Singer-songwriter and rapper King has collaborated with iconic voices like Kumar Sanu, Shaan, Shreya Ghoshal, Sunidhi Chauhan, and Rekha Bharadwaj for his latest album, Raja Hindustani.
The album draws inspiration from the 1996 film of the same name and aims to create a timeless body of work.
King shares that recording with Kumar Sanu was a core memory for him, as the legendary singer's pure and instinctive approach to music reminded him why he fell in love with music in the first place.
The collaborations were not mapped out in advance, and the songs evolved into something more once the singers stepped into the recording booth.
King praises the female vocalists on the album, saying Rekha Bharadwaj brought depth and poetry to the songs, while Sunidhi Chauhan brought fearless energy and power.
He also praises Shreya Ghoshal's control and emotional intelligence, saying she elevated the simplest lines and added subtle improvisations that made the songs richer and more alive.
King believes creative differences are a gift, as they bring new perspectives and ideas to the table, and he was humbled by the experience of working with these music legends.
