In the Midwest, everything is earned including your rep in the streets. There are no handouts, but despite those tough obstacles Gelati Zoe seems to be flourishing and beating the odds.

Flanked by members of his crew armed with straps and stacks, Gelati Zoe hows fans what all the hype is about in his new video for “Couldn’t Help It”. Not scared to flaunt their money Gelati and his crew can be seen getting animated as neon colors fly across the screen accentuating their movements.

“I’m just trying to keep dropping music after music from the project is don. I’m getting a real good response so I gottta keep going and use that drive that I got.
