BELLY
PREMIERES NEW VIDEO FOR “BALLERINA”

Critically acclaimed rapper and songwriter/producer Belly shares the official video to his latest single, “Ballerina” exclusively via Mass Appeal. The Ramon Ayala directed visual features a cinematic story that draws attention to the duplicity of a somber, risqué ballet dancer, coupled with dark and ambiguous silhouettes that find Belly narrating the plot of this twisted recital.

His newest album, Another Day in Paradise, looks to propel him to the top of modern day rap conversations. – Hip Hop DX

It’s Belly’s overall progression as an artist that will shatter all expectations. – VIBE

Belly is more than just a songwriter behind the scenes. – Billboard

Those unfamiliar with the Roc Nation signee will get their first taste of him with this new project, but the Canadian MC is no newbie. Now it’s his time to shine. – XXL

“Ballerina” is taken from Belly’s Another Day in Paradise mixtape. The project features Belly’s masterful songwriting smarts and signature dark production, with features by Lil Wayne, Travi$ Scott, Juicy J, Wacka Flocka, B-Real and Starrah. Up next, Belly is prepping his long-awaited first studio album, which is set for an early 2017 release on RocNation.

About Belly

Over the past several years, Belly has quickly made a name for himself as one of the most exciting and promising rising artists. Belly is a recording artist and songwriter/producer whose discography outside of his own projects includes penned records for a wide variety of A-list musical acts. He signed to Roc Nation and unveiled 2015’s Up For Days, spawning the RIAA Gold-certified hit, “Might Not” [feat. The Weeknd], which went #1 at Rhythm Radio and properly introduced Belly to North American audiences.

Most recently, Belly co-wrote Beyoncé’s “6 Inch” featuring The Weeknd. The song is taken from her critically lauded visual album Lemonade, which was recently nominated for four Emmy awards. Belly himself was just honored with the “Songwriter of The Year” award at the 2016 SOCAN (Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada) Awards for his significant and outstanding contributions to popular music over the past year. These incredible works have paved the way for 2016’s Another Day In Paradise. A dark, dynamic, and definitive collection, the album showcases his clever wordplay and vivid lyricism alongside young luminaries like Travis Scott on “Money Go” and Kehlani on “You” as well as legends such as B-Real during the closer “Angels & Demons” and Lil Wayne on “Barely Sober.” Throughout, he distinguishes himself as poignant, poetic, and powerful voice.
