Kush K Drops Explosive New Single “Winning”

Kush K, the Melbourne rapper, producer, engineer, and studio boss, has officially entered his “nothing to lose, everything to gain” era, and his latest single, “Winning,” is the theme song.

The hard-knocking new track feels like the moment right after you survive the storm — still soaked, still scarred, but absolutely certain you’re not going back. Kush raps with precision and hunger over a beat that thunders like it was made to soundtrack a walkout, snarling about fake friends, overdue recognition, and finally getting what’s his.

Kush is the kind of artist who wears every hat and still raps better than your favorite rapper’s favorite rapper. He’s been grinding since 2018, opened his own studio (TheHotBox), runs his own label (Type Shit Records), and dropped his debut album The Revelations last year — all without a major co-sign or fancy backing. “Winning” doesn’t just sound triumphant — it feels like someone who fought every step to get here.

And the numbers are starting to reflect that. The official music video for “Winning,” released on May 23, 2025, has racked up over 146,000 views on YouTube and counting, while the track has crossed 68,000 streams on Spotify—not bad for an independent artist competing in a lane dominated by major-label firepower. It’s even getting playlisted alongside names like Lil Baby and Travis Scott, and the comments section is already calling Kush the next one to watch.

Lyrically, he’s pulling no punches. There’s one line where he spits: “Ain’t in it for the fame, just the funds and the healing” — and that pretty much sums it up. This isn’t some motivational Spotify-core playlist filler. It’s raw, technical, personal — and it bumps.

Could this be Kush K’s breakthrough moment outside of Australia’s rap underground? Maybe. But whether or not the wider world’s ready to crown him, Kush already knows where he’s headed — and “Winning” is just the beginning of the lap.
