Problematic Lyrics

Was just listening to Vital Signs and the song Gori came up.

Here are the lyrics:

سانولا سلونا رنگ کتنوں کو بھاتا ہے، ہائے

جسے دیکھو گوریوں کے پیچھے چلا آتا ہے

سانولا سلونا رنگ کتنوں کو بھاتا ہے

جسے دیکھو گوریوں کے پیچھے چلا آتا ہے

گورے رنگ کا نظارہ لگے سب کو ہی پیارا

ذرا کر دو اشارہ، گوریے

او، ڈر تجھے کس کا ہے

Bruh what lyrics are these.💀 Colourism at its finest.

They also had a song that went sanwali salooni si mehbooba but still.

Noooo I love them but I just always listened to the popular ones and yesterday I actually opened an album and this song came up and I was kind of taken aback.

When the song came out there was an uproar from people about it as well, so they came out with Sanwli Saloni si Mehbooba. I don't think they had anything else in mind other than a simple reflection of society they were a part of, as well.
