“Better” is a standout single from the recently released album, a film called black by Chicago-based artists Cam Be and Neak.

If you’re not familiar with the duo, Cam Be is a film director, photographer, musician, DJ, and music producer, while Neak is a hip-hop artist and producer with musical lineage—his father is Robert Kelly of the gospel quartet, The Kelly Brothers.

“Better” also features standout contributions from Rashid Hadee, Yaw, and Sam Thousand.

Sonically, the production lays down a smooth, flowing foundation—featuring Rhodes-style keys, trumpet, and a steady bass kick—that allows the chorus to truly soar. Each rapper delivers their verse without stepping on the others, creating a fluid, conversational energy as the track unfolds.

The song echoes the spirit of the Soulquarians, as if their energy was reincarnated for a track that’s introspective, gentle, and effortlessly breezy. 

Lyrically, “Better” is wise and reflective, focused on growth, healing, and striving to be better than yesterday.

Altogether, it’s a comforting and inspiring track—perfect for a deep listen or as background music while creating art.
