Karan Aujla Announces New Album 'P-Pop Culture' at Montreal Show
The Punjabi rapper and singer also dropped a teaser for his upcoming single “MF GHABRU,” arriving July 31 ahead of the album on August 22, 2025.
Punjabi music star Karan Aujla has announced his next album, P-Pop Culture, during his Saturday (July 26) night concert in Montreal. The album is set to release on August 22, 2025.
The announcement came mid-performance at Centre Bell, pausing mid-set to reveal the title and release date, prompting loud cheers from the crowd.
Videos of the moment quickly made rounds on social media, with fans sharing their excitement across Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.
During the Montreal show, Aujla also gave fans a sneak peek of new music, performing a track that’s rumored to be the first single from the album.
Soon after the concert, Aujla’s official team Instagram page shared a teaser of his upcoming single “MF GHABRU,” slated for release on July 31.
While details about the tracklist and collaborators remain under wraps, P-Pop Culture is expected to build on the success of Aujla's previous projects Four Me and Making Memories, which topped charts and showcased his ability to bridge Punjabi music with global pop trends.
Aujla has become one of the most prominent Punjabi artists on the Billboard Canada charts, consistently breaking records for South Asian acts. His 2023 album Making Memories, a collaboration with Ikky, debuted at No. 5 on the Canadian Albums Chart, the highest debut for a Punjabi album in Canada.
The record spawned major hits like “Admirin’ You” and “Softly,” which not only topped streaming charts but also crossed over to mainstream Canadian audiences.
In 2024 and 2025, Aujla continued his streak with multiple singles landing on the Canadian Hot 100, including “Wavy” (peaked at No. 7) and “At Peace” (debuted at No. 8 in July 2025). His collaborations with international artists such as “Tell Me” with One Republic and Ikky further cemented his growing global presence.
