However, since the start of 2025, I noticed that it began to generate more airplay in several markets. So, my team and I decided to ramp up the promotion behind it,&#8221; said Macini.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the promotional campaign has given the song a big boost, and it is getting strong airplay in the UK, the US, Africa, Europe, and the Caribbean.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s also doing well in the parties. I&#8217;ve also seen several dancers posting videos featuring themselves dancing to\u00a0<strong><em>\u2018Bellfoot\u2019<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0on TikTok,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Macini said that he recently contacted noted dancer Orville Hall to create the official\u00a0Bellfoot\u00a0dance.\u00a0 &#8220;I also plan to shoot a new video for the song featuring Orville Hall and his crew.

I have to be strategic with my promotions, but\u00a0Hurt My Feelings\u00a0is definitely going to be my next release,&#8221; said Macini. He is also working on some new projects that he plans to release later this year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Making music is my number one priority, so I am always writing and recording new music. Right now, I am working on tracks for my debut EP, which I plan to drop later this year.
