There are videos on TikTok that use the song’s chorus, so many of you may find it familiar.

Its energetic melody, weaving between major and minor modes, will get your adrenaline pumping just by listening.

“All I Do Is Win” is a hip-hop track that expresses both the harshness of the fight and the joy of victory.
Featuring authentic rappers like Rick Ross and Snoop Dogg, it’s a star-studded song that hip-hop heads are sure to enjoy.
