Some artists make music for the charts. Sammi Auto makes music for the soul.
Born Samuel Parsons on May 31st, 1991, in Ogden, Utah, Sammi Auto has always stood out—not because of flashy gimmicks or viral moments, but because of his honesty. His music feels like a journal cracked open, a window into the life of someone who’s seen pain, tasted joy, and still wakes up every day ready to fight for something better.
His newest single, “Short From Perfect” (featuring Macyn Reigh, produced by Prodbydefault), is a perfect example of that emotional transparency. The song hits different—not just because it sounds good, but because it feels real. There’s a weight to Sammi’s voice, like every bar is pulled from experience. He raps with the tone of someone who’s been knocked down, got back up, and learned something in the process.
The production is smooth and melodic, but what cuts through the most is the vulnerability. Sammi isn’t trying to be a superhero—he’s trying to be real. The song unpacks the complexity of being “almost there,” of living with flaws but still moving forward. He reflects on mistakes, growth, and the mental toll of keeping it together in a world that often feels stacked against you.
Macyn Reigh’s feature adds a beautiful contrast—soft, soulful, and aching. Together, they bring a balance that mirrors life itself: the highs and lows, the grit and grace.
Sammi Auto is part of a rare breed of artists who don’t just talk about life—they live it in their music. And while he may be short from perfect, he’s right on target when it comes to telling the truth that so many of us feel but can’t always express.
If you’ve ever felt misunderstood, overlooked, or like you’re still figuring it all out, this one’s for you.
