Rapper Hitzone Alleges Prince Narula Stole His Money Over ‘Bang Bang’ Collaboration

When the beat drops, the drama sometimes follows. That’s exactly what happened when Indian rapper Hitzone went public with a grievance against reality‑TV darling Prince Narula. The controversy centers on their 2024 collaboration, a high‑energy single titled “Bang Bang,” which quickly became a club favourite.

According to Hitzone, Narula’s team promised a split of the song’s streaming revenue and performance royalties, but the money never showed up in his account. “I’ve been patient, I’ve sent emails, I’ve called,” Hitzone wrote in an Instagram caption on Tuesday, “but the payments keep getting stalled.” He didn’t stop there – the rapper also uploaded a series of voice‑note recordings allegedly captured from conversations with Narula’s manager. In the clips, a calm voice can be heard saying, “We’ll sort it out next month,” only for the conversation to fade out without any follow‑up.

The rapper’s fans rallied quickly, sharing the audio snippets and demanding transparency. Many wrote that such behind‑the‑scenes money fights are sadly common in India’s growing rap scene, where contracts are often informal and artists rely heavily on trust.

Prince Narula, who rose to fame through reality shows like Big Boss Hindi and MTV Roadies, has not yet responded publicly. His legal representative, however, issued a brief statement to the press saying, “We are aware of the allegations and are reviewing the matter. Any claim will be addressed through the appropriate legal channels.”

Industry insiders note that the dispute could also involve publishing rights, which can be a tangled web when a rapper and a TV personality team up. If the voice notes are authentic, they could be a game‑changer in any potential arbitration, but authenticity is yet to be verified.

For now, Hitzone continues to push for what he describes as “fair compensation.” He’s urged other artists to keep records of every agreement, no matter how informal it might seem at the moment. “It’s not about the money alone,” he added, “it’s about respect for the craft.”

The episode serves as a reminder that the glitz of a chart‑topping single often hides the grind behind the scenes. Whether the two will ever settle their differences, or if the case will head to court, remains to be seen. One thing is certain: fans will be listening closely to the next verse – both on the track and in the story that’s still unfolding.
