"Guapdad 4000 has spent much of 2025 keeping fans engaged with a steady flow of singles and collaborations, balancing humor, wit, and technical dexterity. His latest release, "Swim," created in collaboration with MAVI, feels less like a throwaway single and more like a statement piece. Appearing on the soundtrack for the upcoming film HIM, the track adds to the project's already notable lineup while proving that both artists can command attention with cinematic scale."
"Soundtrack placements can sometimes feel like side quests in an artist's career, but "Swim" lands with enough weight to stand on its own. Following the same energy as Tierra Whack's contribution "Tip Toe," the track leans into a dramatic, trap-inspired sound. Built around soaring vocal samples, orchestral layers, and pounding bass kicks, the beat creates a sense of urgency that feels tailor-made for both movie theaters and headphones."
"True to form, Guapdad injects his verses with the charisma and comedic edge that have become his signature. He flips Jay-Z 's iconic "99 Problems" into a sly punchline while shifting his delivery to match the track's evolving energy. The result is a performance that balances levity with lyrical dexterity, showcasing why Guapdad continues to be one of the most unpredictable and entertaining voices in hip-hop today."
