Grammy -winning Hatian rapper Wyclef has worked with a whole host of big American singers.

Aadesh informs, "Wyclef has worked with the likes of Norah Jones and Shakira. He has also done songs with Michael Jackson including Billy jean. While I'm partnering him in one track, I'm arranging several other tracks for him.'

The Wyclef track with Aadesh is called 'Immigration'.

"Things are really moving fast here. I want to introduce the Indian dhol worldwide. I've used 60 dhols for Wyclef's albums, along with as many violins."
