MS Subbulakshmi's music in UN and so called tribute now....

Ever since I came to know that ARR will perform in UN to remember MSS, I was thinking only through such events he can get a chance to get a name as only second Indian to perform in UN assembly hall after MSS.
The very fact that talking of MSS to ARR ITSELF IS THE biggest blunder of degradation that has happened to carnatic music world. (Only music I liked in ARR was Roja film, after that he became a tool in cultural degradation through music, but well supported by degraded masses to love such noise and music)

people questioning the validity of the whole show. How exactly does Rahman represent MSS or her music genre?
Does anyone talk of the composer of Maithreem Bhajatha? Kanchi MahaSwamigal composed it for the special occasion when MSS was invited to represent Indian classical music.
True to that, when I google further, I came across this article which proves that....

She would have cried “Jai ho!” if, instead of incurring the astronomical costs of transporting and hosting 40 musicians from India, the show had been held in Chennai, and the proceeds donated to her favourite charities -- healthcare and education.
In her 1966 UN concert, MS advocated friendship among nations and world peace, with an anthem echoing values from the Upanishad- damyata (austerity), datta (charity), dayadhvam (compassion), qualities she practised in her own life.
The New York Times declared, “Subbulakshmi’s vocal communication transcends words.”
I wonder anyone who understands these lines or in carnatic music term called the Bhaava of singing, music soaked with Bhakthi and Bhakthi alone which NONE seems to have after MS Subbulakshmi and yet each want to claim they are paying tributes to MSS...காலத்தின் கோலம் என்பதா அல்லது கலியின் காலடியில் கர்நாடக சங்கீதத்தின் நிலை என்பதா?
பள்ளிப் பருவத்தில் வந்தே மாதரம் பாட்டைப் பற்றி படித்தது ஞாபகம் வருகிறது. பாரம் பாரிய கர்நாடக சங்கீதத்தில் பாடிய ''வந்தே மாதரம்'' பாடலை ரஹ்மானின் modern கத்தலையும் ஒரு புத்தகத்தில் பாட்டிக்கள்(grandmas) வருத்தத்துடன் இப்படிப் பண்ணறாங்களே என்று துக்கப் பட்டார்கள். இன்று கத்தல்களை சங்கீதம் என்று கத்துகிறார்கள்.... மகாகவி பாரதியின் வரிகள் ஞாபகம் வருகிறது ...
நண்ணிய பெருங்கலைகள்-பத்து நாலாயிரங் கோடி நயந்துநின் ற புண்ணிய நாட்டினிலே-இவர் பொறியற்ற விலங்குகள் போலவாழ் வார்
