E'RE gonna reach the top, so don't try to stop. Ready to flip the game, don't try to play with us, these lines, delivered with confidence while clad in a saree by all-woman Hip-hop collective Wild Wild Women's rapper JQueen (Jacquilin Lucas), have wormed their way into the ears of 15.5 million people on Instagram since 2024. Since then, for the group, which is set to perform at Maya Bazaar, Jayamahal Palace Grounds, this Sunday, the only way forward has been up. The team recently wrapped up its first tour abroad in Germany.

"We were going through a difficult phase and hadn't posted anything for three months. Initially, the song Game Flip didn't go viral, and one day, we woke up to many texting us for performances and interviews," recalls JQueen, while Hashtag Preeti (Preeti N Sutar), who is from Karnataka, adds, "We went from 6,000 to 60,000 followers in a week. It was a turning point for us."
