The ongoing rivalry between Yo Yo Honey Singh and _ is back in the spotlight. The two Indian rappers, who were once part of the group Mafia Mundeer, came at odds after Badshah left the group in 2009, claming that Honey Singh was more focused on his solo career and not giving credit to others.
On October 17, Honey Singh posted a promo video on Instagram stories from Indian Idol season 15, where Badshah showed off his freestyle rap skill with Vishal Dadlani and Shreya Ghoshal.
Bashah confidently sang, “Dilli ka golgappa, Mumbai se bhelpuri, Chandigarh ki lassi ko gadd gadd pi jaate hai.”
Singh couldn’t resist adding his own comment, joking, “Aise lyrics likhwane hai bass taqdeer ban jayegi meri 😂.”
The two rappers parted ways in 2009 because of a mysterious feud. Badshah made digs at Singh in his songs, which made things worse. Even though Honey faced a health problem that paused his career, he seems to still hold onto their past issues.
In a recent interview with The Lallantop, host Saurabh Dwivedi asked, “Was Badshah a part of Mafia Mundeer?”
Honey replied, “No, he is not a talent which is picked up from the street, he is a son of a high ranking officer, who already has money and doesn’t need a small platform like Mafia Mundeer.”
The host again asked, “Are the differences still not resolved between the two of you?”
“You get upset with your loved ones, not with a client, he was just a client for me”, Singh replied.
“I wish him best of luck.”
