. Trivia is even though all the songs are dominated by masculine gender , ShreyaGhoshal with her solo performance proves that no song in the album can match her perfection. It's great listening to her voice.
