Cedric “Legacy City” Bellamy is transforming the independent music and arts industry through his company, StreetLigion Productions LLC. As CEO, Bellamy has created a powerful ecosystem where independent artists can thrive without traditional industry constraints.
The company’s twin platforms—StreetLigion Nation Radio and StreetLigion Nation TV—have become crucial vehicles for independent talent. The radio station exclusively broadcasts music from independent artists, creating opportunities for both newcomers and established musicians outside the mainstream label system. Meanwhile, the television platform, available on Roku, offers diverse content including films, comedy, poetry, and music—providing independent creators with significant visibility.
Bellamy’s impact on the arts community earned him the Lifetime Achievement Award from President Joe Biden in 2024, recognizing his community service, military contributions, and cultural innovation. His influence is reflected in his presence across industry platforms like Soundcharts and Muso.ai, where he champions artist ownership of both creative direction and financial returns.
As an artist himself, Bellamy has achieved remarkable success, with multiple albums surpassing one million streams on iTunes. His 2024 album “Standing on Business” reached #1 on U.S. iTunes charts, while “The Book of Uriah” received an Album of the Year nomination at the S.E.A. Awards alongside Grammy-winner Killer Mike. His production credits span genres including country, R&B, hip-hop, poetry, and comedy, each project exceeding the million-stream benchmark.
Beyond music and media, Bellamy is investing in future generations through Urban Mind Media, a program developed with partners Adrianne House and Micky Suites. The initiative empowers youth through music production, filmmaking, and journalism while teaching African-American contributions to entertainment history. Financial literacy is a cornerstone of this program, and Bellamy is actively working to establish a dedicated art school for community youth.
Bellamy’s musical style merges contemporary production techniques with classic hip-hop elements, creating an emotionally resonant and distinctive sound. His catalog includes standout tracks like “Don’t Pass Me By,” “Perfect Timing,” and “Before You Go,” showcasing his storytelling abilities and versatility.
His work has been recognized by media outlets including The Hype Magazine and Fox San Antonio, solidifying his reputation as an innovative force in independent media.
Through StreetLigion Productions LLC, Bellamy continues to demonstrate that artistic power belongs to creators. As he expands his company into a leading independent mass media enterprise in 2025, his vision remains clear: to establish StreetLigion as the definitive home for independent artists worldwide.
