Ranveer Singh made waves with his brilliant performance as a rapper from the streets of Mumbai in the cult hit film Gully Boy. While his acting definitely pulled people to the theatres, Ranveer is certain that young hip/hop & rap artist, Spitfire, is a large part of the reason everybody tuned into Gully Boy. Nitin Mishra AKA Spitfire was dubbed as a prodigy for the incredible lyrics of ‘Asli Hip Hop’ which became a rage of the nation. He is being managed by Ranveer’s independent record label IncInk.
“Nitin AKA Spitfire is a lyrical prodigy. He is a large part of the reason everybody tuned into Gully Boy during its first promo when he wrote 'Asli Hip Hop'. He is the one who wrote Murad’s part in all of the rap battles. When his matchless raw talent and pure passion revealed itself to me, it became a large part of the reason I even wanted to participate in the business in the first place,” says Ranveer, who has been blown over by Spitfire’s new EP titled 'Partein' which released today.
He adds, “This new EP features one of my favourite tracks so far, Zalzala (a track from the EP). When I am in the gym it gets me hyped and pumped up. When I hear Sangeet and Afterparty (other tracks from the EP) they transport me into an elevated spiritual space and put me in a deep, thoughtful, reflective frame of mind. This EP speaks of Nitin’s versatility, his fearlessness, and his beautiful spirit. 'Partein' is a demonstration of skill and maturity. Tune in and hear your heart out. I can't wait for his next evolution.”
Ranveer has always maintained that he is looking to unearth the future superstars of the music scene in India and champion indigenous and new age music that celebrates the culture, diversity, and reality of our country. IncInk is his passion project that aims to give a platform to raw talents with no connection in the music industry, from across the country, to express their skills and present their raw talent to global audiences.
The superstar, who has founded IncInk along with Navzar Eranee, is currently managing four outstanding artistes like Kaam Bhari, Spitfire, SlowCheeta, and Devil The Rhymer. His vision for IncInk is extremely ambitious because it is essentially his passion project that aims to give a platform to raw talents from across the country.
