Belis - Rich Man
Belis, of Charlotte, North Carolina is a rising artist and close collaborator with Neilaworld — composed of standout talent like Tommy Ice, Pollari, Kevin Kazi, and many more. It’s no doubt that Belis has some of the most unique vocals the underground has heard. Lil Aaron discovered her on the rise last year and she has since signed to a label.
To quote Jack Angell’s Pigeons & Planes interview with Belis:
“—the 19-year-old was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, a chronic, unpredictable disease of the central nervous system where the immune system attacks and damages healthy nerve tissue. Belis explains that MS affected more than just her muscles, ‘For months I was slurring everything, and it was just awful. Not being able to talk is probably the most terrifying thing ever.’”
Her latest offering titled RICH MAN produced by angelus + the martianz is a sultry but aggressive take and does an amazing job at blending what sounds like indie vocals over hard-hitting instrumentals.
