#MALOMA embodies the realisation that life is a journey where the inevitability of adulting and nostalgia work as two sides of a coin. As we grow up, there comes a time echoing the question: "What am I doing here?" But within this very questioning lies the potential for a beautiful transformation - a self-acceptance that allows us to bloom even in the most demanding seasons. This folk fusion song serves as a conversation acknowledging this inevitable shift, using the metaphor of a broken boat symbolising life and a river symbolising the world. In addition, the song is infused with ‘Chaad Petano Gan’ (Roofing Music by Masons), a form of ’Shaari Gaan’ (Music of the Boatmen and other worker groups) from the folk genre tracing back to the Mughal Era. An urban version of this was found among building masons around the 80s and 90s, who migrated to cities for livelihood and sang these verses while working to construct concrete roofs. The beats of the paddles, combined with the verses, break monotony, and create a festive atmosphere around their hard work. Pritom takes up the song, infusing his twist, alongside the duo from the Dewan family: Shagor Dewan and Arif Dewan, whose ancestor is the original writer of the song Ma Lo Ma Jhi Lo Jhi. Rapper Aly Hasan joins in and conveys his optimistic perception to create this #RealMagic. Together, it becomes a timeless tale of growth, blossoming into adulthood, and the eternal quest for meaning in an ever-changing world. #CokeStudioBangla #banglamusic
