This is what I would call 'alternative' music. It has several messages.
First, even though the singing isn't considered musically good, it is an expression of inner joy that comes out. So for those who might love to sing but are embarrassed because they can't carry a tune, there should be no ban on expressing oneself and feeling good.

Secondly, this song was created from a beat - and the beat creates the music from within itself. This is different than trying to write a melody.

Third, the vibration of the song has a sort of meditative vibration to it - making it feel like a mix between western music and Indian bhajan (devotional songs).

Fourth, it is said that by saying the name of God, one feels themselves coming closer to God. this song has many different names of Lord Krishna.

Fifth, there is great spiritual joy in singing this song, and it is hoped that, overlooking the singing quality, listeners will feel the spiritual joy and be uplifted by the joyous rhythm.

So hopefully you will enjoy this song from the feeling level and not a technical one.
