In SIMMY’s latest single, “EASYSTAR,” we find ourselves immersed in a soul-stirring narrative of transformation and adaptation. SIMMY, the enigmatic artist known for his eclectic fusion of hip hop and alternative rock, unveils a poignant chapter in his musical journey, tracing the footsteps from his Italian hometown to the bustling streets of South London, and we exclusively premiere ‘EASYSTAR’ here at Music Crowns.
With a career trajectory as dynamic as his sound, SIMMY’s emergence into the spotlight has been nothing short of extraordinary. Following the success of his collaboration on “Free My People” alongside luminaries Greentea Peng and Kid Cruise, which graced the soundtracks of FIFA 22 and Netflix’s Top Boy series, SIMMY now sets his sights on new horizons with “EASYSTAR” as a prelude to his forthcoming EP, “HELLO WORLD.”
Crafted under the expert guidance of creative director Morgan Benjamin, “EASYSTAR” encapsulates the essence of SIMMY’s introspection and artistic evolution. Set against a backdrop of Lo-fi instrumentation, the track serves as a hauntingly beautiful ode to the bittersweet emotions of leaving behind familial ties and embracing the unknown in a foreign land.
He says “It’s about those initial feelings I experienced when I made the leap from Italy to London after school. The uncertainty, the unfamiliarity—it was daunting yet liberating. ‘EASYSTAR’ is my attempt to encapsulate that blend of fear and excitement, ultimately finding solace in the journey itself.”
From the evocative indie-rock undertones to the hypnotic reggae-infused rhythms that crescendo towards the song’s conclusion, each note serves as a testament to SIMMY’s boundless creativity and sonic versatility.
As we eagerly anticipate the release of his second EP, “HELLO WORLD,” “EASYSTAR” serves as a tantalizing glimpse into SIMMY’s artistic vision—a vision that transcends borders and resonates deeply with listeners worldwide. With its soul-stirring melodies and introspective lyricism, SIMMY invites us to embark on a transformative journey, where every chord strikes a chord within our hearts, reminding us of the beauty found in embracing life’s myriad uncertainties.
