(LOS ANGELES, CA) June 21, 2024 – Eric Bellinger is kicking off a summer of love with a new, intimate take on his critically acclaimed album, The Rebirth 3. The just-released acoustic version of the album showcases a beautiful contrast to the high-level modern production and dance-friendly tracks that have defined much of his recent work. The Rebirth 3 has been a phenomenal success, amassing 22 million US streams and solidifying Bellinger’s status as a powerhouse in the R&B scene. This new acoustic version strips away the layers of production, revealing Bellinger’s raw vocal talent and the heartfelt essence of his songwriting. This release underscores his versatility as an artist, offering a softer, more intimate vibe that highlights themes of love and connection.
Coinciding with the album release, Bellinger is dropping a video for the song “Writer’s Block,” which features a stripped-down acoustic performance. The video presents Bellinger at his most vulnerable, accompanied only by a guitarist who also lends background vocals. The minimalist setup allows Bellinger’s soulful voice to shine, emphasizing the emotional depth of the track. The lyrics of “Writer’s Block” speak to the transformative power of love, describing a perfect muse whose presence inspires endless creativity: When we alone/all the love that we make turn into a song/every album I create could never go wrong/it keeps going on and on/behind every #1/ is my number one. Not one to rest, even after creating a masterpiece, Bellinger is rolling out three more acoustic videos in the coming weeks, “All for Me,” “La Perla,” and “Gang Slide.” |
