Brandon Mitchell is an artist who defies easy categorization, a creative force fueled by passion, discipline, and a sense of purpose that bleeds through every project he touches. His newest single, “We Already Won,” feels like the culmination of that journey—an anthem of triumph rooted not just in sound, but in soul.
From his beginnings as a dancer and choreographer captivating audiences on So You Think You Can Dance to starring in films like Step Up Revolution and Honey 2, Brandon has long been telling stories through movement. But with music, he adds a new layer to that storytelling. “We Already Won” is a sonic declaration that blends the rhythmic strength of hip-hop with a deeply personal message of perseverance. It’s less about the flashy idea of winning and more about what it means to survive, evolve, and stay grounded when the world tries to shake you.
As a Kansas City native who now calls Los Angeles home, Brandon brings a unique energy to his work—a Midwestern grit paired with West Coast polish. That duality shines on “We Already Won.” There’s swagger in the beat, but also soul in the lyrics. His voice—honest, measured, and powerful—carries the weight of lived experience. He isn’t just rapping; he’s testifying.
It’s not surprising that Brandon’s music, like his choreography and acting, connects so effortlessly. He’s already proven his range on television screens, appearing in shows like Insecure, The Rookie, and The Upshaws. Each role showcases his ability to embody authenticity, and that same authenticity is felt in every bar of “We Already Won.” His previous work as a DJ and with the Conditioning series has shown his deep understanding of musicality, but this track takes things a step further—it’s bold, triumphant, and unapologetically self-aware.
What makes “We Already Won” resonate is that it’s more than a song—it’s a statement. A reminder that victory doesn’t always look like a trophy or a chart position. Sometimes, it’s waking up with your integrity intact. Sometimes, it’s being a devoted father, a loving husband, and a servant to your community. Sometimes, it’s continuing to create even when the odds are stacked. And in Brandon Mitchell’s case, it’s all of the above.
With this release, Brandon once again proves that he’s not chasing the spotlight—he is the light. And if you listen closely, you’ll realize that “We Already Won” isn’t just his story. It’s a reflection of anyone who’s kept going when giving up seemed easier.
