After a hiatus of 5 months post “Dough”, Jharkhand hip-hop’s poster boy Kanishq Singh is back with his latest trap tune “Lonely”. When Kanishq and Innovura dropped “Lonely’s” poster on social media, fans of the trapper predicted the track to be a melancholic piece of music; but the Jharkhand lad subverts expectations with his latest drop as “Lonely” is a high-octane trap banger preaching the power of solitude and using it to motivate yourself. 

The groovy rhyme scheme by Kanishq Singh stands out in “Lonely”

While the scene today lacks trappers with good melodies, what the scene lacks, even more, is trappers with lyricism and substance. Trap as a genre isn’t built on bars but a trapper with bars appeals to all and that’s where Kanishq Singh’s lyricism stands out in “Lonely”. An average trapper on a song titled Lonely would most likely trap about nihilism, drugs, and bitc*es but the “Dough” hitmaker shows why he is not your average trapper as he instead uses his art to preach motivation. 

With slick rhymes, fresh references, and witty metaphors backed by Kanishq’s incredibly catchy melody, Lonely is an earworm that keeps growing on you. The melodies are equally matched by the messaging which inspires listeners to push past loneliness and external challenges. The song pushes them to embrace their dreams and drive themselves toward success. Kanishq peppers the track with hard-hitting personal anecdotes which provides an extra impact of the messaging on the listeners.

The music is produced by ‘Beats by VVK’ who does a stellar job in the production. VVK’s periodic placement of hi-hats backed by a Latin guitar sample adds the groove while the flutes encompass the production wholesomely. A special shoutout to the aptly used drums and kicks in the song which helps add gravitas to Kanishq’s vocals.

Conclusion

“Lonely” by Kanishq Singh serves as a reminder that despite hardships in life, we all possess the capacity to overcome them and reach greatness. The Jharkhand rapper’s quotables backed by his infectious flow make this a must-listen on your 3 am playlist.
