Too Rasool by Badusha

Badusha has delivered memorable performances before, but Too Rasool sits comfortably among the very best. Behind the melody is the work of Kabeer Saqafi Nattyamangalam, whose composition choices give Too Rasool its distinctive texture.

Badusha brings a warmth to Too Rasool that no production choice could manufacture — it has to be felt, and here it is. a talented ensemble cast are at the heart of Too Rasool, and Too Rasool captures their dynamic at its most compelling.

2020 marked the release of Too Rasool, and Too Rasool was the track that ensured the album would be remembered. It fits the playlist for almost any occasion, which is rare — most songs have a narrow emotional window. This one does not.

The 3:46 runtime feels perfectly judged — long enough to develop its ideas, short enough to compel a second play. It is, simply, one of the better songs to come from Malayalam in recent memory — and the numbers agree.
