MTV Hustle 4 has sparked yet another controversy with the elimination of fan-favorite Little Bhatia, and Panther is not holding back his anger. In a candid statement, Panther expressed his disappointment with the show’s judges and their apparent bias, saying, “I don’t know what problem they have with UP Hip-Hop, bro. It’s Desi Hip-Hop, and we need to represent it equally.”
Little Bhatia, known for his raw talent and representation of Uttar Pradesh’s street culture had immense popularity with his unique style. However, his untimely elimination has left fans and artists like Panther questioning the show’s judgment process.
Panther further criticized the platform for favoring certain regions and artists, stating, “Desi Hip-Hop is about unity and diversity. If you don’t appreciate every part of it, you’re not doing justice to the culture.”
The reaction has ignited a wave of support for Little Bhatia on social media, with fans trending hashtags and calling for fairness in the competition. This incident has brought to light long-standing concerns about regional bias and favoritism in Indian hip-hop competitions.
