The bygone bardic battles of Bengal
Far more than a mere musical pursuit, Kabi Gaan boasts an illustrious heritage, its roots firmly embedded in the fertile soil of 18th century-Bengal’s rural landscape.
Singer-songwriter Ariana Grande has a message for people who leaked her music.
The singer recently spoke about some of her music from studio sessions with Grammy-winning producer Max Martin getting leaked on TikTok, including her song ‘Fantasize’, reports ‘People’ magazine.
She said on the Zach Sang Show, “Before I left for ‘Wicked’, the few studio sessions I did, which are all — all — over TikTok, thank you so much.”

Ariana then sent a message to the hackers: “I’ll see you in jail, literally.”
As per ‘People’, she explained that those songs were actually written for an unnamed TV show, not for her.
“So ‘Fantasize’ comes out — ‘comes out’ — crazy, was stolen. Comes out? Thieves, pirates, crooks, illegal. I’ll pay you more to put it away, to get it back,” she said with a laugh.
Ariana explained that the original version was “a parody of a 1990s girl group vibe”.
The singer then said that people had already heard them because hackers “stole them again.”
Ariana said: “They’re very different now — so that’s exciting, too.”
When asked by Sang if she’s heard fan made songs using an artificial-intelligence-powered version of her own voice, she remained unimpressed: “Yes, what are we doing? Why? I hate it.”
