Rapper Emiway Bantai has reportedly received a death threat after releasing a tribute song for Sidhu Moosewala on May 25, 2025. The artist, known for his independent rap career, shared the track to honor Moosewala’s legacy, but the heartfelt gesture was met with serious danger.
Shortly after the song went live, an anonymous message was sent to Emiway’s management team, demanding ₹1 crore. The threat allegedly came from Goldy Brar, a gangster linked to the Lawrence Bishnoi network—the same group associated with Moosewala’s tragic death in 2022. The message warned of “serious consequences” if the rapper didn’t comply within 24 hours.

According to law enforcement, the timing of the threat—just one day after the tribute’s release—suggests a coordinated attempt to intimidate the artist. The police are also exploring connections between this incident and past threats against other Indian musicians.
