The Indian hip-hop landscape has just witnessed a seismic moment. Emiway Bantai, one of the genre’s most influential voices, has released a stirring tribute to the late Punjabi icon Sidhu Moosewala. Titled “Tribute to Sidhu Moosewala”, the track premiered on May 25 at 8 PM IST, accompanied by an evocative official music video that’s already setting social media ablaze.
Produced by Tony James and expertly mixed and mastered by tejmixedit, the track stands as a sincere homage to Moosewala’s legacy. Emiway masterfully weaves emotional storytelling with authentic hip-hop energy, paying his respects not only through lyrical depth but also by incorporating vocal samples from Sidhu’s iconic track “Dogar.” This sonic nod bridges regional and cultural lines, offering Moosewala’s essence to a broader pan-Indian audience.
The music video, directed by Dinesu with associate director Thrector from Bantai Studio, visually echoes the raw emotion of the song. Its imagery, tone, and pacing deliver a heartfelt visual narrative that resonates deeply with both Moosewala’s and Emiway’s fanbases.
This release is more than just a song—it’s a moment. Emiway had earlier hinted at his desire to honor the legacy of Moosewala, and this tribute solidifies that intention. Fans have responded with overwhelming positivity, flooding comment sections with praise and memories, turning the track into a trending topic across platforms.
Notably, the tribute arrives just weeks ahead of Sidhu Moosewala’s posthumous EP, slated for release on June 11. This timing positions Emiway’s track as a powerful warm-up, amplifying anticipation for the forthcoming project and keeping Moosewala’s memory alive in the cultural conversation.
