The Unofficial CJP Anthem Is Trending on Instagram Reels With 45 Million Plays — Nobody Knows Who Made It

A lo-fi trap track sampling Chief Justice Surya Kant's courtroom remark about unemployed youth 'roaming like cockroaches' has accumulated 45 million plays on Instagram Reels in 72 hours. The creator is anonymous. The lyrics — 'we are the cockroaches, we don't need your permission to survive' — have been screenshotted millions of times. Rolling Stone India traces the track's origins through DMs, remixes and attribution chains across five platforms, and asks what it means when a political movement's most powerful piece of propaganda was made by someone who has not taken credit.
