In collaboration with Jamaican American rapper Overproofrum (Georgia USA), Kidd Nebula embodies his vision: “There is always a bigger picture” and boundaries are for the closed-minded. In the new single Believe it, The Kidd experiments with samples, vocoders and 808’s. Inspired by Kanye West, this Hip-Hop -like sound is a completely new addition to his (already diverse) sound with the message: Whatever you believe, visualize it, and whatever people say, your dream is your dream and no one can take that away from you. No one who hasn’t dreamt that big, will ever understand, and words can only explain so much. "You've got to see, got to feel to believe it"
After making two EP’s (Son Of Russand DOPE) completely solo in the living room, it now is time to step outside of that comfort-zone. After several recording-sessions in different cities through The Netherlands, it's all about sharing the experience; the love for music but mostly: sharing the dream with like-minded people. “Do whatever brings you peace and happiness regardless of the status quo”.

Kidd Nebula:
You've got to see, got to feel to believe it
You've got to see, got to feel to believe it
You've got to see, got to feel to believe it
You've got to see, got to feel to believe it
Walk of the stage before the end.
They'll say you're lazy.
Now walk away from all pretend.
They'll say you're crazy.
But they don't know.
'Cuz they aint woke.
And a book will tell you nothing 'till you go.
I'm not missing a trip,
And I wish you'd come with.
But I'm not gonna wake you up before I go go.
You've got to see, got to feel to believe it
You've got to see, got to feel to believe it
You've got to see, got to feel to believe it
You've got to see, got to feel to believe it
You've got some words that I don't really want to hear now.
You've got them rolling like you're bowling.
You've pressed some issues that you truly have a heart for.
Just keep it going while it's growing.
Now stack those bricks like it's the last thing that you do now.
You're gonna slowely start to own them.
You've got to see, got to feel to believe it
You've got to see, got to feel to believe it
You've got to see, got to feel to believe it
You've got to see, got to feel to believe it
Overproofrum:
YAH
80s baby, born in 88
Since then
Tryna have more money than Bill Gates
But they hate
Mad I’m ahead of the race
I just watch them fall
But me, I’m tryna elevate
I know I’m good
I’m just tryna be great
I ain’t tryna be fake
Just after the cake
And you actors out there
You better play your part
I got my legs to my mouth
Boy I walk what I talk
If you fall for anything
Then you stand for nothing
So I stay on my toes
Like I’m trying to reach something
I’m a cool kid
Just trying to be nice
But I’m unpredictable
Like the roll of the dice
And I’m gon eat
Until my tummy is full
The money is red
And guess who’s the bull
I ain’t tryna have cars and Hummers
But a bank account
With more digits than them Cell phone numbers
You got to see it
To believe it.
