Blacboy JB comes through with a new mixtape titled Simi.
After a very huge success with his hit song “Look Alive” featuring Drake, the rapper has leaped into the the spotlight. His Drake assisted “Look Alive” has already amassed eighty-eight million views. His first charting single debuted at number two on the Billboard charts, making him the fifth artist in history to earn such a milestone. Suffice it to say, BlocBoy has momentum on his side, and the future looks bright for the young artist.
In an interview with XXL, BlocBoy spoke about some of his major influences. “Three 6 Mafia, Eminem, Jay-Z, Nelly,” explains BlocBoy. “Especially ‘Over and Over,’ the joint with him and Tim McGraw. That’s my favorite joint.”
Blacboy officially released 2017 mixtapes, The Purple M&M and Who Am I 3 and while his catalog is hardly limited to those drops, the pair have since been made available on all major streaming services. If you’re interesting in diving into BlocBoy’s back catalog, check out his complete list of mixtapes below.
Who Am I (2016)
Grape Juice (2016)
Who Am I 2 (2016)
Loco (2017)
Who Am I 3 (2017)
The Purple M&M (2017)
Simi is expected to be loaded with smoldering production, most notably from Ben Billions and Tay Keith. Though BlocBoy hasn’t liberated the track-list for Simi, it’s safe to say that Drake and 21 Savage will lead the way, as they were both featured on his last two singles, “Look Alive” and “Rover 2.0,” respectively.
Currently, “Look Alive” remains active on the Hot 100, currently residing at the No. 9 spot.
