Loe Shimmy: Sometimes it just 'Ain't Enough' and the music video proves it

Hustle hard, money stack - turns out Loe Shimmy knows sometimes it just ‘Ain’t Enough’ and comes through with the new music video to make big points.

The Florida native goes the cinematic route with his newest release and delivers some signatures lines for the camera’s enjoyment. Tap in.

Pompano Beach, FL artist Loe Shimmy has just shared his new single “Ain’t Enough”, along with an accompanying music video. As a fundamental member of the flourishing Florida Hip-Hop scene, Loe Shimmy has quickly carved out his own lane – standing out amongst his contemporaries through his raspy voice & croaky delivery that complement his introverted bars. Fresh off of his breakthrough year with a Drake co-sign, energetic collaborations with the likes of Kodak Black & Luh Tyler, and his biggest song to date in “Fallin" (4M+ Streams), Shimmy is carefully continuing his momentum into 2023. On his new single “Ain’t Enough”, Loe Shimmy delivers a short yet pensive performance riddled with melodic flows and gruffly-delivered meditations on the state of his past and present life – “Gotta cry, I done went too deep, got french tip on her feet / I jump out the jeep, get low and creep, just like I’m Pistol Pete“, he raps. With “Ain’t Enough” serving as just the latest example, Loe Shimmy is continuing his dynamic winning streak, expanding upon his deep storytelling abilities, guttural cadence and imaginative wordplay as he solidifies himself as an essential artist coming out of Florida’s scene.

Although Loe Shimmy is fresh off of his breakthrough year in 2022 that saw him release his project Z end, the viral, reflective single “Fallin” & “Bounty” (feat. Kodak Black), he’s been carefully selective with releases this year – choosing to reserve his output to standout collaborations with his contemporaries like Kodak Black, Luh Tyler, Wizz Havinn & C Stunna. These tracks, along with his impressive string of solo releases that capture his guttural voice & tasteful diversity as an emcee, have helped cement Loe Shimmy as not only a Florida mainstay but also a key player with widespread appeal in the ever-changing Hip-Hop scene. Continuously combining his mixture of candid wordplay & eclectic beat selection, Loe Shimmy is working to set himself apart amongst the rest of his state’s booming Hip-Hop scene. This has resulted in Loe Shimmy garnering critical acclaim from the likes of The FADER, Pitchfork & more. "Ain't Enough" is the latest release in a balanced slew of singles that includes the introspective “Maybach Curtains”, “Safe Route” & “Can’t Blame Em” – with each subsequent release, Loe Shimmy is further flexing his vivid lyricism and experimenting with his straining cadences.
