Hailing from Oceanside, California, Obed Padilla is a rapper, singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist with a style all his own.
Padilla just dropped a playful, genre-blending single called “Broncos Y Benzes,” fusing ’90s-inspired hip-hop production with an enigmatic performance.
Padilla weaves effortlessly between Spanish and English, delivering an intoxicating rap flow that grabs you from the very first second.
The chorus is irresistibly catchy and inviting, with the friendly line: “She brought friends, I brought friends, we got friends, we all friends, broncos and benzes.”
Coming in at just 2 minutes and 22 seconds, the track does a great job of fusing hip-hop, chill-hop with a trippy atmosphere that is hard not to get sucked in.
It’s refreshing to hear an artist so unapologetically himself, unafraid to break from structure or fit into a single mold. Padilla clearly sounds like he’s having fun and staying true to who he is—and that’s the mark of any truly great artist: showing up exactly as they are.
A must-listen for anyone craving a track to drive to, party to, or just vibe out and have a good time.
