Compared to New York, Los Angeles, and Atlanta, Indianapolis isn’t exactly one of the most-repped cities on the hip-hop map.  As is the case with most Midwestern cities, Indy seems to be content with its current status. Nap-Town native son, Hum.V, however, whose appropriately titled record, Simple Man, has received increasingly heavy rotation throughout his hometown, might begin to change that perception.  While other rappers have the big money, luxury cars, jewlery, and women, Hum.V is content with his health, family, and friends to support him.  Simply put:  he’s grateful for everything he has.  Produced by Corey Miller, Simple Man reassures hip-hop listeners not to feel left out because of a lack of riches; when everything’s put into perspective, life is damn good.

Genre-blending is what makes music cool! Hum.V is the future baby! 1. I'm a Midwesterner 2. I'm not too rich (matter of fact, I still live in my apartment), 3. I'm happy with my surroundings. This is my new theme song, and deserves all the airplay it gets-and then some!

Charm Parker, I respect your opinion here-but I just gotta throw in mine to even it out.

Charm Parker, nothing against you but even though this isn't your music, how could you rate it a one. This songs the @*#$!. I've heard it a week ago. This guy deserves props.

This is a cool track. Not really something I can connect with musically, but his lyrics are thoughtful. I dig it.

Oh to answer your questions I rated it a 1 one not because I did not like that he combined country and rap but because of HOW he combined them. To me, the beat is so distratingly annoying that it drowns out anything productive that he might have said. And the hook is also very agitating to me. To me.... a 1 star rating is for a song that I would NEVER want to hear again. And since I would never like to hear this again.... Its a 1. I'm glad everyone responded to my comment without out insulting me though =)

ehhh i agree w/ cham on this 1... im not diggin this really @ all 2 be blunt... i mean, the biggest dissappointment 2 me was waiting & waiting & waiting on the main chorus 2 roll around so i could see what he did w/ lynard skynard's chorus for the original song & it wasnt there... i was really shocked that he wouldnt use that.. idk tho. i mean he has some talent, but this song could have been alot better if someone else would have produced it & someone else would have rapped it. so this song would be better if it was a completely different song. imma be nice & give it a 2, but in my book, it doesnt even deserve that. sorry to hate, but its how i feel.

Hum.V has a very unique delivery and vocal tone, so its very possible that despite what he is saying, people might not like to hear it. Personally, he is refreshing. Great lyrics, good message and an entertaining delivery.

Props to my Midwest brethren.

I'm really liking this song! his flow is good and fits the production. Production is great, background music is sweet and catchy. The hook is the part I like more! This track is similar to many I usually listen to. 3,5

Oh I see Charm Parker. I was just asking, we all have different opinions and I respect that. Royalty Of NY, I agree with you! I've also done some research on him. I read his bio, looked on his myspace, etc and he's done better stuff but this track is still great.

This is a classic. A great blend of the two genre's. There was thought behind the lyrics, and rings true to the artist if you look at the back ground of Hum.V

This guy is gonna blow up.
