![]() Buddy’s youthful, fresh and fun approach to creating a new flavor of hip-hop is reflected through “Awesome Awesome” with its swinging, stomping beats and slick word play. Buddy eventually caught the attention of Pharrell, who mentored his growing skill and consequently produced his debut track “Awesome Awesome” with the Neptunes. Buddy ignited a fire for success citing Kanye West and Pharrell as early influences and perked the ears of DJ Casanova who helped him cultivate and refine his style. Battling it out in the LA entertainment scene, he performed at a myriad of industry showcases at the budding age of 11 and spent a brief time writing and performing in a rap group. Opting to forsake adversity, Buddy committed to utilizing music and the arts as an opportunity to channel his creativity and pursue his rap dreams. It’s got a really cool structure.Also known by his full name Simmie Sims, is a 17 year old spitfire from Compton ready to win over ears of a new generation of hip-hop enthusiasts. The new antidepressants I’m on work wonders. I’ve been having a lot of the same feelings as him recently it seems. The production is spaced out, and I like Buddy’s mellow vocals. Find Me 2 is a sequel to a song that appeared on an EP that Buddy did with Kaytranada last year. The Migos reference at the end of the second verse was cool. This album has a lot of production value. Khalid’s vocals on Trippin’s hook are really great. The vocals on the hook sound good, and I love the percussion on this track. Young is pretty much about how life just gets harder as you grow older and gain more responsibilities. The production on this album is really great. I’m in & out, in & out, strokin’ you up and down, all around I be eatin’ you out, right here on the couch at your mama houseĮverybody sleep, we should quiet it down, we a lil bit loud It’s hard to talk with your pussy in my mouth It’s about sex, so I didn’t really care for the subject matter. Speechless is a pretty good song, but it’s definitely not one of my favorites. The hook is catchier than a motherfucker. Again, Buddy isn’t really rapping, but he sounds really good singing. It’s definitely one of the more relatable songs on the album. He’s not really rapping on this track, but his singing sounds really good. It’s actually gonna be pretty hard for me to choose a favorite song from this project. I can picture myself driving through Vice City listening to this. The beat sounds like it’s inspired by 80’s music. I think Trouble on Central was the first single released from this album. Buddy’s flow on the second verse was really nice too. ![]() I love the repetition of the word “shameless” in the hook, and the production is really good. The song is a little over 4 minutes in length, but it doesn’t really sound that long. ![]() I like the hook, and the female background vocals that come in towards the end of the song sound pretty good. The first verse wasn’t that impressive lyrically, but Buddy sounds good. The jazzy production on the first song is really nice.
