Honey Singh On Allegations Of Making Misogynistic Songs: "I've Grown Up Hearing All This"

Yo Yo Honey Singh has fans across the globe. The rapper has delivered numerous hits, including Angreji Beat , Brown Rang , Kalaastar and many more. However, the star has often faced criticism for his lyrics, which have been labelled objectionable and misogynistic.

Addressing these allegations, Honey Singh stated that he does not objectify women. In an interview with The Times of India , the rapper said, "I don't give a s*** but I think I should answer this. Gulzar sahab likh rahe hain.

'Beedi jalaile jigar se piya, jigar mein badi aag hai', jigar kahan hota hai aurat ka? This is misogynistic for me. 'Zuban pe laga namak ishq ka', why is he talking about the tongue of a woman..

.main yeh sab sunke bada hua hoon. [Gulzar Sahab is writing, ‘ Beedi jalaile jigar se piya, jigar mein badi aag hai ,' but where is a woman's ‘ jigar ' (heart)? To me, this feels misogynistic.

In another song, he says, ‘ Zuban pe laga namak ishq ka ,' and again, why is he talking about a woman's tongue? I've grown up hearing all this.” Honey Singh continued, “ Sirf main hi kyun galat hoon? Main pehle bolta nahi tha, aaj bol raha hoon yeh baatein. Main pehle jawab nahi deta tha toh log kehte thay easy target hai, issi ke baare mein bolo.

Iski na koi PR hai nahi jo iski image clean karegi, yeh leta rahega. [Why am I the only one who is wrong? I did not speak up before, but today I am addressing these things. Earlier, I never responded, so people thought I was an easy target and would say anything.
