While he enjoyed popularity in his days, his compositions were forgotten for over three centuries. His prodigious literary career earned him a place among the all-time greats of Telugu literature. He was one of the first few who opposed the social stigma towards the untouchable castes in his era, with his sankeertanas explaining that the relationship between God and human is the same irrespective of the latter's color, caste and financial status, in his songs " Brahmaṃ Okkatē Paraḥbrahmamokkatē" and " ē kulajuḍainanēmi evvaḍainanēmi". In his later keertanas, he espouses subjects such as morality, dharma and righteousness. His songs in the "Sringaara" genre worship Venkateswara by describing the romantic adventures of Venkateshwara and his consort Alamelu, while others describe the Bhakti of his devotees. His songs are classified into the Adhyaatma (spiritual) and Sringaara (romantic) sankeertanas genres. In the poems, he praises the deity, describes his love for him, argues and quarrels with the Lord, confesses the devotee's failures and apprehensions, and surrenders himself to Venkateshwara. Īnnamayya considered his compositions as floral offerings to Venkateswara. He is also the author of musical treatise called "Sankirthana lakshanamu".
