Buddy and Blxst brought their sultry new single “Wait Too Long” to the Tonight Show stage on Monday (March 28) and gave a smooth performance of the track as the Obsidian-directed music video played in the background. The single is off Buddy’s latest release Superghetto which dropped on Friday (March 25).
The first single to emerge off Superghetto, Buddy dropped his highly-anticipated sophomore effort in its entirety on Friday, which features additional appearances from Tinashe, T-Pain, and Ari Lennox. As previously mentioned, “Wait Too Long” was also given the visual treatment, with the Obsidian-directed video following both artists as they struggle to recover from a massive party while Buddy navigates a romantic entanglement with a woman he’s pursuing.
“It’s more about the essence [of] growing up in the hood,” Buddy said of Superghetto during an interview with Apple Music 1. “I’m from there, so it’s in me not on me and I take it everywhere I go. Everyone else just has to conform to the energy I’m bringing to the table. That’s what the album sounds like. My experience, from my perspective… the beat selection…its a bunch of different flows and cadences.”
Superghetto comes after 2018’s Harlan & Alondra, which featured appearances from Ty Dolla $ign, A$AP Ferg, Guapdad 4000, Snoop Dogg and Khalid. He followed up the project with a deluxe version in 2019, which featured four new tracks including “Cubicle” with 03 Greedo and a Thundercat and Flying Lotus-produced track called “Link Up,” featuring Kent Jamz, Guapdad 4000, Bas, J.I.D and Ari Lennox.
