Guru Randhawa on new song 'SIX': 'I wanted to blend hip-hop culture with our native Punjabi Vibe'
Mumbai, July 15
Singer Guru Randhawa has opened up about his latest track "SIX." He revealed the creative vision behind the song and his attempt to bring together hip-hop culture with authentic Punjabi influences.
The singer shared that while he has always been drawn to hip-hop, he wanted to create a sound that reflects his roots and celebrates the energy of Punjabi music in a fresh way. Speaking about the track, Guru shared in a statement, "I've always loved hip-hop culture, but I wanted to blend it authentically with our native Punjabi vibe. 'SIX' is about hitting it out of the park. It's about the grind, the focus, and the mindset it takes to stay at the top. Having Kiran Bajwa back on a track with me made this sonic shift feel natural. We've built a specific musical trust, and this track represents the next step in our collaborative journey."
His long-term creative collaborator, Kiran Bajwa, added, "When Guru Randhawa and I first started working on the concept for 'SIX,' we knew we wanted something that felt both gritty and triumphant. Our past collaborations were about lifestyle and energy, but this one is about pure drive. It's a side of Guru his fans haven't seen before and it's meant for anyone out there who is winning."
Guru Randhawa and Kiran Bajwa have previously created a wave in the music industry with their chart-topping collaborations, including the hit track 'Sirra' from the critically acclaimed album Without Prejudice and the popular single 'SHKINI.'
"SIX" is a powerful anthem celebrating victory, determination, resilience, and self-confidence. The track captures the realities of ambition and the grind behind achievement, encouraging listeners to ignore distractions, overcome challenges, and stay focused on their goals.
The foot-tapping number also served as his official foray into the world of hip-hop. 'SIX' released via Warner Music India is now available worldwide on all major streaming platforms.

I appreciate the effort to blend cultures, but honestly, I miss his older romantic tracks. This hip-hop angle feels a bit forced. Hope the song still has that desi soul.
Guru and Kiran Bajwa are a deadly combo! "SHKINI" was on loop for months. Excited for this new track — the description about 'grind and mindset' sounds inspiring. Let's see if it lives up to the hype! 💪🎶
As someone who loves both hip-hop and Punjabi beats, this is exciting! It's great to see Indian artists pushing boundaries. Hope the lyrics are meaningful too, not just about winning but real struggles behind it.
Guru Randhawa is a talented guy, but this 'blending hip-hop with Punjabi' thing has been done before by many artists. Hope his version brings something fresh. Will give it a listen before judging. 🤔
Love seeing Punjabi artists go global! "SIX" sounds like a celebration of hard work — very relatable for anyone chasing dreams. Already streaming it! 🎧✨
Honestly, Guru's music has become repetitive lately. Same beats
