Actor and reality TV star Prince Narula has found himself at the centre of a fresh controversy after rapper Hitzone accused him of failing to clear his dues. Hitzone alleged that despite writing and working on two songs featuring Prince, he was never paid for
his contribution. The rapper took to social media to level the allegations and shared purported voice notes as evidence, claiming that Prince repeatedly avoided making the promised payment.
Hitzone further alleged that when he followed up on the payment, Prince Narula's manager told him that he was unaware of the matter and had not yet spoken to Prince about it. According to Hitzone, the manager assured him that the issue would be discussed once Prince returned from The 50.
The rapper added, "Maine 3-4 din pehle, Prince bhai ko bola, mera hospital ke bills ka issue tha jo mujhe bharna tha. Aur jab bill bharna ho toh payment hi kaam aata hai gaane ke description mein credit kaam nahi aata hai. Maine message Kiya unhe ki bhai Bang Bang aur dusra gaana, jo aap daalne waale ho uska payment kardo, main problem main hoon. Prince bhai ne bola, kaunsa payment? (A few days ago, I told Prince bhai that I was dealing with hospital bills that I needed to pay. And when you have bills to pay, it's the payment that helps—not a credit in the song's description. I messaged him and said, 'Bhai, please pay me for Bang Bang and the other song that you're going to release. I'm in trouble right now.' Prince bhai replied, 'What payment?')."
He further shared Prince's voice note wherein the actor had said he would help him with the money and he can return it whenever he wants. However, the rapper questioned why he can't give the payment. Maine likha gaana toh maine payment ke liye kaha. Main back to back message kiya. Main Lakh, 50,000 ke liye mach mach nahi kar raha hoon. Jo mera asking amount hai voh main maangunga (I wrote the song, so I asked for payment. I kept messaging him repeatedly. I'm not creating a fuss over ₹50,000 or ₹1 lakh. I am simply asking for the amount that I had agreed upon and that is rightfully due to me)."
He revealed that he then told the situation to Munawar Faruqui, who helped him and talked to Prince. However, the rapper claimed that Prince still denied the payment and told him, "tu pehle btata toh main kisi bade artist ke saath kaam karta, tere saath nahi karta (If you had told me before, I would have worked with a bigger artist, not you)." He also played the voice recording of Prince as proof.
Sharing the video, he wrote, "I’ve been making songs with him for over a year now, we’ve done 6+ tracks together. After everything that’s happened during this time, people should know the reality behind the image that’s being shown. The real face of your Roadies idol. Prince Narula." He also claimed that Prince asked him to diss Elvish Yadav for a song. The rapper said that Prince promised to take down the video, but he still hasn't. Prince is yet to react to Hitzone's claims.
The song in question, Bang Bang, was released on February 10, 2026. The song has been sung by Prince and Rapper Hitzone with music and lyrics by No B. The song has since got 27 lakh views and 73K likes.
