The Bronx-born artist losLAUREN 718 delivers a powerful message of triumph and resilience in his latest track, "I Came, I Saw," featuring the soulful vocals of Janelle Nadine. Released on August 26, 2024, under his label Allergic to Failure, LLC, the song stands as a testament to his perseverance in the face of adversity. Produced by losLAUREN 718 himself and engineered by Adrian Dickey, the track pulsates with raw emotion and conviction. Having grown up in the Bronx during a time of intense gang violence and overcoming life-threatening challenges such as cancer, losLAUREN 718 describes the song as his personal "Victory Lap," drawing inspiration from Nipsey Hussle's relentless pursuit of success.
For losLAUREN 718, "I Came, I Saw" is more than just a song—it's a declaration of triumph. After losing his entire music catalog and having to start over from scratch, many doubted his ability to rise again. But against the odds, he not only rebuilt his career but soared to new heights. Now, with magazine features, blog articles, a recent live television interview, and an award-winning feature in a movie out of Toronto, Canada, he's proven that nothing can keep him down for long. Each line in the song reflects his life’s battles, from beating a misdemeanor and felony charge to defeating cancer and overcoming poverty.
The track is a lyrical autobiography, packed with meaning. losLAUREN 718 admits it's hard to choose a favorite line because every word resonates with his journey. But fans can expect more as his momentum continues. With a music video already out for "I Came, I Saw" and a follow-up video for "Birthday Cake" set to drop in October, losLAUREN 718 is staying in the spotlight. His accolades—Unsigned Hype Winner, Coast to Coast Mixtape video award winner, and an iTunes Top 100 artist—are proof that his dedication and perseverance have paid off. The artist who rose from the Bronx’s toughest streets is now debt-free, owning his homes and cars, and standing as an inspiring figure of triumph.
