Win
No Komment
An uplifting, soulful rap song that reflects pop back at you.
No Komment is a Pakistani-American soul rapper from Ossining, New York that was exposed to the music industry early on. As a kid, he turned to battle rap as an outlet to express himself. That, along with artists like Jadakiss and D Block, inspired him to pursue music full-time. Currently, No Komment sites NY Drill and melodic R&B songs as some of his biggest influences when it comes to making tunes. They’ve already had an enormous impact on his previous release, titled “Lights Camera Action.” His influential pieces are available on Spotify, YouTube, and SoundCloud. No Komment’s latest track is the soul-rap combination, “Win.” The song also has accompanying visuals.
I think No Komment’s breakout year is right around the corner. He has a well-developed fan base and lyrical abilities indicative of success; “Win” is a strong example of the latter. It is the kind of song that a seasoned musician releases. It’s uplifting; similar to something you might hear from The Score. My favorite lines are found on the chorus (I wanna win, I wanna win, I imma take it. I wanna walk into a room with a standing ovation). Doesn’t everybody want that? No Komment just knows how to get it, and he expresses as much. He’s a hard worker who will stop at nothing to achieve his dreams, and all of that tenacity comes into his music. So, stream No Komment’s “Win” today to learn how far your achievements can really take you.
