"Make no mistake: Style is paramount in Belly, a flashy, trashy look at the gangsta' life, which Hype Williams has exploited in videos for Puff Daddy, Mase, Tupac Shakur..." -- Film Journal International
When a lucrative opportunity in drug trafficking falls into their laps, a pair of childhood friends use it to build themselves an empire. Tommy and Sincere (DMX and Nas) enter a whirlwind of trouble when they involve themselves in the sales of a popular new type of narcotic. Their newfound success brings them attention not only from prospective buyers, but from all manner of unsavory characters with murder on their minds. This feature film debut from music video director Hype Williams is a stylish look into the criminal underground and the consequences of being a part of it.
