Ladi and Chilldren of Indigo come back with a song that plays like a sun-soaked, late-night cruise through America’s musical landscape. Written during an East Coast tour from Texas to New York City, "Chasing Bugattis" radiates a sense of motion, adventure, and the simple joys in life, such as carefree days spent cutting loose at Cocoa Beach, Florida.
Genre defiance is what this song does best. Southern rap grooves tangle flawlessly with bedroom lo-fi pop, balanced on the polished beats of Dago and Jay Indigo. Every layer of production comes across as purposeful yet nonchalant, achieving a richly knotted texture that’s instantly listenable and rewards repeat plays. Jo Indigo, Ladi, and Wildeflower swap lines and melodies with an easy chemistry vocally, fusing rap with singing and melodic storytelling into a seamless whole.
And at the center of it all is Ladi, whose multi-instrumental mastery radiates in every note. Nigerian-born and Texas-raised, Ladi has spent over 20 years cultivating drumming skills, in addition to 15+ years on guitar and six years across songwriting and rap. And that depth of experience isn’t just technical, but also expressive, imbuing “Chasing Bugattis” with a feeling of authenticity and joy that transcends borders and genres.
The track feels like a diary of cross-country escapades, filled with lively memories, laughter, and a surplus of wanderlust. Yet it’s never heavy-handed. It is, however, an invitation for everyone, anyone to move and vibe, and dive deep into the pleasure of chasing dreams, Bugattis or not. "Chasing Bugattis" is not only a song, it’s a road trip for your ears, courtesy of artists unafraid to go off the map, take risks, and enjoy the damn drive.
