In a society in which so many young individuals seek fame and fortune it is truly refreshing when a unique and naturally talented Musican surfaces. I recently met with ‘International Misfit’ Ni Singh creator of L.I.M – The League of International Misfits, to gain an insight into his music, dreams and aspirations. I have met various other up and coming artists, but non with the motivation and drive that Ni Singh possesses, which is just one of the main ingredients to success in the music industry. At a time in which it is easier to be creative and build up a fan base through a wide range of media forms it is refreshing to meet a unique individual with such raw talent and drive. Nigel Singh’s heritage is Guyanese his mother Catholic Guyanese and his father Hindu Guyanese, after being born in London he moved to Guyana, studying at various schools there, as well as in Jamaica and East Anglia. Nigel Singh has been making music for 20 years a self taught guitarist with the strong influences of The Beatles and Queen.“In Jamaica we had no TV – I have two tapes to listen to – both bootlegs – The Rolling Stones, Simon and Garfunkel and an Indian spiritual tape that included Hare Krishna. That was my musical upbringing” – Nigel SinghIt is clear through the lyrical content that there is a strong message that Ni is telling the world, the message from a rounded and intelligent Guyanese man. When asked what the meaning and values behind the musical movement he stated that: “I’m an internationalist. I’m globally curious. I’m really interested in different cultures, its open – not specific. The League is about writing from a point of reference.” - Nigel SinghIt could thus be assumed that Nigel Singh’s music should be categorised in the world music genre, although all artists should be given the room to grow and in more modern English society allowed to create their own sub genres and not be forced to adorn to set generic conventions. If music is about expression and allowing a message to be heard and felt then Nigel Singh has a good chance of making a permanent mark in the way in which English musicians stand alone, strong with originality and drive.The timing couldn’t be more perfect in a society in which we are constantly updating, and documenting our lives in media forms for all to see. Media forms such as Twitter, Ping and Facebook, allowing individuals to advertise, to promote and most importantly to gain feedback and to grow. The L.I.M has a strong character and individuals from various backgrounds and walks of life can learn from music and its values and message, as well as become part of the movement ensuring that people feel involved and a part of something that could potentially to huge. If we look at the movement L.I.M that Nigel Singh has created, and not only analyse but get involved it is clear to see that it is the perfect marketing strategy for all the good reasons.
