If you’ve heard a cell phone ring in the past month, you are probably familiar with Mims. The New York rapper scored a smash hit with “This Is Why I’m Hot,” a catchy little thing with a cool, minimalist beat and some goofy charm. Nothing else on Mims’ debut, Music Is My Savior, is as instantly gratifying as “Hot.” But the beats keep things moving: “Cop It” traffics in big, nickel-plated bounce, and “Big Black Train” is another bare-bones banger. Mims can’t carry a whole album, and Savior is long on quasi-Southern junk rhymes about Mims’ general excellence and panty-melting suaveness. Kick back and enjoy it for what it's worth.
