'Voodoo' marks the first proper collaboration between Badshah and Latinx icon, J Balvin

Indian singer, rapper, producer, entrepreneur and all-around superstar Badshah links with Latinx global superstar, music icon and entrepreneur, J Balvin, for international hit “Voodoo,” out today via Capitol Records. A trilingual anthem — Hindi, Spanish, and English — produced by top hit making producer/ artist Tainy (who has churned out hits with Bad Bunny, Shawn Mendes, Camila Cabello, Anuel, Rosalía, Daddy Yankee to name a few), 'Voodoo' is a cautionary tale of lust and magic. The song’s supernatural theme is reflected in the striking, effects-filled video. 'Voodoo' marks the first proper collaboration between Badshah and Latinx icon, J Balvin. “J Balvin is like an idol to me,” says Badshah. “He's been doing what I have been trying to do in my own space, and the way he's made a way for himself despite the language, despite the odds, really inspired me.” Over eerie synths and swinging dembow drums, Badshah and J Balvin trade verses about being spellbound by a woman. An alluring mosaic of international influences and otherworldly references, 'Voodoo' captures the sultriness, danger, and desperation of being lovestruck. The single’s eerie aesthetic is matched by the music video, which features sharp choreography and an intricate, candle-lit ceremony invoking spirits. “One of the many reasons I was drawn to creating music is because it’s universal. It connects people despite language barriers,” said J Balvin. “Badshah and Tainy are tremendous artists, and this collaboration is just another example of how we’re able to unite people of different cultures to find common ground and vibe together.” “Voodoo” follows Badshah’s latest EP Retropanda - Part 1, that released last month. The four-track set includes smash hits “Tabahi” and “Jugnu,” which thus far have accrued over 290 million combined views on YouTube and over 47 million Spotify streams. Badshah’s 2021 viral hit 'Bachpan Ka Pyaar' has over 415M Views on YouTube in just about 8 Months.
