After turning heads with his comeback single Je Karda, DJ Tally followed it up with his recent track Fake Friends — a bold, emotional song featuring the powerful vocals of Bakshi Billa and heartfelt lyrics by Rattu Randhawa. The song explores themes of trust and betrayal, with DJ Tally’s signature production adding intensity and depth.

A seasoned DJ since the age of 15, Tally grew up in a family of musicians and was surrounded by top tunes from a young age. That passion for music led him to co-found Gravity Entertainments with his brother Harj, creating a platform for bold, boundary-pushing sound. With influences ranging from bhangra, qawwali and Bollywood to r’n’b, hip hop, reggae and house music, the British talent selects the songs he loves.
