Encouraging words: "People are not going to see your vision, until you paint for them." This inspiring quote from Kevin Nova, @iamkevinnova halftime performer for the @uflstorm against the @uflkings, was shared during our interview on the @alanalford_ Sports Talk Show at the stunning @interco_stadium
Kevin was invited to perform during halftime for the Orlando Storm and the @orlandomagic, and that’s when we met!
Kevin is a man of faith, like me, and with his true grit and determination as an independent artist, he’s made it!
Kevin performing in front of massive crowds at both the UFL Orlando Storm and the Orlando Magic halftime shows is absolutely epic!
If you missed the Big Orlando Storm Game, you passed up an unforgettable experience! Kevin brought the stage to life with electrifying energy and powerful lyrics, keeping the crowd buzzing and completely entertained!
Kevin did an amazing job, giving a shout-out to @roadtohalftime and the UFL for giving him the opportunity to showcase his talents to the world. It’s great that Road To Halftime, the UFL, and UFL Storm provide such an incredible platform for talented artists to shine!

On behalf of the Alan Alford Sports Talk Show, I tremendously appreciate you all!
So this is Allen from the LNL Sports Talk Show, joining Kevin, he's going to be out here at
the UFL Orlando Storm performing, he's about to go out there and what are your thoughts
right now?
Man, just doing this big for the city, doing this big for Road to Halftime, doing this
big for myself, there's a lot of people out there that's counting on me to make this dream
into a reality.
There's a lot of sleepless nights that went into this, so this moment right here is surreal,
this moment right here is everything that we've been working for and it's crazy because
it's life, we're living it right now.
So when they ask how you're living, we're right here man, we're performing for the newest
team in the UFL, we're representing Florida, we're putting on for independent artists,
so honestly it's not even a feeling that can be compared man, it's unmatched.
And definitely I know that being an artist is not easy, talk about how tough it is to
get to this point.
Just straight determination, dedication, you know people ain't going to see your vision
until you paint it for them, so you just got to keep on keeping that paintbrush strong
and don't let up on yourself because there's a lot of people that are going to try to tell
you, or rather tell me I should say, what I can and can't do and we got to learn as
individuals that that's not what it's about, it's about you make your own path and the
footsteps they might already be there but at one point you venture off in your own direction
so don't let any of the doubt ever get in your way because that's not what got me here,
what got me here is fearlessness, having my faith in God to be able to get me here and
my support, my team, my family, you know what I'm saying, my love for the game, my love
for hip hop, to me those are the biggest things and that's what makes Kevin Nova the person
that I am, you know what I'm saying, so I'm just thankful to be able to have this opportunity,
Road to Halftime, Orlando Storm, Orlando Magic, you know these are big things and you know
even though it might seem like I'm an independent artist, these are the steps that we take as
an independent artist to be able to reach that next level.
And what can they expect to see from you today and hear from you when you go out there perform?
Beast mode, that's all I'm going to say, beast mode man, this is just raw energy in its purest
form, you know what I'm saying, this is one of those moments where I'm going to let it
all out, I'm going to leave it all out there and I'm going to give that energy all back
to the city because you know what, every time I step out and I show Orlando love, they give
it right back to me tenfold, so I'm going to make sure that this is one of those days
that whenever I step, it's ten toes down and it's for the city, so I just want to be
able to leave it all out there on the field, you know like I said, this is a new team,
a new organization, but we're going to be coming in here like we own the place, you
know what I'm saying.
That's right, I'm excited to see it and you know, tell us about what some artists that
you had admired growing up.
Man, it's tough because there's so many great artists out there, I'm a fan of music, but
if I had to just categorize it into a top five, I'd definitely say J. Cole, Kanye West,
Kendrick Lamar, Pac, Jay-Z, you know I'll just leave it at that, but there's a lot more
that I'm leaving out, but I'm inspired by true lyricists, I'm inspired by people that
indulge into this on a deeper level to where it's like not just music, it's their life
and they're putting it on wax, so those are the people that I look up to and even beyond
hip-hop, I'm a fan of music in general, because without that I feel like we wouldn't be here,
those vibrations that would keep us moving, that's what keeps our emotions intact, so
I'm just like again, thankful to be representing the culture of hip-hop, the culture of music,
to be on this field and you know, some amazing people that were around that are making this
happen and without them, I wouldn't be here right now, so I just want to be able to play
my part and give my all here.
That's fantastic and tell us how we can follow and keep up with your career and beyond.
