Track 2 : Raakh Zamana Kar
“Raakh Zamana Kar” is the second track of the album, Bella here tried something very new by giving it a touch of horror. The lyrics of this track seem to be exposing and spitting out facts about the Desi hip-hop community and artists.
Track 3 : Kendrick Wala Gana

Track 5 : Chemical Reaction
Rightly so, Mixtape’s last track is named “Chemical Reaction.” This is the most melodic track on the album.
Whereas throughout the mixtape we see an aggressive, gangsta vibe and the over the edge side of Bella, this track feels like a soft yet impactful end to this authentic, groovy, and engaging tape. In this track, Bella opens up about himself, his hardships, and how he has been portrayed in a very different light because he is not what people assume him to be.
