KasOnTheMic's most recent single, "BELIEVE," strikes like a shot of hope and courage. A brash blend of pop rap and conscious hip-hop, the song serves as a rallying cry for everyone struggling through life's obstacles with faith as their guide. "BELIEVE" is an affirmation of winning, and KasOnTheMic's supremely confident delivery weaves between a melodic, anthemic hook that stays with you long.
The track exists at the intersection of faith in God and the determined action to make it happen, so it sounds like an ode to powerful faith manifesting into something tangible. You are welcomed into the story of obstacles becoming opportunities, doubts becoming victories, and prayer leading to breakthroughs. As a lyricist, KasOnTheMic is one of the few who owns a rare form of reality in his couplet construction. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of divine favor colliding with hard work, and a vicarious victory in the face of adversity, a roadmap for anyone who has ever been underestimated, overlooked, or told their dreams were too high-flying to come true.
In a world where rap is essentially about boasting, "BELIEVE" is a voice of honesty, strength through belief, faith over fame. As far as production is concerned, the song is built on a combination of hard-hitting beats and a clean, melodious landscape. The instrumentation is meticulous, serving as an homage to the message, as the rhythm seizes you, and the song's themes of persistence and divine navigation are amplified. It's a sound that you can nod your head to, put your hands in the air, and reflect on your own journey, all at once.
"BELIEVE" is a rallying call for faith-inspired action. His lyrical content demonstrates just how much depth and weight hip-hop can bear without compromising the strength and relatability of the flow. Melding openness with confidence, spirituality with streetwise grit, he crafts a song that resonates on multiple levels. This track reminds those who've forgotten or never learned that the detoured path is often the most direct route to destiny, that closed doors lead to open ones, and that God always answers by bringing together everything we so desperately request, yet provides essential items.
