Coincidentally, both Fashawn and Nas wrote their verses while touring separately in Europe. In an interview, Fashawn reflected upon the song's creation by saying, "I felt like it was the perfect canvas to paint on and epitomizes what we stand for in rap."[6] Critical receptionElias Leight of Billboard commended "Something to Believe In" for preserving hip-hop's history of being grounded in soul and funk.[2] Alicia Miller of Zumic stated that "Fashawn and Nas both drop deep bars in their verses and Blacc croons on the hook with thought-provoking lines".[7] Popular culture"Something to Believe In" appears on the soundtrack for the video game WWE 2K16 by 2K Sports, released on October 27, 2015.[4] The song also appears on Madden NFL 16 by EA Sports, released on August 25, 2015.[3] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/the-ecology/id962974629 |title=Fashawn "The Ecology" on iTunes}} {{Fashawn}}{{Nas singles}}{{Aloe Blacc}}2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/the-juice/6479900/exclusive-song-premiere-fashawns-something-to-believe-in-ft-nas |title=Exclusive Song Premiere: Fashawn's 'Something to Believe In' ft.
