Pasadena Ca, artist A. Bellez does not shy away from his obligation to the craft. Instead of “dumbing it down” in order to be easily accepted, or staying too true to form to the point where the newer generation of listener can’t relate, he finds the perfect balance. By blending incredible rhyme schemes with equally incredible instrumentation, A. Bellez brings the essence of rap music into the future. There was Rakim & Big Daddy Kane. Then there was BIG, Pac, Hov, & Nas. Only history will tell who the torchbearers of this generation will be—but it’s sound strategy to bet that A. Bellez will be mentioned among the future greats.
The new visual “Catch Me” paired with “4.1.Minute” is legendary. True hip-hop heads will instantly recognize the separation between A. Bellez and the hordes of those other rising rappers who are far less creatively, and lyrically, inclined. Enjoy!
