Philadelphia rapper Hood Tali’s official video for his track “Belt to Ass” is here. The song appears on his forthcoming project, ‘Murder Rate Music’ coming this fall.
“Belt to Ass” is available everywhere Friday, watch the official music video above.
In the official video directed by CjmVisuals, we see Hood Tali with his crew, flaunting stacks of money. Sci-fi visual effects flash across the group’s faces, the eerie effects matching the haunting beat. The track finds Tali zeroed in on his business and applying pressure with lyrics like, “I went to war for this / You don’t know about them dreams / N***a, this is what them trenches did.”
“Belt to Ass” follows “Lie 2 Me” and “Call the Play,” both of which received the video treatment. All three songs are set to appear on Tali’s forthcoming project, tentatively out next month. Last year saw the release of his project ‘Top 0pp,’ which includes standouts like “Dead Man!” and the title track.
With “Belt to Ass” and his forthcoming project, Tali is declaring himself to be the leader of Philly’s new drill wave. Through his music, he transcends his life circumstances and highlights his creativity. “I’m very outspoken, but I’m a very intelligent individual,” he previously told All Hip Hop. “I’m probably misunderstood until you really get around me and talk to me. Because you’ll see, I act a whole different way from what I’m perceived as on the internet.”
