<p>Buddy Lofton is a young hip-hop artists hailing from Long Island, NY. He&#8217;s racked up thousands of plays on Soundcloud and Youtube and has even performed at SXSW. His newest release is called &#8220;Dorothy&#8221; and has a bit of acting (the actors are actually really great and convincing) before the song starts rolling. Buddy Lofton comes off as a natural performer and great lyricist. We sat down with him to ask a couple questions about the video and about his SXSW experience.</p>
<p>RTP: What inspired you to write the song &#8220;Dorothy?&#8221;</p>
<p>BL: &#8220;I feel like strip clubs are the new place to see if your record is hot or not<br />
and I was doing a lot of shows in that circuit so I wanted to make something fun that can rock in a strip club or even if you just a girl dancing in the mirror.&#8221;</p>

<p>RTP: You played SXSW in 2017, what was the experience like?</p>
<p>BL: &#8220;Awesome, it was def a an experience I won&#8217;t forget, one of the biggest stages I performed on, energy was great, got to network with some dope artists&#8230;looking forward to it again this year.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;His first official release in 2013 &#8220;under the influence&#8221; proves to be an underground classic while his much anticipated second release &#8220;tales from the lost world&#8221; looks to solidify his name with the greats.&#8221; &#8211; <a href="https://schedule.sxsw.com/2017/artists/16231">SXSW Festival Page</a></p></blockquote>

He&#8217;s also dropping a project called &#8220;No Recess&#8221; soon and &#8220;<a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/2R18EtVlnWYR9pb1EZ3uvQ?si=MAe-1jOmRqGuFBByRQrwmw">Cold Turkey</a>&#8221; is available now.</p>
