RESPECT. Premiere: Buddha Teams Up with Bardoe for "I-95"

Making a living in this country isn’t easy. We all hope and wish for the American dream but very few succeed at getting it. Lyricist, Buddha, is very familiar with the struggles of trying to get by and waiting on better to happen. And he also understands that sometimes you have to go out and make it happen. Even if it’s the hard way.

“I-95” perfectly expresses that journey–especially for Buddha– of making the perfect living happen sometimes by doing the not so right things. But learning from all of it in the end. Bardoe adds his amazing production to the track and the beat matches the lyrics perfectly. Check out what they both had to say about “I-95” –

“The feeling of the song comes from the continual angst and push one feels in the grind for achieving and surviving. Reflecting on past experiences that make us who we are today, “I-95″ symbolized that grind for Buddha who spent many trips up and down the famous highway doing ‘missions’ in pursuit of a dollar and retrieving some of the finest herbs and other things that accelerate and amplify the times and vibes of the day. VA-NYC classic hip hop samples, hard hitting beats, and introspective rhymes culminate this Buddha classic.” – Buddha x Bardoe
