This was a year marked by young talent. While the regulars such as Sajjad Ali and Shuja Haider belted out one catchy melody after another, it was the new crop of musicians who made it to the finishing line.
Umair Jaswal released his first independent solo video Na Rahoon and Jimmy Khan his debut album Titch Button. There was no shortage of songs with tongue-in-cheek lyrics as well. Abdullah Qureshi celebrated his blues with the Kaali Santro and Ali Aftab gave a melodic ode to Pain Di Siri fame, Khadim Rizvi. As far as the battle of the fizzy drinks is concerned, Coke Studio took a plunge this year with only one song making it to the final 20 and Pepsi raised the bar big time by releasing powerful original numbers.
