If there was ever any doubt about Dong’s place in the top tier of the Nepali Rap game, ‘Balance’ puts it to rest in three minutes flat. The latest single off his 2024 album Tayari, ‘Balance’ is a full-throttle banger where Dong is ready for war from the jump. His flow is relentless, ricocheting off the beat with machine-like precision. Every bar slices through the air, with each syllable a weapon aimed at the imaginary competition left scrambling in his wake.

There’s an ease to how he rides the beat by Rohit Shakya, which comes layered with ominous 808s and flickering hi-hats. Dong barrels through the track as a statement piece that closes his album. It’s also one of Dong’s most technically exhilarating moments. The verses twist and pivot without warning or a wasted breath. There’s barely a hook to latch on to.

‘Balance’ isn’t about easy gratification. It’s about Dong’s lyrical dominance, delivered with style and venom.
