Two Underground Leaders Finally Connect
Che and Nettspend have joined forces on their new single, “KickAss (Pull Up Pls),” released across streaming platforms on September 4.
Running two minutes and 34 seconds, the Che produced track represents the first official release to feature both artists rapping together. Their anticipated collaboration arrives as Che and Nettspend continue establishing themselves as two of the most recognizable figures within rap’s internet driven underground.
Che and Nettspend’s “KickAss (Pull Up Pls)” is available to stream now on Spotify, Apple Music and other major platforms.
Che Continues Building Beyond REST IN BASS
The single adds to a productive period for Che following the momentum surrounding his 2025 album, REST IN BASS, and its expanded ENCORE edition.
The distortion heavy project helped separate the Atlanta artist from an increasingly crowded field of rage rappers. Rather than remaining confined to one established formula, Che pushed the sound toward abrasive bass, heavily manipulated vocals and unpredictable electronic production.
He followed the album with the five track Fully Loaded EP in March 2026. “Million Dollar Mansion” and “Promotin Violence” received releases across major streaming services, while the complete project was made available through SoundCloud.
By producing “KickAss (Pull Up Pls)” himself, Che maintains control over the new collaboration’s sound while creating space for Nettspend’s distinctive delivery.
Nettspend’s Rise Continues
Nettspend enters the collaboration after releasing his debut studio album, early life crisis, in March. The 21 track project included appearances from YoungBoy Never Broke Again and OsamaSon while expanding on the chaotic style that first made the Virginia rapper an online phenomenon.
His rise has also moved beyond SoundCloud and underground rap communities. After previously walking for Miu Miu, Nettspend appeared in Gucci’s 2026 runway show, demonstrating how closely his music has become connected to fashion and youth culture. Nettspend is also rumored to have an upcoming collaboration with Vans that fans are eagerly anticipating.
That crossover appeal has made him one of the most visible and frequently debated artists to emerge from his generation of internet rap.
What “KickAss” Means for the New Underground
Che and Nettspend have developed through overlapping online audiences, but “KickAss (Pull Up Pls)” is more meaningful than a routine pairing between two trending artists.
Both have helped move underground rap toward larger audiences without completely abandoning the distorted production, unconventional vocals and internet aesthetic presentation that built their original followings. Their first vocal collaboration captures that movement at a point when the boundary between underground and mainstream rap continues to disappear.
Whether “KickAss” leads to additional music remains unknown, but the release gives fans their first official look at how the two artists sound together.
