Raftaar Nucleya and Raja Kumari were the judges. Gaelyn Mendonca hosted the show, which aired on MTV India and is now available on Voot. In Season 1, 40 auditionees were chosen from online registrations for studio auditions, of which only 15 rappers were chosen to compete against each other. Rappers were evaluated based on their writing and rapping style and overall performance. M-ZEE-BELLA was declared the winner on October 13, 2019 and EPR was named the runner-up of MTV Hustle Season 1
MTV Hustle Season 2 premiered on September 3, 2022, with Baadshah serving as Judge, Dino James, Dee, MC King, and EPR serving as Squad Boss. Krissann Barretto hosted the show, which aired on MTV India and is now available on Voot. In MTV Hustle Season 2 through Voot Online Auditions, 14 contestants were selected. The four Squad Bosses trained the contestants and judged them based on their talent, performance, meter technique, musicality, and storytelling after Badshah chose which squad contestants to place in each squad. Through open voting on the Voot, viewers also had the chance to participate in the quest to support their favourite performer.
Badshah, now a prominent rapper, faced significant struggles early in his career. Initially, he was on track to become an IAS officer, but he pursued rapping despite its unconventional status and his family’s concerns.
In a recent Pinkvilla interview, Badshah revealed that he struggled with financial hardships, including going without money and sleeping on the ground. Despite these challenges, he remained passionate about rapping, even though it took time to convince his parents of his chosen path. His parents were initially confused and skeptical, as rapping was unfamiliar and lacked a clear career precedent.
Badshah recounted how his parents were surprised when he bought a high-end vehicle with money earned from music, which led his father to acknowledge the potential of his career. It took Badshah five years to persuade his parents of his commitment to music. They were initially worried about the lack of a standard for Hindi rap and feared he might be engaging in negative behaviors. Despite these concerns, Badshah eventually achieved success and financial stability in his music career.

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.

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.
Recently, Honey Singh (also known as Yo Yo Honey Singh) and Badshah have been at the center of a public feud. The controversy began when Honey Singh made some comments about Badshah that seemed to cast a shadow over Badshah’s career. In response to questions about his feelings towards Badshah, Honey Singh reportedly expressed a critical view, claiming that Badshah apparently belongs to an affluent family, and his father had come to Honey Singh asking for help in crating music for Badshah’s English song.
Badshah’s total estimated net worth is $5.19 million, which is equivalent to Rs. 41.3 crore INR in Indian currency. Badshah’s monthly income is 50 lakhs or more. Aside from that, his annual income is estimated to be around 10.5 crore INR. He is a well-known businessman as well and has been developing a brand that now includes clothing, hospitality, television, and content production. In recent years, he has appeared on the Forbes India Celebrity list several times. Concerts, music sales, films/TV production and his brand are the main sources of his income.
