“Zeeën van tijd” isn’t just Kereltje’s first single—it’s a statement. Released on June 6, 2025, the track sees him team up with his brother Emielio in a way that feels so genuine. Entirely recorded at home, there’s an unpolished, unfiltered energy throughout the track. Kereltje himself created the beat and also contributes vocals to the track, and you can tell it was a full-circle project from start to finish. His chemistry with his brother is so natural, and you can feel the rawness to the track. This was more than just a project—it was an idea of where they are and where they want to be.

The lyrics themselves on “Zeeën van tijd” are dedicated to anyone who’s ever felt weighed down by things or noise. The message is straightforward and bold that life is too short for nonsense. Rather than chasing clout or fame for fame’s sake, the two focus on personal growth and actual goals. You can hear the urgency in every bar. There’s an old-school, West Coast classic influence on their work here (Tupac, Biggie, Slim, and Nas to name a few), not in how they sound but in how focused and hungry they are. That old energy is present, just updated for a new sound looking to create a lane without asking for permission.

Why does this matter? Because it’s not trying too hard. It’s not trying to be something it’s not. It’s two brothers, working from their bedrooms to rise up as upcoming artists with purpose. The beat is polished, the hook is catchy, and it all feels accessible. “Zeeën van tijd” isn’t just a debut—it’s a reminder that sometimes, the best music comes from your bedroom made with intention, truth, and no sea of time to waste.
