Punjabi Teen Rapper Param’s 'That Girl' Hits 3.5 Million YouTube Views in Under a Week

Recorded with UK producer Manni Sandhu in an Airbnb, the DIY Punjabi rap spotlights a rare female voice challenging the region’s male-dominated scene.

Overview

  • The 19-year-old from Duneke in Moga released her debut single last week, and it has crossed roughly 3.5 million views on YouTube within six days.
  • The track was composed and performed by Param, produced by Manni Sandhu for independent label Collab Creations, with vocals captured in an Airbnb and finished in his UK studio.
  • Tru Makers shot the music video in Mohali, extending a cross-border, low-budget production built around an unvarnished vocal take.
  • Param’s visibility grew from cypher-style sessions at Moga’s Dana Mandi and Instagram reels posted via the Malwa Hood page while she studied music at DM College.
  • The lyrics declare self-reliance with a nod to folklore figure Jeona Morh, and coverage notes her aim to support her family as industry leaders flag the rarity of Punjabi-language women rappers.
