MANILA—Bella Poarch and Sub Urban dropped their new song "Inferno" on Friday along with its music video, which according to the US-based social media star, is her way of retelling an ugly past.

In the music video, Poarch plays the role of her own heroine as she takes the law into her own hands when two men tried to spike her drinks. As the video unfolds, she and her accomplice, played by Sub Urban, fulfill a punishment plot seemingly hatched in hell.
