Mudde is a Hindi hip-hop track from Raga’s NO FORMULA, featuring yungsta and Mr. Doss. The song carries the aggression and confidence associated with Raga’s music, but there is more underneath it. Anxiety, long friendships, loyalty, time spent in hip-hop and the people who have stayed through that journey all become part of the writing. Raga, yungsta and Mr. Doss share the songwriting credits, while Mr. Doss and Basspeak handle the production.
Raga has described NO FORMULA as a meeting point between the “Old Raga” and the “New Raga”, bringing his harder sound together with a more vulnerable and personal side. Mudde fits naturally into that idea. The tougher bars sit alongside moments about anxiety, friendship and the years that hip-hop has shaped their lives. Released on September 11, 2026, the track also carries the history Raga and yungsta share, giving the song a personal weight beyond its confrontational surface.
Lyric explanations
Word meaningMudde
English Meaning
Mudda (मुद्दा) means an issue, matter or point under discussion. The song keeps playing with that meaning. At first, a mudda is something the crew gets involved in. Later Yungsta brings in words like peshi, making the whole thing sound almost like a court case.
Word meaningDaridri
English Meaning
Poverty, destitution, indigence.
Word meaningRokda
English Meaning
Rokda means cash or ready money. Hindwi gives its primary meaning as naqad rupaya.

Word meaningKhachre
English Meaning
Khachre is Delhi-NCR street slang for rough, unruly local guys, often carrying the image of people involved in fights, shady activity or street trouble. The word shows up with the same flavour in Delhi hip-hop too, including Lil Bhavi’s “Dilli mein khachre hai many” on Taakat. Yungsta’s “trained khachre” therefore sounds like trusted street guys around him who know how to keep watch, rather than the literal dictionary meaning of khachra.

Word meaningWhite Collar like SickFlip
English Meaning
White Collar is a Kaam Bhaari and SickFlip track released through IncInk. Radio City’s interview with the pair specifically discusses the song and identifies SickFlip as its producer. Yungsta names the song and the artist in one phrase, while vichlit / mix it / SickFlip forms its own three-part rhyme run.

Word meaningOTW parivaar
English Meaning
OTW stands for Of the Wilderness, the music company that works across talent management, publishing, distribution and artist development. Its current roster includes Raga, Yungsta and Mr. Doss, so “OTW parivaar” is a direct shoutout to the team all three are connected through.

Line explanationभाँप लेंगे डर तेरा बहुत दूर से
English Meaning
Bhaanpna (भाँपना) means figuring something out from signs, behaviour or circumstances without being directly told. So they are saying they can sense someone’s fear before that person even shows it.
Line explanationRealness in my music that I'm puttin' out
English Meaning
“Realness” is not just standard rap vocabulary for Raga. He has described his own writing in almost exactly these terms. In a 2022 interview, he said he writes from his own life and experiences, is “as honest as they come,” does not sugarcoat things, and wants his music to contain genuine lyrics and rhyme schemes. He also said East Delhi, drug use around him and encounters with law enforcement shaped his writing. So realness in my music is basically Raga restating his own writing philosophy.
Line explanationघुमा दूँ पूरा scene, कर दूँ tilted
English Meaning
“Ghuma doon” and “tilted” work visually together. He can turn the scene until it is literally tilted. But tilted also describes someone becoming mentally rattled or thrown off their game. So yungsta is both rotating the scene and upsetting the people inside it.
It is a simple bar, but the physical image and the slang meaning meet in the same word.
Line explanationWe just a couple lit kids, बचपन से जो gifted
English Meaning
Yungsta started rapping and battling at 14, so “bachpan se” is fairly literal on his side. His older verse on Hona Hi Tha also says, “2009 se man I’ve been at it.” The “couple” naturally brings Raga into that long history too.

Line explanationतेरा favorite rapper, बावे, still shit
English Meaning
Raga has used a very similar “your favourite artist” flex before. On Hona Hi Tha, he looks back at Delhi hip-hop around 2014 and says: “Tera favourite artist tabhi kone mein tha” while he and Yungsta were already trying to build a scene.
The wording in Mudde feels like Raga returning to the same chip on his shoulder: the people being celebrated today were not around when they were putting in the early work.

Line explanationMatt Reeves का Batman, know I’m the vengeance
English Meaning
Yungsta picks a very specific Batman. Robert Pattinson’s Batman in Matt Reeves’ The Batman introduces himself with “I’m vengeance.” Reeves has explained that Bruce begins the film driven by rage and sees himself as vengeance before his idea of what Batman should be starts changing.
That version fits the surrounding bars perfectly: fear, aggression and revenge rather than the heroic side of Batman.

Line explanationतेरा favorite rapper, बावे, still shit
English Meaning
Raga used almost the same taunt on Hona Hi Tha. His verse there looks back to 2014 and says, “tera favourite rapper tabhi kone mein tha,” placing himself and his circle in the scene before many later rappers arrived. “Still shit” sounds like the updated version of that old flex. Shazam credits Ravi Mishra, Raga, as a rapper and songwriter on the track, while a verse-labelled transcription places the 2014 section under Raga.

Line explanationAnxiety थोड़ी चंचल, होने देता मन नहीं विचलित
English Meaning
Vichlit carries the sense of becoming unstable, shaken or moving away from one’s resolve. The wording separates anxiety from the mind: the anxiety may be restless, but Yungsta does not let his mann become equally unsettled. Hindwi even lists asthir and chanchal among the meanings of vichlit, making the pairing unusually tight.
Source: Hindwi Dictionary — Vichlit
Line explanationTy Dolla, I’m singin’ Cinderella, make me sin
English Meaning
Cinderella is Mac Miller’s track featuring Ty Dolla $ign from The Divine Feminine. Mac Miller’s official archive lists Ty on the song and describes the album as a project built around love and intimacy. Yungsta gives the featured artist first, then the song title; “make me sin” stays inside the sensual tone of the reference.
Line explanationFuture proofing ही जहाँ नहीं करता निवेश
English Meaning
Yungsta spent five years studying architecture, and a Full Power Dostcast episode explicitly includes a discussion about applying principles of design in rap. “Future-proofing” is also established architecture language for designing something so it can respond to future changes. His older Hona Hi Tha verse adds the financial side: paying off his degree loan through rap, leaving his job and later saying “grown men we investing in property.” “Future proofing” and nivesh therefore sit naturally between design, money and building something for the long term.

Line explanationYungi करे plan strategise, करे Ravi वार
English Meaning
Yungi is Yungsta, and Ravi is Raga, whose real name is Ravi Mishra. Vaar means a strike or attack, so Yungi plans and Ravi strikes. The wordplay starts one line earlier with Ravivar, then splits into Ravi vaar, before the next line lands on parivaar. Shazam credits Yash Chandra and Ravi Mishra on Hona Hi Tha, while Hindwi gives vaar as a blow, attack or assault.

Line explanationमुद्दे में घुसते ही mmm-mmm-mmm
English Meaning
The “mmm-mmm-mmm” most likely plays on the viral ACP Pradyuman “Iska matlab samjhe, Daya?” cadence from CID, used here as a quick comic reference rather than a literal part of the sentence. At the same time, the unfinished sound can also feel like a deliberately censored threat, as if the line stops just before saying something harsher about what happens once they enter a mudda. That ambiguity suits the hook: it can be heard as a meme reference, a warning, or both.
Line explanationBlade रखते मुँह में, फिर भी लगता नहीं है tetanus
English Meaning
Keeping a blade hidden in the mouth is associated with pickpockets and street criminals, and the image was also made memorable by Perpendicular in Gangs of Wasseypur Part 2.
Carrying a blade like that can easily cause cuts and expose someone to infection, including tetanus through contaminated wounds. Yungsta exaggerates that danger for effect: these people handle blades so casually that even something as risky as tetanus seems unable to touch them.

Multi-line explanationपंद्रह साल से है Raga मेरा भाई … And it wouldn't happen possible if it wasn't for Hip-Hop, baby
English Meaning
Yungsta is talking about a friendship that began long before most of their public releases. The exact “15 saal” comes from Yungsta himself, while their shared history is visible at least as far back as the early Delhi hip-hop years: Raga looks back to 2014 and Sunno on Hona Hi Tha, and the official Sunno video brought Yungsta and Raga together in 2016. The second line gives hip-hop credit for that bond too. Rap did not only become their career, it is also what brought them into the same circle and kept them working together for years.
