Honey Singh Mocks Badshah for Calling His ‘I’d Rather Make Babies’ Comment About Dua Lipa a Compliment

The Indian rap scene, often known for its braggadocio and larger-than-life personas, is no stranger to controversies. But this time, it's not about chart-topping hits or awards—it's a full-blown verbal face-off. Honey Singh mocks Badshah for calling his ‘I’d rather make babies’ comment about Dua Lipa a compliment, and fans can’t stop talking about it.

The Beginning of the Controversy

The controversy ignited when rapper Badshah, during an appearance on a podcast, made a bold and controversial statement about international pop star Dua Lipa. When asked about his admiration for the British-Albanian singer, he casually quipped, “I’d rather make babies with her than just take a picture.” This off-the-cuff remark immediately sparked backlash on social media, with many labeling it as disrespectful and objectifying.

Badshah later tried to downplay the situation, stating that his comments were meant as a compliment and not to be taken literally. However, this explanation didn’t sit well with many—including his longtime rival and fellow rapper Yo Yo Honey Singh.

Honey Singh Fires Back

Never one to hold back his opinions, Honey Singh mocks Badshah for calling his ‘I’d rather make babies’ comment about Dua Lipa a compliment in his recent Instagram live session. Without mentioning Badshah’s name directly at first, Honey Singh said:“You don’t call objectifying someone a compliment, bro. That’s just disrespect in disguise. If you can’t talk respectfully about a woman, especially a global artist like Dua Lipa, then just don’t talk.”

Soon after, he took a more direct shot, laughing and saying, “Making babies is a compliment? That’s not art, that’s immaturity dressed as swagger.”

This jab didn’t go unnoticed. Fans of both rappers quickly took to Twitter and Instagram to react, fueling an already heated rivalry between two of India's biggest hip-hop stars.

A History of Rivalry

While this latest incident has gone viral, the tension between Honey Singh and Badshah isn’t new. The two rappers have a complicated history. Once collaborators under the same music label, they eventually took different paths—Honey Singh with his aggressive party anthems and flashy persona, and Badshah with his radio-friendly hits and commercial collaborations.

Over the years, both have taken subtle and not-so-subtle digs at each other during interviews, live shows, and social media posts. However, this public mocking over a sensitive issue like objectification of women has raised the stakes.

Public and Industry Reactions

The public’s response has been sharply divided. While some have defended Badshah, claiming the comment was taken out of context, many have stood by Honey Singh’s criticism.

Popular Bollywood playback singer Neha Bhasin commented, “We live in a world where artists should know the weight of their words. I’m glad someone is calling out this behavior.”

Even rapper Raftaar, who usually stays out of such feuds, posted a cryptic Instagram story saying, “A real man knows when to speak and how to speak.”

Meanwhile, Badshah hasn’t responded directly to Honey Singh mocks Badshah for calling his ‘I’d rather make babies’ comment about Dua Lipa a compliment, but he did post a selfie with a caption that read, “Misunderstood. But never misquoted.” This only added fuel to the fire.

Respect vs. Swagger: The Debate in Indian Hip-Hop

This controversy has sparked a much-needed conversation in India’s hip-hop community. Is there a line between confidence and crudeness? And who draws it?

Honey Singh himself has not been free from controversies in the past. His earlier lyrics have often been criticized for their misogynistic undertones. However, he has recently made efforts to clean up his image and promote more respectful content.

This shift could explain why Honey Singh was quick to condemn Badshah’s statement. It seems to be part of a broader attempt to redefine his public persona—not just as a party rapper but as a responsible artist.

The Role of Global Artists Like Dua Lipa

What makes this situation even more delicate is the fact that Dua Lipa is an international icon who has been vocal about feminism, equality, and artistic expression. Comments like the one made by Badshah not only reflect poorly on him but also risk damaging how Indian artists are perceived globally.

In an era where collaborations between Bollywood and Western music stars are increasing, maintaining a respectful image becomes crucial. Such remarks, even when brushed off as jokes, can close doors to future partnerships.

Fans React: Team Badshah vs. Team Honey Singh

Social media has exploded with hashtags like #RespectDuaLipa, #HoneySinghSpeaksFacts, and #BadshahControversy. Twitter polls, Instagram reels, and YouTube reaction videos are all adding to the buzz.

A viral tweet read, “Honey Singh mocks Badshah for calling his ‘I’d rather make babies’ comment about Dua Lipa a compliment—and he’s absolutely right. Sometimes it takes one alpha to call out another.” Another user wrote, “Honey Singh trying to be woke is the irony of the decade.” Clearly, the fan base is split, and both rappers have found themselves in the eye of a digital storm.
