If you’ve ever sat behind the wheel at 2AM, windows down, feeling everything and nothing all at once — this is your song. “Make It Out,” the latest release from rising artist no good, doesn’t just sound like freedom — it feels like it.


Taken from his debut EP, “Make It Out” is a coming-of-age anthem disguised as a chill, atmospheric groove. It doesn’t beg for attention. Instead, it creeps in, slow-burning and soft-spoken, until suddenly it’s in your bones. The vocal is pure youth: raw around the edges, but with an undercurrent of strength that says, “Yeah, I’ve seen some shit — but I’m still here.”


The track hums with late-night energy. It’s got that floating-on-the-highway kind of production — smooth basslines, minimalistic beats, a hint of haze like streetlights in your rearview mirror. And it’s not trying to do too much. That’s the beauty of it. No Good doesn’t drown his message in noise. He lets the lyrics breathe, and that honesty hits harder because of it.


Lyrically, “Make It Out” is for anyone who’s ever stared down a dead-end day and dared to dream beyond it. There’s this quiet hope tucked into every verse — like someone’s scribbled affirmations into a worn notebook and turned them into melody. It’s about grit, about waiting for a break that hasn’t come yet but still believing it will. Not in a fairytale way — in a real way. Because let’s be honest, life isn’t always pretty. But this track reminds you that even in the ugliest moments, there’s still movement forward.



As a first impression, “Make It Out” does exactly what a debut single should: it opens a door. It doesn’t scream at you to come in — it just leaves it open and lets the music speak. And once you’re in, you’ll want to stay a while.


no good has carved out something special here — a song that feels like your own thoughts, just put to music better than you could have imagined. Whether you’re in the thick of your struggle or just learning how to breathe again, this track belongs on your playlist.


Because even when life feels like a trap, “Make It Out” is proof that escape isn’t just possible — it’s already in motion.
