New Belly with YG!

“Produced by L.A. powerhouse DJ Mustard, “4 Days” sees BELLY adopt a sizzling West Coast swag. He pops off with scorching bars and locks into a lyrical crossfire with multiplatinum 21st century Cali king YG. Together, they turn up with the kind of heat that classic collabs are made of, bringing together “The 6” and South Central like never before.

Additionally, the music video taps into throwback energy and style from the golden age of MTV in the early 2000s with foreign cars, models, fur, and a whole lot of bling.

It’s an early look at what’s to come from BELLY’s forthcoming new project, Midnight Zone, due out later this year. “Man Listen,” [hit the jump] previously released via XO/Roc Nation/Republic last year will also be on the album.”

[MP3] Eric Bellinger Claps Back at Tory Lanez (plus Two Bonus Tracks….)

T.dot, we gon’ let this stand??! Here’s the background according to his press team for those not keeping score

When it comes to tag lines Canadian rapper, Tory Lanez looked to Compton native, Eric Bellinger for what some may call inspiration yet others would say he blatantly stole. Eric Bellinger took to Instagram a year ago to address his concern about another artist stealing his tag line. “It’s like an artist saying We the Best and they not Khalid!” explains Bellinger.

Tory Lanez definitely should’ve seen this coming. A few weeks ago Lanez recently released his album “MEMORIES DON’T DIE”, and on the record titled “Hate To Say” he listed a clear description of Bellinger saying:

“R&B niggas with Sisqó haircuts, wildin’ and stylin’
They dissin’, guess they just tryna go viral, I feel ’em
This your favorite song, this gon’ be your favorite song
‘Cept when I say it, it’s really the people’s favorite song
You did a vid diss tryna flex the i8, I could’ve flexed a ‘Rari or Wraith, but nigga, I ain’t”
As if the diss record wasn’t enough, weeks proceeding the release of Hate to Say, Lanez continually bashed Eric Bellinger’s name when multiple people confronted him about the lyrics.

Of course Bellinger didn’t take lightly to the insults and decided to respond with a record appropriate for the insult titled “Yikes.” Bellinger drops an E-Mix over the Lanez ”Hate To Say” beat which Eric explains Tory also stole in the E-Mix. Unlike Lanez, Eric had no problem letting Tory and the world know exactly who is being referenced in the record.

“Your only talent is mimicking anyone that’s talented”, “Tory, when will it stop?”

Yikes indeed!
