Amidst a scathing rap feud, former Mafia Mundeer affiliates and Indian rap moguls Badshah and Yo Yo Honey Singh have locked horns.
The iconic “Get Up Jawani” rappers, who continue to issue fierce statements over perhaps the longest-running beef in Indian rap history, have premiered massive “Morni” and “Jatt Mehekma” teasers within 24 hours.
While “Morni” marks the Chandigarh-bred emcee’s first solo single since releasing his massive rap LP “Ek Tha Raja”, “Jatt Mehkma” serves as the fourth visual treatment from the “Accounts” rapper’s top-tier LP “Glory”.
Besides the forthcoming “Jatt Mehkma” cut, directed by the “Gaddi Shookdi” rapper himself and set to release on November 8th, Yo Yo has shared the zany “High On Me” music video featuring breakthrough R&B singer Talwiinder, “Bonita” and “Millionaire” from his studio album.

Last month, Badshah surpassed revered global rapstars Jay-Z, Kanye West, Lil Baby, Future, Playboi Carti, Lil Uzi Vert, 50 Cent and A$ap Rocky on Spotify’s list of most followed rap artists worldwide.
With the two top-tier rappers premiering music at the highest level, India’s burgeoning rap scene is divided into two strong factions marked by ardent Badshah and Yo Yo Honey Singh supporters.
In other news, Indian emcee AP Dhillon has premiered the third music video in support of his massive EP “The Brownprint”.
Titled “Bora Bora”, the cut is directed by coveted filmmaker Michelle Parker (Rubi Rose, Wiz Khalifa, Don Toliver, Cardi B, Young Thug, Rich Gang) and features Nigerian pop singer Ayra Starr.
The “After Midnight” and “Old Money” follow-up arrives ahead of the “Problems Over Peace” rapper’s forthcoming India tour. Watch it below.
