“My Turn”: Lil Cyclone’s Bold Declaration of Arrival

By KJ on May 18, 2025

Lil Cyclone isn’t just making noise—he’s making a statement. And that statement is loud and clear with the release of his explosive new single “My Turn”, a razor-sharp anthem that blends hunger, self-belief, and raw intensity into just under three minutes of high-voltage energy. For the rising London artist, this isn’t just a song—it’s a turning point.

“My Turn” feels like a manifesto. Over a pulsing, genre-blending beat that fuses the bounce of trap, the menace of UK drill, and a touch of futuristic electronic grit, Cyclone delivers bar after bar of unfiltered determination. It’s a track that screams self-made, self-assured, and self-aware—hallmarks of an artist who’s no longer asking for attention but taking it.

Raised with a rich musical background—including early performances at the Royal Albert Hall and the BBC Proms—Lil Cyclone evolved from choir boy to underground heavyweight. He credits his transition into rap to inspirations like Meek Mill, Future, and Drake, but his sound is distinctly his own. Every lyric, beat, and mixdown is created by Cyclone himself, making him not just an artist, but a one-man army of creativity.

The release of PURPLEWORLD 2: DID IT AGAIN in late 2024 was a major move, but the real spark came when none other than Drake gave Cyclone an unexpected cosign. The moment lit up social media and confirmed what his core listeners already knew: Lil Cyclone is something different. The energy from that moment carried straight into 2025, where he’s hit the ground running with New Artillery! and now, his most personal and powerful track to date—“My Turn”.

Visually, the “My Turn” music video matches the tone of the song perfectly: raw, relentless, and cinematic. It captures Cyclone in his element, driven and unbothered, standing at the edge of a breakthrough with everything to prove and nothing to lose. It’s the kind of release that artists only drop when they’re fully locked in—not just creatively, but mentally.

With this track, Cyclone isn’t asking for validation—he’s claiming his space. It’s a message to the industry, to the streets, to the doubters, and to himself: It’s my time now.

For those who’ve been watching him grow, “My Turn” is the culmination of years of silent hustle and under-the-radar momentum. For new listeners, it’s the perfect entry point into a discography filled with introspection, aggression, versatility, and vision.

Lil Cyclone’s time has arrived—and he’s not handing it back anytime soon.
