The Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) recently sought clarification regarding the Dallas leg of rapper Badshah’s much-anticipated Unfinished USA Tour 2025, scheduled for September.

Badshah remains steadfast in his mission to use music as a bridge for cultural exchange and unity, ensuring his work remains entirely independent of geopolitical influences."
