In a moment that had the Desi Hip-Hop (DHH) community buzzing, Raftaar, one of the most influential figures in the Indian rap scene, has finally addressed the ongoing debate between Rohan Cariappa and MTV Hustle. Speaking with clarity and conviction, Raftaar stated, “Rohan Cariappa is a very important pillar of DHH, and the result will be in favor of DHH.”
This statement comes amid rising tensions within the DHH community regarding creative integrity, representation, and the direction of platforms like MTV Hustle. Cariappa, a revered figure in the hip-hop ecosystem for his analytical content and consistent advocacy for underground rap, has been at the center of this discourse.

Raftaar’s words highlight his belief in unity and the importance of respecting those who contribute significantly to the culture. Calling Cariappa a “pillar” underscores his invaluable role in promoting and uplifting Indian hip-hop, while his assurance that the result will favor DHH reinforces his dedication to keeping the culture authentic and thriving.
The community is now watching closely as this matter unfolds, with fans and artists alike standing in solidarity with Cariappa. Raftaar’s endorsement adds significant weight to the conversation, proving once again why he remains a trusted voice in the movement.
