Mo Kheir and Joe Pascoe met while studying architecture at university in 2007. They joined Brandon Black two years later at a local music jam night. They began as a bedroom-producing act, covering tracks they liked, and performing at open mic nights.
"Revolution" was the first single that attracted attention online. The track earned praise from MTV Iggy in the United States and was subsequently included in United States TV show 90210. No Wyld released their debut album, Preface, on 29 June 2012. The band played at the Loft at Q Theatre to celebrate the release. The band attracted the interest of major sponsors like Red Bull, who included them in a major campaign. In August 2013 they began recording their first EP, Abstract, at Red Bull Studios.
The track "Odyssey" was used in a commercial for McDonald's during Sochi 2014, and later included in the soundtrack for NHL 15, Madden NFL 16 and Need for Speed. "Odyssey" was also featured in the pregame video played before the West Virginia University Mountaineers football team took the field for home games during the 2015 season. In addition, "Let Me Know" was included in the soundtrack for FIFA 16. This song also appeared in EA Sports game, FIFA 17 with "Justfayu" featuring KAMAU.

No Wyld Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's so much that I do that you don't see
I'm always sayin' things that you can feel
And if you feel, you know that this is real
Gonna get much louder
Gonna get much louder
Gonna get much louder
Drop keys when I unlock dreams
In the doors that lead to me being free
I walk through to the unknown wild
Where I speak with my soul, use my heart to see
My mind is so intertwined
Cross lines so that I can find
A land untouched that I say is mine
And I know, and I know when I find my sign
I'll drop beats in these unknown streets
Till my name goes up and they all can see
Gold fall as the numbers rise
I applaud all the ones who believed in me
Thank God for the humble start
Now yall sit back use your eyes to see
To my sisters and brothers
Thank you for your belief
Gonna get much louder
Gonna get much louder
Gonna get much louder
Gonna get much louder
Gonna get much louder
Gonna get much louder
Gonna get much louder
Gonna get much louder
Gotta stay upbeat when I roam these streets
You'll believe in me when you hear me speak
Keep your head up high cause you're on my team
Yeah I'm one of you and you're all with me
Now I speak so properly
Used to stutter back when they would mock me
But I dropped a couple lines, now they can't top me
And I do so well only God can stop me
That's why I'm speakin' out
Tryna figure out how to move along the given route
Step back, watch the crowd, they're screamin' now
Surf on the waves of the hands that they're throwing out
Thanks for supportin', always had my back in the moment
No longer lonely, my family really understands me
Move when I move, hold on while I'm blowin' up
Gonna get much louder
Gonna get much louder
Gonna get much louder
Gonna get much louder
I know when it's all laid out that this is all on me
So clear when it's all laid out that this is all on me
I know when it's all laid out that this is all on me
All on me, know that it's all on me, know that it's all on me
I know when it's all laid out that this is all on me
So clear when it's all laid out that this is all on me
I know when it's all laid out that this is all on me
All on me, know that it's all on me, know that it's all on me

You really do not know that much 'bout me
You don't fully understand who I am
There's so much that I do that you don't see
There is a lot about me that you are not aware of
I'm always sayin' things that you can feel
The things I say evoke strong emotions
And if you feel, you know that this is real
If you are moved by what I say, you know it's genuine
Drop keys when I unlock dreams
I reveal opportunities and potential
In the doors that lead to me being free
In the paths that lead to my personal liberation
I walk through to the unknown wild
I explore uncharted or unfamiliar territories
Where I speak with my soul, use my heart to see
I communicate from a deep, emotional place
My mind is so intertwined
My thoughts and ideas are interconnected
Cross lines so that I can find
I push boundaries to discover new things
A land untouched that I say is mine
I claim a new space for myself that has not been explored
And I know, and I know when I find my sign
I am certain when I have found the right path
I'll drop beats in these unknown streets
I will create and share my art in unexplored areas
Till my name goes up and they all can see
Until my work gains recognition and attention
Gold fall as the numbers rise
Success brings financial rewards
I applaud all the ones who believed in me
I show gratitude to those who have supported me
Thank God for the humble start
I am grateful for starting from a modest place
Now yall sit back use your eyes to see
Observe and appreciate what I have achieved
To my sisters and brothers
To my fellow human beings
Thank you for your belief
Thank you for having faith in me
Gotta stay upbeat when I roam these streets
I have to remain positive when facing challenges
You'll believe in me when you hear me speak
My words will convince you of my capabilities
Keep your head up high cause you're on my team
Stay confident because you are supporting me
Yeah I'm one of you and you're all with me
I am a part of the same community as you
Now I speak so properly
I communicate effectively and articulately
Used to stutter back when they would mock me
I used to struggle with speech and was ridiculed for it
But I dropped a couple lines, now they can't top me
I improved my skills, and now I am beyond their reach
And I do so well only God can stop me
I am reaching great heights, and only divine intervention can halt my progress
That's why I'm speakin' out
That is why I am expressing myself
Tryna figure out how to move along the given route
Trying to navigate the established course
Step back, watch the crowd, they're screamin' now
Observe the reaction of the audience as they cheer
Surf on the waves of the hands that they're throwing out
Ride the wave of support from fans and well-wishers
Thanks for supporting', always had my back in the moment
Thank you for standing by me and supporting me through thick and thin
No longer lonely, my family really understands me
I no longer feel isolated, and my loved ones truly comprehend me
Move when I move, hold on while I'm blowin' up
Move with me as I progress, and hold on during my ascension
I know when it's all laid out that this is all on me
I am responsible for my success and failures
So clear when it's all laid out that this is all on me
The realization is crystal clear that everything is my responsibility
All on me, know that it's all on me, know that it's all on me
I am fully aware that I am in charge
