MTV Hustle is back with a brand new season. Raftaar and Ikka, two of the most popular Indian rappers, are currently serving as judges for India’s biggest rap reality show, MTV Hustle Season 4. Known for their rap talent and dynamic personalities, the two recently had a candid chat with Pinkvilla and discussed the evolving rapping culture. During the conversation, Raftaar also joked about not being spotted at the airport.

The popular rapper said, "Meri koi PR agency hai nahi. Main bahut flight leta hoon par main airport pe spot bhi nahi hota unless mere aas paas koi aur dikh gaya toh. Uske bina bhi duniya hai na (I don't have any PR agency. I take many flights but I am not even spotted at the airport unless some other celeb is with me. The world exists even without it)."

Raftaar added, "Travel karna thodi chhodh dunga agar yeh nahi honge toh. Aapne apne liye oxygen bana li hai ki jab tak woh woh mere ko validation nahi dete tab tak main, main nahi hun. Main tabhi tha jab aap mereko nahi jaante the aur main, main aaj bhi hun jab aap mujhe jaante ho. Main nahi badlunga (I will not stop traveling if this does not happen. You have created this oxygen for yourself that, until they validate you, you are not yourself. I was the same when you did not know me, and I am still the same when you know me. I will not change)."
