Best Hindi Playback Singers
66who is the best - Rafi or Kishore?
I used to side with Kishore but of late, I realised I hadn't heard much of Rafi.
Rafi has sung some of the most memorable songs ever.But Kishore Kumar's voice is a bit more versatile, he adjusts his voice to suit the actor.
I was trying to see a singer shining under all music directors. Of course, they all are great and have shined individually too.
I think most Raj Kapoor movies were composed by Shanker-Jaikishen and probably since most of Mukesh hits are of Raj Kapoor films, may be we will have to see his songs that are not of Shanker-Jaikishen. Only from Bobby, Raj Kapoor strated using, I think, Lakshmikant-Pyarelal and Mukesh was not singing after that period.
Rafi has sung for all - SD Burman, OP Nayyar, even Shankar-Jaikishen (Ye mera Prem patra padkar, tum naaraaz na hona - song from Raj Kapoor movie only) etc.
There is one song sung by both Kishore and Rafi and those who listen to it would invariably consider Kishore the better singer. Which is that song? They both sing the same song in the same movie.

thanks Irfan for providing your opinion..
KIsore is the king of voice.
Yes, I also believe the same. If Kishore Kumar is a school, Rafi sahab is a University. Infact, Kishore Kumar himself was a fan of Rafi sahab.
Kishore the great singer but Rafi is any beyond compliments. No word can prove the hight of rafi. I love you rafi sahab & no other singer can be compared to you.

kishor da was good singer.but only rafi sahab one and only singer who's every mood,sing the songs.like pop,rocks,bhajans,classical,dance songs,birthday,sufi,ghazal,qawwalis,and sing the songs his era every actors and every music directors...And rafi sahab sing the songs from kishor da film RAAGINI.
kishor kumar may have all bound , versatile and multitalented personality but if we compare singing ability of both i.e. KK and Rafi , Rafi is far superior than KK . Rafi has no match for his voice. From patriotic song, Bhajans , sad song to romantic , melodious song he has umcomparable. And one more he sung several famous qawallis like Na to karwan ki talash hai , to Pardah hai Pardah , Pal do pal ka sath and Hai agar dushman jamana to dar nahi , He sung all this immemorial song . Lately he also sung some memorable song for amitabh bachchan like John, Johny , Janardan tar tarram pum etc. KK rule for very short period after that rafi sab surely can earn crown again if Allah gave him some more time. I conclude by affirming again that Rafi sahab had divine voice.
Dear friends, I'm a big fan of Rafi Sahab. Rafi Sahab is a king of Indain Melody. Kishore da is best but Rafi Sahab is Everest. Khishore da is Galaxy but Rafi Sahab is Univerce. Rafi sahab is father of all singers. I love Md. Rafi.
Kishore is all of the best in history of Indian cinema md rafi,day.m kapoor are good but kishore is far from them. Kishore is voice of all hindustanies
Indai's Top Five Singers
1. Mohd. Rafi Sahab
2. Sonu Nigam
3. Kishore Kumar
4. Udit Narayan
5. Kumar Sanu
There are no of songs which Rafi saheb has sung and kishore
would not even dream of singing them. "OH" duniya ke Rakhwale", "Madhuban mein radhika " , Man taroat
hari darshan ko aaj are some of the few i have listed. for those who think kishore was better i will only remind them that Rafi sang a song for kishore on the screen because kishore could not sing that song .Music director shankar jaikishan had to ask rafi to sing that song picturised on Kishore kumar. Never the less I feel kishore too was a ver good singer but not even as half as Rafi saheb. SO much versatility Bhajans,Qwaalis , Patriotic songs , classical songs , sad songs , romantic songs. If you compare when he used to sing for Johny walker You could imagine it is johny walker singing , If he is singing for Shammi kapoor u would know this from his style, For guru dutt different style it was based on different personalities he would change or adapt that character. what a great singer I would rate him second only to god.
rafi kishor kumar kumar sanu udit narayan sonu nigam
nice one
there is only one son one rafi.hear his songs to believe it...no comparison.
rafi the greatest indian male singer followed by jesudas and SPB. Jesudas has the best voice among all
Kishore da is good singer but not be compare with Mohd Rafi sb,there is no one in bollywood be compare with Mohd Rafi sb.If Kishore Kumar is a school, Mohd Rafi sahab is a University. Infact, Kishore Kumar himself was a fan of Rafi sahab,but only Mohmd Rafi sahab one and only singer who's every mood,sing the songs.like pop,rocks,bhajans,classical,dance songs,birthday,sufi,ghazal,qawwalis
"Rafi Sahab sangit ki duniya ke bagwan hai." Sonu Nigam ne kaha hai ki Jo aadami Rafi Sahab ko pasand nahi karata wo kabhi sangit ko samaz nahi sakata.
Sonu Nigam, Udit Narayan, Shan, Mohammed Aziz aur Shabbir Kumar in logon ne Rafi Sahab ko idol mankar apana carriar suru kia hai. Aur o safhal bhi ho gaye hai.
Aur aap jo Rafi Sahab ki comparison Kishore Kumar se kar rahe hai o bilkul galat hai. Koun ki Kishore khud Rafi ke fan the.
Rafi Sahab ko 6 filmfare award mile aur kishore ko 8 lekin Rafi jab tak Jinda the tab tak Kishore 2 hi filmfare jit sake.
Rafi ki aavaj bhagwan ki aavaj thi. But kishore ki aawaj agar tulana ki jay to etani kuch khas nahi thi.
Thanks
Md Rafi is 100000000000000000 times better than Kishore..!!

Mohammed Rafi is great singer in Indain Film Industry.
When Rafi come in Indain Film Industry All singers was went to side.
Rafi Sahab Is always Top
My choice is Md Rafi.
Beacuase Rafi Sahab sung all type songs.
Kishore fails to sing in frount of Rafi Sahab.
Rafi Sahab aur Kishore Da dono great hai.
Kishore da ke gane rula dete hai aur Rafi sahab ke gane sine se lagate hai. Aap dono mahan hai. Mazu Kishore da ke songs ne bahut rulaya hai. Saccha dard hai unake aavaj main and Rafi sahab ka voice bhi bahut sweet hai.
Thanks
dono mahan singer the, aur aap sub in dono me compare kar rhe ho, in dono ko man se suno aur jano ki dono hi alag alag pratibha k dhani the......please koi kishor da ko bura na kahe aur koi rafi sahab ko kyoki aap fir sangeet ka apmaan kar rhe ho!!

Rafi saheb ne apna filmi cariyar 1941 mai ek panjabi film mai kiya tha film ka naam tha 'GUL BALOCH' gane ke bol the 'SORIYE HIRIYE NI TERI YAAD NA AANA SATAYA' is film ko karne ke bad rafi saheb 1944 mumbai aagaye mumbai mai unhone kai gane gaye unhone 2 film mai acting bhi ki lekin wo acting nahi karna chahte the kuch saalo bad 1948 unki mulakat music director NOUSHAD SAHEB se hui noushad saheb rafi saheb ko film MELA mai breck diya jo super hit hui is ke bad rafi khuda ki dua se aage badte rahe aur 1980 31 july ko unka safer khatm ho gaya, aur hum jaise logo par apna saya chode gaye.........!
