XO’s Belly has been getting some traction in the States lately with his mixtape ‘Up For Days’. Last month he released this chilling visual for “Came From Nothing”. It depicts another side of Ottawa that isn’t on the tourist guide. ‘Up For Days’ is still available to stream on soundcloud.

Belly and Travis Scott create a cryptic dream state on their “White Girls” visual. If you have yet to listen to Belly’s newest project “Up For Days,” then not only are you slacking on what’s important, but your taste in Hip-Hop (and music in general) is wildly flawed. Banter aside, “White Girls” is a re-imaginative, drug-like parallel that’s shot as an artistic correlation between actual white woman and the covert, symbolic context of the record’s nuance. Travis Scott’s ability to make arguably the best hook’s in Hip-Hop, coupled with Belly’s darker, slow-flowed, gritty concepts are why this visual (along with everything else these two do) is re-inventing the way we view the culture.

Canada’s Belly drops off his new mixtape Up For Days en route to making his second introduction to the masses. The XO affiliate isn’t a new artist. He has been around since the early 2000s, where he had a buzz worthy single in the Ginuwine assisted and Scott Storch produced “Pressure.” However, its likely that he is a new name to most.

With guest appearances from The Weeknd, French Montana, Travi$ Scott, and Juelz Santana, Belly releases his best collection of music. Up For Days is 12 tracks deep and features the Palestine rapper laying cold rhymes over dark brooding production. Its hustler’s music at its best with “Came From Nothing,” “Might Not,” “White Girls,” and “Dealer Plated” being essential listens.

Stream Up For Days and watch the video for “Came From Nothing” below.
