Rapper KR$NA, who has pioneered socio-political rap in Hindi, says his latest single "No losses" is a testimony of his patience and perseverance.
KR$NA, whose real name is Krishna Kaul, launched "No losses" in collaboration with Irish music producer Danny E.B.
"Since my early childhood days, I started listening to rap music. This was way back in 1998 when I dreamt that one day even I'll be on stage and I would be having my own fans army," KR$NA said.
He added: "However in my entire conquest of not giving up there was a time in 2016 when I had reached a dead end when I just wanted to quit all of this because it just wasn't working out for me. I used to shuffle between two stressful jobs to make a living but the only thing that kept me going in a metropolitan city was the love I received from hip-hop community.
This song is a testimony of my time, patience and the perseverance and anyone who has a dream needs to turn a deaf ear to the naysayers. We all have to fight our own battles and be responsible for our failures and success equally but never give up on hope, manifestations and optimism."
Imbibing emotive depth, the single is a concoction of Latin pop bursts mixed with R&B sounds layered with rap verses where KR$NA is seen reflecting on his early days as an artist. The song was released on Friday across all Kalamkaar channels.
He is currently working on his sophomore studio album which will be released early next year.
