‘Believer’ has a really dreamy vibe to the opening that warbles in the high levels of the melody, before dropping into bopping RnB flow. It is a really rich mixture of RnB and soul weaving its way into your spirit. There is this light bounce to the beats that get you bopping away to the rhythm while infusing a bright energy into your soul. You can’t help but feel a little lighter after hearing the melody as it starts the pump of strength that is solidified in the vocals. While the main melodic line is all smooth RnB and soul, there is a glittering movement that shimmers over the high levels that takes over more as the single progresses. This is like a soothing balm that eases the rough edges of your spirit and starts the journey of reaching for your dreams again.

Through the dreamy opening, the vocals hum and gently lead you into the drop of the beats. This is when Scott’s punchy vocals come in with a wonderful mixture of RnB and a touch of hip-hop. Her performance slides across your sense with a sultry flow, before bouncing off the beats to get you bopping to the sound. As you are sliding to her performance, the lyrics slowly build your strength. Through the lyrics, Scott lets you know that taking time for yourself is important, but you need to believe in yourself to achieve your dreams. It is an unbelievably empowering and inspiring single that hits on all the right notes, both sonically and emotionally.

Kingna Scott slides into your senses with a smooth, yet bouncing, mixture in ‘Believer’, to build your strength and inspire you to reach for your dreams. The melody moves from a rather dreamy opening to a bopping fusion of RnB and soul that soothes the rough edges of your soul. Her performance continues this fusion style while filling you with the empowerment and self-belief you need to chase your dreams.
