Badshah’s Struggles

Badshah’s Struggles

Badshah's swagger will make you go pagal with all of his raps. Some of his chartbusters include Kar Gayi Chull DJ Waley Babu The Wakhra Swag and many more. In addition he made his Bollywood debut with Khandaani Shafakhana. The Badshah we know today did not inherit a golden spoon; the struggle uphill was a real battle. He's had his fair share of ups and downs. His choice of career as a rapper was a no-go because it did not fit the typical career standards.

But if he wasn't a rapper he was on his way to becoming an IAS officer. However despite going without money for days and even sleeping on the ground Badshah said he had enjoyed every aspect of his journey so far. In a recent interview with Pinkvilla Badshah discussed his difficult times and confessed that he had always wanted to be a rapper. It was difficult for him to tell his parents because rapping was an uncharted territory and an unconventional career.

But despite the family's reaction he continued to work hard toward his goal. Badshah was asked how long it took him to realise that rapping was his hobby rather than a traditional career during an interview with Pinkvilla. He retorted that although it took him some time he was wise in his approach. The singer mentioned that when he told his parents he wanted to become a rapper they had no idea what that even meant. He therefore didn't bother to explain them and kept his head down while continuing to work study and even work a few jobs while also pursuing his passion for music on the side. Badshah recalled how his parents were shocked when he once parked a high-end vehicle outside of his home. He explained that he bought the car by performing music when they questioned how he could afford it. Then according to him his father realised that his career might generate income for his son.

Badshah claimed that his father was unaware of his musical career in the past because it didn't bother him if his son appeared on television. Rapping is not a typical profession so his father was more concerned with whether he was earning enough money to support himself. According to Badshah it took him five years to tell and persuade his parents that he wanted to pursue music. He claimed that they had misgivings because he was one of the first rappers to perform in Hindi and there was no precedent or standard.

Sonu Nigam is a good example to use if someone wants to become a singer the artist said but he was unable to do so because no one existed at the time. He said that it greatly bothered his parents because they were worried about whether their child was using drugs or engaging in other bad behaviour. However everything worked out in the end and he began making a good income.

Badshah Controversies

Case of fake views on the song Pagal (2019)

His 2019 song 'Paagal' set the record for the most watched YouTube video in a single day with 74.8 million views in just one day. Due to his low number of likes in the first 24 hours BTS fans claimed that the artist had purchased the views to break the record but YouTube has not confirmed whether the views are real or fake. The song was also absent from the week's 100-position Global Top Music Videos chart. Badshah acknowledged that his record company Sony Music India had purchased paid Google Ads but denied that they were fake views. 

The reason YouTube refused to recognize the song was that Badshah's record company Sony Music India had paid for Google and YouTube advertisements that either embedded the video or pointed fans in its direction. However it has come to light that this is a widespread practice in the music industry worldwide and that record labels for previous record holders like Ariana Grande and Blackpink have used similar tactics in the past. Some of the YouTube 24-hour viewership records have been questioned as a result of this.

Plagiarism in the lyrics of the song Genda Phool (2020)

In 2020 Sony Music India released his song 'Genda Phool.' 'Boro Loker Biti Lo ' a Bengali folk song was mixed in. A Bengali artist named Ratan Kahar claimed to be the song's original author and composer. Although Badshah later claimed that it was a traditional Baul folk song that wasn't copyrighted because folk music isn't covered by copyright laws and is therefore in the public domain. Rapper Badshah gained attention in April for the song's credit row 'Genda Phool ' which featured Jacqueline Fernandez.

Ratan Kahar's name is not mentioned in the song credit of Badshah's remake of the song 'Genda Phool ' which was released on March 25 and quickly became one of the top trends on YouTube. Kahar the original song's composer had expressed dissatisfaction with the reimagined version. After that Badshah got in touch with the musician and even provided him with financial assistance by depositing Rs 5 lakh into his account. Even more he assured Kahar that he would come to his home in Suri Birbhum West Bengal.
