Nikita Releases Latest Single “No One Is Gonna”
Singer-songwriter Nikita has released her new single “No One Is Gonna,” the second single off of her album ‘Suspend.’

Listening to “No One Is Gonna” by Nikita feels like finding a fixed point in the middle of a turning room. The floor’s still moving, the furniture’s still sliding around, but there’s a center you can stand on. That’s what this track is: a rare moment of emotional gravity in a genre that’s too often in a rush to move on.
This is the second track from Suspend, Nikita’s upcoming EP due September 17th, and it shows a completely different muscle than her debut. “Kill Her Mind” was a stunner—sonically rich, emotionally chaotic, a perfect depiction of the inner monologue after heartbreak. But “No One Is Gonna” flips that completely. It’s all about restraint. And in that restraint, we get something radical: presence.
There’s not much in the way of crescendo here. No bridge that tries to blow the roof off. But the song doesn’t need it. It swells in feeling, not volume. There’s a line between minimalism and emptiness, and Nikita knows exactly where it is. Her voice does most of the work here, with production that hums gently underneath like breath.
And then there’s the writing. Nikita’s lyricism doesn’t scream for attention, but it rewards those who listen closely. Phrases unfold slowly, deliberately. You get the sense that each word was tested, weighed, and only kept if necessary. That discipline makes the emotional core hit that much harder.
It’s also worth noting the setting of the release. Debuting this song live at Nublu—a room that favours improvisation and nuance—makes perfect sense. Nikita isn’t a pop act in the traditional sense. She’s building something more durable, something rooted in careful observation and self-study. Her collaborations with spaces like the Nili Lotan Music Series reflect that too: she’s curating experience, not just delivering content.
With Suspend, she’s offering something deeply personal, but not self-absorbed. She’s not wallowing, and she’s not posturing. She’s just trying to articulate what it means to feel something fully and to sit with it, even when you don’t know what comes next. That’s the kind of music that stays with you.
