Every female rapper likes to consider herself different from the rest and Bella Donna is no exception. However, Bella Donna’s hypnotic delivery, raspy voice, innovative and original lyricism, and eccentric style easily set her apart from other female artists and make her the exception. The name Bella Donna literally means “beautiful woman†in Italian and in English is the shortened name for “atropa belladonnaâ€, a plant that contains hallucinogenic properties that when ingested creates vivid delusions that can be fatal, thus reflecting her dual sided nature (A Beauty and a Poison). Bella isn’t scared to be the passionate, eclectic, mysterious, real, and feminine young woman that makes her unique. She aspires to show all aspects of womanhood through her music, and not just cater to the “hood†crowd, or the “conscious†or “prissy†crowds by showing that the same woman can be insanely swagged out one day, sensuous and sexy the next, independent and responsible the day after that, or all at the same time.
