BUCCWEET  (October 2004) | Written By: Lil Jay for Westcoast2k

      Here is a little introduction to Wolfpac Records' newest addition. He goes by the name of Buccweet a. k. a. Tha Animal. By age 15 he had credits that included accomplished producer and DJ to add to his resume.

Pulled from his San Fernando Valley and pushed to the forefront of the industry, Buccweet is solely responsible for the fire production on his debut album, in its entirety. That alone, puts this newcomer in an extremely prestigious class. Tha Animal credits his production to have been most influenced by Dr. Dre. "Dre’s the #1 of all time for bangin’ production. Timberland for his drum and song programming, and (DJ) Premier is one of a kind when it comes to sampling techniques." Being born and raised in "the 818", as Buccweet passionately refers to his stomping grounds as, has resulted in representin’ the city in almost every song.

When asked to briefly tell people what they can expect from his debut album "Life & Music", Buccweet is quick to respond with. "You can expect the truth. My lyrics, my beats, my hooks, all of the above, is the truth!". Look for this album to drop later this year.

Until then, he's staying busy by doing mixtape tracks. He just released a new mixtape called "Fix Ya Face Vol. 1". Its filled with new songs and freestyles. Here are couple tracks from the mixtape:

» Buccweet - My Hood's Crazy featuring Tha Real Cassidy & S. Bizzie
» Buccweet - These Streets featuring Lil Cee & Saleam
» Buccweet - Who They Want

He also had a good ass song called "Get Down on The Floor" on one of the Felli Fel mixtapes. His style kinda reminds me of Sly Boogy's, and Buccweet is definitely somebody to look out for in the future, whether as a rapper or producer.
