Bella The Missing Link BiographyIn a recent Scratch Magazine article, it was declared, “Female emcees are becoming and endangered species.” Not according to Louisiana born, Cleveland raised newcomer BELLA, with her high-quality versatile lyrics mixed with fresh banging beats influenced by both the east and west coasts .While most females on the mic get caught in either using only sex tales for expression, or lose their feminine energy by attempting to be harder than their male counterparts, BELLA’s style comes off as a classy mature woman who can party with the best of them, but still clever and skilled enough to expand her lyrical content to cover topics about the struggles of life, relationships, personal growth, and world affairs. Think the 2007 version of a Queen Latifah, combined with the sassiness of Left Eye, and the sexiness of Eve. Put all this together and you have BELLA, a female with substance, dept, and an infectious personality and voice.BELLA first touched the stage in Cleveland as a model for local TV shows, print ads and state beauty pageants. In 2001, as the female voice for Universal rap group 216, BELLA gained experience opening major concerts across the US for people like 50 Cent, Nelly, and BET’s Black College tour. BELLA soaked up exclusive game and enjoyed the unique opportunity to also work inside the studio with super producers like Wyclef Jean and Scott Storch. Building off this experience, BELLA began blazing local mixtapes in Cleveland in association with 107.9fm, collaborating with Big Keyz from Money Tree Entertainment, Phatty Banks, and lighting up the streets in Cleveland, Detroit, Philly, and ATL with songs like “Do What it Do” and “Bubble Booty.”The Missing Link, BELLA’s first solo album, is just that- what’s missing in the world of rap right now. From her first single “YES” which demonstrates how hot her lyrical prowess can be , to inspirational songs like “Running Away,” and personal testimonies like “My Own 2 , BELLA is not only destroying the stereotype that female emcees are becoming extinct, but she is also setting a new level of what a woman can do in the world of Hip Hop.
