Playboy Poppy is putting his own soundtrack behind the season with the release of his new EP, Summer in the Carolinas, a project built around Southern energy, Carolina culture and the atmosphere of warm summer nights.
Released through KMC, Summer in the Carolinas gives listeners a closer look at the environment that continues to shape Poppy’s sound and creative direction. Across the project, he balances street-ready records with smoother moments and energetic production designed for everything from daytime cookouts and cruising through the city to late-night club settings.
At the center of the project is “Issa Go,” a high-energy record that immediately establishes the EP’s tone. Powered by a catchy hook, confident delivery and production made to hit at high volume, the track showcases Playboy Poppy’s charisma and ability to create music with replay value.
“Issa Go” carries the type of energy that feels tailor-made for summer. Whether it is coming through car speakers, playing at a party or setting the mood inside a club, the record gives Poppy an opportunity to show off his personality while delivering something listeners can easily add to their rotation.
But Summer in the Carolinas is more than a seasonal title.
The project is rooted in the culture and lifestyle surrounding Playboy Poppy. The Carolina influence can be heard and felt throughout the EP, from the attitude behind the music to the imagery of neighborhood streets, local clubs, backyard cookouts and humid summer nights.
Rather than simply making music for the season, Poppy uses the project to represent where he comes from and the experiences that helped shape him as an artist. That connection gives Summer in the Carolinas an identity beyond its production and hooks.
There is also a sense of ambition running through the project. Playboy Poppy sounds like an artist looking to expand his reach without losing the authenticity of his surroundings. The result is music that feels connected to home while still being accessible to listeners outside of the Carolinas.
With “Issa Go” leading the way, Playboy Poppy is positioning Summer in the Carolinas as a soundtrack for anyone looking for Southern flavor, good energy and music built for the season.
For those searching for something new to ride to, party to or add to their summer playlist, Playboy Poppy is making his case with a project inspired by the unmistakable spirit of the Carolinas.
