Shahid Khan, conocido artísticamente como Naughty Boy, es un productor musical, compositor y músico británico que ha dejado una huella significativa en la industria de la música pop. Desde sus comienzos humildes hasta alcanzar renombre internacional, su talento y creatividad lo han catapultado a una posición destacada en el panorama musical contemporáneo.
Nacido el 13 de marzo de 1985 en Watford, Inglaterra, Shahid Khan creció en una familia paquistaní-británica. Su pasión por la música inició desde temprana edad, aunque inicialmente su carrera no parecía encaminarse hacia el ámbito artístico. Asistió al London Metropolitan University para estudiar negocios y marketing, pero pronto se vio inmerso en el mundo de la creación musical, donde encontró su verdadera vocación.
Naughty Boy abandonó la universidad y comenzó a trabajar en diversos empleos ocasionales para financiar su carrera musical. Su dedicación rindió frutos en 2005 cuando ganó 40,000 libras en un programa de concursos llamado Deal or No Deal. Este premio le permitió adquirir un pequeño estudio de grabación para comenzar a experimentar y producir su propia música.
A lo largo de los años siguientes, Naughty Boy colaboró con varios artistas emergentes, afinando sus habilidades como productor y compositor. Su primera colaboración significativa fue con la cantante Emeli Sandé. Juntos trabajaron en varias canciones, destacándose Diamond Rings en 2009, que estableció una base sólida para futuras colaboraciones.
En 2013, Naughty Boy lanzó su tan esperado álbum debut, Hotel

[Chorus]
What am I meant to do with all of these choices?
What's the right path for me?
Is there something I'm meant to prove
I can hear so many voices in my head
What am I meant to do with all of these choices?
What's the right path for me?
Is there something I'm meant to prove
I can hear so many voices in my head
[Verse 1]
Would I feel me, if I weren't me
And I had a CD with my face and name on it?
It feels like I'm battling with an insane conscious
As long as I don't make nonsense and I stay honest
I couldn't care if they pay homage, I get paid profit
There's tales behind me, life reminds of the game Sonic
I'm tryna find the right path and not stray from it
Craters where I stand, but I won't do the MJ on it
I give you all my best show, that's a stage promise
Look, I've come a long way from splitting draws
When I used to kick in doors working for a vicious cause
Spitting raw, fame and fortune was all I was wishing for
These kids applause and I got labels in a bidding war
N' give a fuck more now than they ever did before
Cause when you're in a big position, pigeons wanna sit and talk
It all sounds so exciting, but this shit is boring
I ain't even touring, so...
[Chorus]
What am I meant to do with all of these choices?
What's the right path for me?
Is there something I'm meant to prove
I can hear so many voices in my head
What am I meant to do with all of these choices?
What's the right path for me?
Is there something I'm meant to prove
I can hear so many voices in my head
[Verse 2]
Voices in my head, I'm struggling to make the right choice
If I don't do Grime then my fans will think that I'm moist
Knowing them, they'll think I sold my soul for money
Making funny hits, even though, they know I'm gully
It's a bloody trick, that all my supporters
Will think i've sold out
The only thing I'm planning having sold out
Is my show now
And Women found successful men more attractive
Than road clowns
So if your wifey's high profile
I can make her go down
It's hard, tryna be a righteous man
But to catch you off your guard
You need to devise a plan
My hearts actually scarred
I believe I'm like my dad
But admitting that's a par
I ain't even tryna act
I don't even like that fact
But I can't fight the truth
I can be inside your flat
With the Star-9 and shoot
Hotting you up to the max
Cause I can't find the food
But instead I'm writing raps
Tryna past by the booth like...
[Chorus]
What am I meant to do with all of these choices?
What's the right path for me?
Is there something I'm meant to prove
I can hear so many voices in my head
