Yonkers emcee Iman Nunez continues his rise with the release of his new single, “Passing By,” featuring Sol ChYld and Rondon. The André Mego-produced track marks the third release from his forthcoming project When Will U Call? and adds another layer to an artist building momentum through candor, range, and craft.
“Passing By” blends R&B, hip-hop, and neo-soul into a reflective record centered on perseverance, doubt, and the emotional cost of pushing forward. Rondon opens the song with a haunting tone, asking, “Will I survive? Even through all these times, will I revive into a better me cause this life’s passing by…” The line frames the track’s central tension: growth in the face of pressure and time that never slows.
As the song progresses, feelings of sadness, doubt, and meaning come to light. The music allows each voice to shine while keeping a comfortable and open feel that fits the theme.
Iman writes some of his most honest and revealing work to date, using direct language to talk about mental health and inner conflict.
“Tryna tap into this sh-t for my anxiety, only way that I knew I could find a higher me, haven’t moved a muscle and ignoring what’s inside,” he raps. The verse offers a stark look at emotional paralysis and the struggle to reconnect with self.
Iman Nunez’s “Passing By” highlights his growth as a writer and music creator. The single is honest and catchy, hinting at a personal upcoming project.
