"No Switch" is a song by American rapper YoungBoy Never Broke Again, released on January 21, 2022, as the third track from his seventeenth mixtape, Colors. In the song, YoungBoy utilizes his raspy voice with a murderous, aggressive cadence as he raps about murder and firearms.
Composition
In "No Switch," YoungBoy raps about murder, firearms, ammunition, and firearm attachments such as a switch. Rapping about his dead friends, YoungBoy leaves subliminal disses towards Lil Durk and King Von, similarly to what he does on Bring the Hook and Fish Scale.
