Yeah buddy, going the racism route was not the way to go.
EDIT: would help if I actually used the proper code

I don't know if I've seen an NXT act fall apart quite like Hit Row have currently.
Only being used in promos and... frankly really bad ones B-Fab is just cut from the company after a single week. And now this.
Top Dolla kinda clowned himself here... feel like the point was missed with how goofy Jinder and Shanky were purposefully being.

Yeah, the first sentence is the epitome of NXT Hit Row vs. Smackdown Hit Row.

On another note: This dude really came down on Jinder and Shanky's rap, and then responded with his own diss track where among all the other crap wrong with it... he rhymed the word "rap" with "rap", with 100 percent sincerity that he was killing it in the studio
He woke up that morning and chose to deliver a knockout blow to his own face lmfao

Yeah, the first sentence is the epitome of NXT Hit Row vs. Smackdown Hit Row. And like... we all saw it coming. Almost everyone I saw said "This is way too soon for their callup"... and it feels like they didn't even give them a chance to TRY and fail... they just immediately cut B-Fab and ow we have an incomplete and broken, sinking act And if Von Wagner's callup is anything to go by... WWE's notion of NXT 2.0 now being the new long term greenhorn developmental plan? They're already failing with it.

I dont think there was racism, bringing up stuff form his culture for rhymes aint racist(unless I missed something) still,the rap isnt good.

I can see people getting mad about the Curry Beef and Sari lines. Even though I’m pretty sure Jinder is Sikh. Also the music that he used is very stereotypically Indian

You know, at least Mahal and Skanky have the excuse that they're playing heels to excuse their shitty rapping.

Him and Jinder/Shakky both f***ed up. I've always had an issue with anytime someone tries to rap in this company and they go to the same old crap Jinder and em used and the fact they did that was actually racist as well which ain't surprising given this ain't the first time we've seen some stuff with Jinder that's been similar. Top Dolla's track was racist too, just nutty. He should have known better. I can see why he'd get upset given they did some foul shit ie that essentially attacking the culture which not a lot of people see because they aren't in it but that's no excuse to do the same thing.
They need to get talked to. That's f***ed up.
EDIT: Update from 11/21. Top Dolla said that apparently he and Jinder not only planned this out but they were next to each other when even he picked the beat, Jinder even went to officials and told them that they planned this whole thing. So given this yeah, I take back my statement as they both got approval from the other to say this.

Yeh didnt even cross my mind Jinder is Sikh,that definitely can be racist. And I didnt see Jinder's rap to comment on it and it is probably better I don't

I wonder if Jinder's rap was scripted or something he came up with on his own, I seem to remember him saying in 2017 he came up with all his own material but he might have been bullshitting then.

The possibility that Jinder just keeps dipping into the well on awfulbad racist shit for heat is tough to not at least consider at this point. Imagine having stroke and using it for this multiple times.

I've got it I'll just constantly say terrible racist bullshit... *Jinder nods 100% pleased with himself*

Imagine having stroke and using it for this multiple times. I always figured Jinder’s just a bit of a dumbass, and thought he was just saying this right things to help his career along. I doubt they trusted Jinder f***ing Mahal of all people to write his own material. I mean, they barely trusted him to wrestle his own matches at the time, with how much work the Singhs had to put in.

From the general reaction I’ve seen online he’s doing a good job of turning people against an act they really liked with constant foot-in-mouth syndrome. Also, why does he always sound out of breath when rapping!?!

I'm not a rap expert, but I suspect that there isn't really a cool way to go "Get it? [repeat and explain the preceding line]"
