Some records want your attention. Others ask you to sit with yourself for a minute. “God Somewhere,” the new collaboration from Chicago-connected creatives Cam Be and Neak, featuring Sam Thousand and Elisa Latrice, feels built for that second kind of encounter—the kind that hits differently when the room gets quiet and your thoughts get loud.

Released October 8, 2026, through A Film Called Black, the track lives at the intersection of conscious hip-hop, jazz, and soul, with boom-bap sensibilities grounding its more expansive ambitions. Its central question is already sitting there in the title: God Somewhere. Not necessarily where tradition tells you to look, not necessarily where somebody else says the answers live. Just somewhere. That little word leaves room for doubt, discovery, and the possibility that meaning doesn’t always arrive with a map.

The appeal here is the meeting of perspectives. Cam Be brings a multidisciplinary creative background spanning music, filmmaking, photography, DJing, and production. Neak, joining him on the release, helps anchor the project in Chicago’s independent hip-hop orbit, while Sam Thousand and Elisa Latrice add their presence to a collaboration framed around soulful instrumentation, expressive vocals, and reflective English-language lyricism. The combination points toward a version of hip-hop that isn’t afraid to leave some breathing room around its message.
