Mumbai: Mumbai: American rapper Saweetie has spoken about her collaboration with Diljit Dosanjh, the superstar of Punjabi music. The two collaborated on the song “Khutti.”
Saweetie recently shared her experience working with Diljit on the song’s recording while appearing on the podcast Audacy Music.
“They were teaching me when I was in the studio with Diljit,” she remarked.
Further, she revealed that she prefers an organic process, so she didn’t send her verses before the recording.
She said about the process: “I love working that way. I feel like that’s how you get the most out of the art because I feel like he’s doing his best. I’m doing my best. We have our team around. They’re really supportive. And it’s probably like one of my favourite studio experiences.”
She further mentioned: “Great energy all around. They were teaching me how to say certain words. I learned how to say ‘Khutti’. It can mean several things. It means being hot, that man. It’s just like, depending on how you use it, that’s what it means. I don’t think I would have got that real feedback, that real-time feedback, if we were sending records back and forth to each other.”
Meanwhile, Diljit has been having a dream run professionally. His recently released film, Jatt & Juliet 3, in which he stars opposite another Punjabi superstar, Neeru Bajwa, breached the Rs 100 crore mark at the global box office, making it the highest-grossing Punjabi film.
Earlier, he made Ed Sheeran sing in Punjabi during the latter’s India leg of his tour in Mumbai. Recently, he also had a sold-out Dil-luminati Tour spanning the United States and Canada. His recent appearance on ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’ solidified his international stature.
