RollingStone India

September - October 2025 |

KR$NA is Rolling Stone India’s September/October 2025 Hip-Hop Issue cover star. Every chapter of his story reads like a calculation. From rebuilding after a broken label deal to architecting Delhi’s rap identity, KR$NA has played the long game with remarkable precision. He built systems before there was infrastructure, guided artists before there were templates, and made patience his weapon. Now, with Yours Truly marking his most ambitious chapter yet, he’s looking outward — connecting India to global hip-hop while being grounded in the discipline that defined his rise. ‎
