'Send It to Ya Boss’: Nitija Drops the First Firestarter from Her Album PTXD.

Meet Nitija, the artist who turned corporate burnout into a fiery, hip-hop-fueled punch. Her latest track, "Send it to ya boss," isn’t just a song—it’s a raw, hilarious, and unapologetic rebellion. It’s the first single from her album, PTXD., a project that is a defiant act of turning pain into power.

For Nitija, this journey is a full-circle moment. She grew up as a self-described "depressed Indian goth on thot energy," a Goth Bratz Doll fueled by 2000s icons like Michael Jackson, Beyoncé, Britney Spears, and Missy Elliot. Despite music being in her "DNA"—with grandparents as theatre performers and parents as trained Carnatic and Hindustani singers—she chose writing as her "next best survival skill." For a decade, you’d find her bylines in major publications like Elle India and Times of India, covering fashion and lifestyle.

But the corporate grind took a toll, leading to a major burnout. Nitija did the one thing her soul was screaming for: she quit and went back to her true calling. She rebuilt her foundation, attending workshops for heels and hip-hop, and even completing a certificate course with NYU Tisch x Billboard.

The origin story of "Send it to ya boss" is as unhinged as the track itself. Born from a moment of intense rage towards a former boss and teacher, Nitija wrote the entire song on Garageband in just three hours. The best part? The viral-worthy intro comes from a voice note in her group chat: "Don't do it girl, it's not worth it." Nitija slapped some effects on it, and boom—a defiant anthem was born. She conceptualized, produced, and directed the entire music video herself, proving that a creative fire can burn anywhere.

The full album, PTXD., is an unapologetic exploration of feminine rage, healing, and power. The name is a flip of PTSD, with the 'X' representing everything society tells women not to be: "messy, sexual, chaotic, unhinged." As Nitija says, it’s a way of turning pain into power. She’s turned her trauma into a bold, cathartic masterpiece, inviting you to feel the rage, find your own power, and maybe even send it to ya boss when you feel like it.
