"I Might Get Blacklisted": Honey Singh Reveals YouTuber Was Offered Money To Trash His New Album
Rap superstar Honey Singh has dropped a bombshell, revealing a "paid hate campaign" against his new album. A YouTuber was allegedly offered money to spread hate and call his songs "bad."
In a bombshell exposé that is sending shockwaves through the Indian music industry, rap superstar Honey Singh has revealed the existence of a sinister “paid hate campaign” being run against his new album, 51 Glorious Days. The shocking allegation came to light after a YouTuber bravely claimed they were offered money to spread negative reviews, prompting Honey Singh to share the clip and confirm the unethical practices.
The controversy erupted when an unnamed YouTuber, in a candid livestream, revealed a disturbing offer they had received. “They told me, ‘Brother, take the money. You have to spread hate for this album. You have to say it’s bad. Say that all the songs are skippable, not a single one is good. You have to make a video like this. Take the money,’” the YouTuber recounted.
Honey Singh, whose new album 51 Glorious Days recently dropped, wasted no time in amplifying the revelation. He shared the YouTuber’s clip on his Instagram story, effectively confirming the allegations and putting his own career on the line.
“I am telling you something. This is a very honest thing. I might get blacklisted for this. Maybe people will tell me not to say anything to him in the future,” Honey Singh stated, his words carrying the weight of a man risking his standing in the industry to expose a dark truth. “I won’t take anyone’s name. A lot of people are running a hate campaign for this album, 51 Glorious Days.”
This Honey Singh negative PR scandal pulls back the curtain on the cutthroat world of the music business, where artists are not just competing for airplay, but fighting against orchestrated smear campaigns. The idea that a YouTuber would be offered money to trash an album is a chilling indictment of the industry’s ethical standards.
“This kind of music industry sabotage is more common than people realize,” a music industry insider, who wished to remain anonymous, told DeetsDaily. “When an artist is making a comeback, or a new album is released, rivals or disgruntled parties will often resort to these tactics to undermine their success. It’s dirty, but it happens.”
The incident also raises serious questions about the integrity of music reviews and the ethics of influencer marketing. If YouTubers are being paid to spread hate, how can audiences trust any review? This paid hate campaign not only damages the targeted artist but also erodes trust in the entire creator ecosystem.
Honey Singh’s brave decision to expose this alleged campaign, despite the personal risk of being “blacklisted,” has been met with an outpouring of support from fans who are tired of the industry’s underhanded tactics. Many are calling for a full investigation into the matter.
As the controversy unfolds, the music world is left to wonder: who is behind this alleged campaign? And how many other artists have been victims of similar sabotage? Honey Singh has bravely shone a light into a dark corner of the industry, and the repercussions could be far-reaching.
