"Buddah's EP Album Review"

Rising new Canadian artist Buddah Abusah comes out swinging with his self titled EP “Buddahs EP”. The trippy landscape sets a mellow high vibrational tempo that Bussah Abusah rides effortlessly. The album begins with “Green grass” where the artist shows off his wordplay and sarcasm, the concept of the song is moving to new levels. “You need a shrine I need a shrink, if I ever cross your mind then don’t blink” the lyricism shows his heightened thought process. “Too Much” comes right in with a true hippy vibe, the production creates a smooth waterfall sound wave perfect for reflection and meditation. The hook falls right into the tempo of the beat where the listener repeats the words because of the repetitive formation of the song alignment. Buddah exhibits HIP HOP at it’s finest by being himself and creating an original unique sound.

“My Show” continues the album’s groove but this time an uptempo commercial vibe fine tuning the sound into a fuller experience. The main attribute of the song is creating a movie with the scenes of life, Buddah Abusah fashions an environment where the only option is to strive. The lucid sound also reminds me of old school and new school mixtures of Gang Starr and Kendrick Lamar. Next as the compilation continues “Slow a Hippy Down” my personal favorite on the EP because of its raw lyricism and street vibe. The visual created in the mind was abstract and free-flowing, you can hear the substance spill like water after a flood, the smooth wordplay made it out to be a fluid ride.
“Paper Boy” featuring TU was another track that demands attention. Buddah Abusah shows the channeling of Danny Brown into another mind-altering sound scape that has elements of south influences mixed with midwest vibes. The point in HIP HOP is to relay feeling and expression and Buddah Abusah accomplished just that. “HomeTown Hero” is relatable to all who journeyed out to make their dream happen, the young artist expresses how sometimes the city can’t thrive together in unity and the best option is to leave in order to create a better path. This entire Ep has a powerful side to it that can be innovative when united with the right visuals. The album concludes with the smooth epic vibes of “Escarpment” Buddah Abusah saved the best for last as the sample amplifies the Canadian artist’s wordplay. This album is recommended to HIPHOP enthusiast through our network. Follow Buddah Abusah for new music and updates.

"Is the grass greener on the other side? Buddah Abusah discusses his new track & outlook on life"

Hamilton, ON – Fresh off the release of Buddah’s EP, Hamilton artist Buddah Abusah (formerly of the now disbanded Bo$ Clique crew) recently released a brand new video for his track “Green Grass.”

Produced by Donato Beats, “Green Grass” is a good vibes summer song about maturing, growing, reprioritizing, and recognizing your own potential. Buddah is entering a new phase of life with a huge focus on his family. And with the addition of his daughter into his world, he’s starting to see the world around him much clearer.

The video maintains a simple aesthetic as a nod to the importance of simple happiness. It doesn’t actually take much to achieve happiness, despite the complexity of society and how we’re led to believe happiness is achieved. Buddah’s got it figured out, though. And this is what he’s preaching. Check the Push Media directed video below, and scope our in-depth interview with Buddah after the jump.

Q&A: Buddah Abusah
HipHopCanada: Start off by telling me what this track means to you on a personal level.

Buddah Abusah: Well I feel I have grown. I know when I have taken another or higher step in life, I feel in it. I feel wiser, stronger, more observant, understanding and more attentive. That is what this vibe is. It’s about being able to find a way to make your yellow patch of grass green again. Understanding and realizing my focuses and what’s important in my world only. Believe in myself – for real, for real – and take the next step I see myself taking.

HipHopCanada: I feel like the idea of “Green Grass” represents a shift for you, and a new beginning … they say the grass is greener on the other side, and you’re on the green grass now. Talk to me about how you got there.

Buddah Abusah: Getting there… I still feel like I’m trying to get “there.” But that’s all through life. Life is crazy. The amount of shit an individual goes through no matter what their experience is, is something I personally will never take lightly or for granted… nor should anyone else. My life experience made me who I am; to understand on taking the right path that can benefit me and those I care and love for. To be honest this wasn’t like a two-month ago thing and then… “Hey! I’m on some green crazy, n**ga! I’m straight!” Naw. Like this is years of ups and downs like anyone else, and really understanding what God is putting in front of me. Where I am now I truly feel I am 100 % ready to take that scary step most are afraid of. Stepping out of that comfort zone and letting people know like, “Yo, I got dope hippie vibes, I can rap too!” type sh*t. I really do feel I have stepped it up and music-wise I have something no one else in my city does. Took a while to get here and so much more God gave me to do in my life.

HipHopCanada: What does the “Green Grass” look like for you? What are the things in your life right now that you are hopeful and optimistic about?

Buddah Abusah: Great questions! Well “Green Grass” isn’t necessarily a visual thing, but an emotional thing. A feeling. Like in the hook I mention, “New trip/ New car moves fast” and “New chick/ Nice tits/ Bubbled ass!” Yes, you can obviously visualize it. But why I’m saying it is that fresh feeling you get. I have been getting anxiety lately. Sometimes it has me tripping to be real. But it’s all because of how I crave the feeling I desire and want so bad. Not for materialistic things… but what I am soul searching for. So that’s MY “Green Grass”. I wonder if others would think of it that way..? I’m hopeful for my new family and my path in music. My daughter gave me something I didn’t even know that was in me, and now she got me rapping my ass off. Made me realize that maybe I have something more than what I thought. Maybe I have potential to do something serious and fun with my life; be able to give all to her and those around me. Like don’t get me wrong… I always believed in myself. But… like… until you have a kid of your own, you wouldn’t understand what I mean exactly. But my daughter and my lady have me on some next sh*t now and they give me hope. Shout out my f**kng hippies Empire MGMT, Push Media and Zeek! A.P.E gangin’ all day!

HipHopCanada: What are some of the new beginnings you are entering?

Buddah Abusah: New beginnings for me is becoming a solidified artist in Canada, but with a world-wide sound. I understand me more and more, and believing in myself more and more, day by day. And this on its own is new for me. My management team and I are putting in work. See… a lot of people say they believe in me and they support but I don’t see their asses at one single show or post one single song unless I DM them to. But now being on some new hippie vibes people really messing with, it’s new for me for people to really just fall into low-key. One homie pulled that sh*t on me and I haven’t seen him in years! Didn’t think he gave a damn?!?

HipHopCanada: What was your vision for this video, and what is the significance of the locations you shot this at?

Buddah Abusah: To be honest, my homie Ken of Push Media is the genius behind this video. Last day in the studio finishing off this record and the rest of the EP [and] he already had ideas for it and spots. I’m the type of dude that when I work with you, I believe in your craft and let you create your way. I don’t dictate but will critique when needed. Shot in the city on west side and downtown Hamilton and in Toronto were I record in Liberty Village. The Toronto scene is big for me because that’s where things in my music career started to change.

HipHopCanada: Visually, this video is very simple. And I like how that mirrors this idea of “Green Grass” and how happiness is such a simple concept.

Buddah Abusah: My music and visuals are representing who I am, as well. I am a simple person yet complex. My music – I feel – is easy to understand but is rich with substance and deeper meanings at times. I classify myself as the “modern day hippie”, which you’ll learn and grow with as time goes. Stepping to a new beginning is simple but doesn’t mean it’s going to easy. That shit is called life, my hippie! Happiness is simple, but how society and the system is ran makes us believe it’s hard to achieve in simple ways. I know my life will be one hell of a journey but happiness comes first.

HipHopCanada: What’s it been like for you since Bos Clique disbanded? Working on music as a solo artist is much different from working on music as a crew.

Buddah Abusah: I’ve been solo before so this is nothing new. I’ve been in a collective before as well, so that was nothing new either. Though I was the one to leave and pursue on my own, I think it was the best decision I’ve made musically. Working with a group is great and full of fun times, because you have others involved in it with you. But the type of person I am, personally I can’t work with people really like that. I like being in control 100% of my music… unless a feature. But f**k it… even then. Consistently having to get approval was annoying as shit, to be real with you. Plus other reasons that are not necessary to mention as well. Working solo I love because I’m as creative and as open as I want to be, and can express how I want to. I’m that type of artist. I have my own lane, my own sound; I have my own vision. - Sarah Jay

"INTERVIEW WITH BUDDAH ABUSAH"

Happy Monday, or should I say happy #MusicMonday?!

This past week, I caught up with Hamilton rapper Buddah Abusah ahead of the release of his single "Surfin' Surf". Check out our Q&A below:

What is the inspiration behind your single?
The inspiration of Surfin’ Surf is fun. I wanted to make something that I could play and really vibe to. It ended coming out perfectly because the more I got into the song the more I wanted people around me to really mess with the vibe.

How would you define success?
Success is a combination of within and were you want to be in life. Success is just another word for self-wealth to me, not about financial status. If you’re striving and doing what you love, how can you not be successful? It's inevitable for the universe to put you in the path of success to get you where you want to be because that is what is on your constant mind. You can’t be success doing what you don’t like. You may go high up in the company but if you’re not happy, you will never feel true success from within.

If you want success (not financially - that will come) do what you love.

Do you have a system that you use to achieve your goals?
The system is time. Be humble. Spread peace. Spread love.

The "Surfin' Surf" video will be out later this week, but in the meantime be sure to check out Buddah on Facebook and Instagram. - Saverina Scozzari
