Editor's note

Belly, the Toronto rapper who works with The Weeknd

A songwriter and collaborator whose albums 'Immigrant' and 'See You Next Wednesday' trace a path from early radio play to his own lane.

For his collaborative side, 'Might Not' is the obvious pick. But 'Diamond Rib Cage' or 'Immigrant' give you a better sense of his own voice.

He's not just a featured voice. Songs like 'Might Not' and 'What You Want' with The Weeknd helped shape a certain moody, nocturnal sound in the mid-2010s. His own track 'Immigrant' with M.I.A. and Meek Mill shows a different, more pointed side. And 'Better Believe' with Young Thug and The Weeknd proves he can hold his own in heavyweight company.

He started getting radio play around 2015 with the EP 'Up for Days'. After some talk of an amicable split from The Weeknd's crew in 2016, he put out 'Immigrant' in 2018 and 'See You Next Wednesday' in 2021. The songs suggest a move from collaborative hits toward his own defined space.
