These Twin Child Singers Are Ready to Revive Children's Songs Through The Best Album by the Late Papa T Bob

Kapanlagi.com - In the 90s to the early 2000s, children's songs were able to compete with adult music. At the same time, there were also many successful child singers who sang children's songs, such as Joshua, Melisa, Trio Kwek-Kwek, Enno Lerian, and Agnes Monica.

However, over time, children's songs began to disappear. Furthermore, the singers have also grown up and there are no new child artists who have successfully replaced the previous singers.

Now, two young sibling singers named Nikhita Venkatraman and Nishita Venkatraman are ready to revive children's songs. They will release the album Album The Best by the Late Papa T Bob. An album that contains children's songs written by Erwanda Lukas, also known as Papa T Bob.

Nikhita and Nishita will sing Papa T Bob's songs again, such as Bolo-Bolo, Air, Du Di Dam, Si Komo Lewat Jalan Tol, Si Kodok, Katanya-Katanya, Semut-Semut Kecil, Nyamuk Nakal, and Ku Takut Mamaku Marah. What's interesting is that these songs are sung in English.

2. International Scene

There is a reason behind this, so that Papa T Bob's songs can be heard internationally. Considering that the album The Best by the Late Papa T Bob is released in digital format.

What's even more special is that the debut single on the album The Best by the Late Papa T Bob, Nikhita and Nishita also sing a song that has never been released by Papa T Bob titled Bebekku Sayang (My Lovely Ducks).

"Hopefully, the presence of the single Bebekku Sayang and the best songs by Papa T Bob can become an oasis amidst the scarcity of song production for Indonesian children," said Siti Wahyuni, the mother of Nikhita and Nishita, on Wednesday (28/4/2021).

3. Indian Descent

Nikhita and Nishita are twin girls from a mixed Indian-Indonesian parentage born in Jakarta, 6 years ago on September 11th. Their father, Venkatraman Soundrarajan, is from India, and their mother, Siti Wahyuni, is from Indonesia.

Since childhood, both of these children have been active, cheerful, and always show a keen interest and talent in music. They grew up listening to famous Bollywood and Western Pop songs, as well as other children's songs. In addition, they also learned to play the piano and sing at the age of 4.

4. Unique Voice

Siti Wahyuni said, besides singing, Nikhita and Nishita are also interested in everything, such as enjoying mathematics, the Indian language, and cooking.

"Nikhita Venkatraman and Nishita Venkatraman are indeed twin children, but their voices are very different. Nikhita has a unique and mature voice for her age, while Nishita maintains her childish voice when singing," said Siti Wahyuni.

The pandemic should not be a barrier for anyone to continue being productive. Besides that, make sure to always #RememberMother'sMessage. Wear a mask, wash your hands regularly, limit mobility, avoid crowds, and maintain distance. Hopefully, KLovers always stay healthy!
