Badshah states, “Grateful and blessed. This year has started on an electrifying note and I’m appreciative that I’m getting to do everything that I’m truly passionate about. This tour is about the ability to conquer your dreams, break stereotypes and transcend boundaries. See you in the arenas soon for one of my most experimental live show experiences till date.”
Recently, Badshah grabbed headlines for becoming the first-ever Indian hip-hop artist to headline the mainstage of UNTOLD, which is ranked as the world’s #6 music festival and Europe’s #3 music festival by DJ Mag.
The musician recently released a new track, titled Class, for series Showtime, featuring actor Emraan Hashmi. The song features actor Mouni Roy, who is collaborating with the rapper for the first time. Talking about the song, Badshah said, “When I was approached to write a rap song for ‘Showtime’, I agreed because of my love for the movie industry… What I was looking forward to with this song was working with Mouni as it was my first collaboration with her, and we had a blast shooting the song. She is not only a great actor, but an effortless dancer too, who perfectly added the glam factor to the song and enhanced it.”
