Fresh off his April Billboard charts debut, Pompano Beach, Florida rapper Loe Shimmy has just shared his highly-anticipated Zombieland 2.6 project, the deluxe version of March’s acclaimed Zombieland 2. The LP comes accompanied by a music video for new single “Top Is Mine”, which arrives amidst the emcee’s summer tour with Rob49 and Skilla Baby, which kicked off last week. After first emerging onto the scene in 2020, Loe Shimmy has become a mainstay in Florida hip-hop, standing out amongst his peers with his distinct croaky delivery and soulful lyricism. Since dropping his breakthrough project Z end in 2022, which was led by the Drake-approved track “Tina”, Loe Shimmy has been on a rapid ascent, collaborating with Florida mainstays like Kodak Black (“Get Away”) and Luh Tyler (“Santa” & “A Day In The Noya”). Making standout appearances on both of their albums in 2023, Loe Shimmy has been championed by his state’s heavy-hitters, steadily breaking into the mainstream with a prolific string of releases.
After a performance at Rolling Loud last year, collaborations with Veeze (“Dirty Soda Junkie”), BLP KOSHER (“Jay-Z”), and Luh Tyler (“Aretha Franklin”), as well as the Billboard-charting Zombieland 2, Loe Shimmy is making a name for himself as one of Florida’s most noteworthy young talents. Continuing his hot streak with each release by emphasizing his guttural cadence and expanding on his knack for reflective storytelling, Loe Shimmy has his eyes set on solidifying himself as an essential artist coming out of his home state’s highly-competitive rap scene. Earning him his official debut on the Billboard and Apple charts, as well as direct support from Drake on IG, Zombieland 2 was a clear-cut testament to Loe Shimmy‘s growing stature and distinctive characteristics that have set him apart from the rest of the Florida pack: a unique ability to flex while also remaining mindful of the struggles he had to overcome to get to this point.
