Collie Buddz employs a style that is strongly rooted in 1990's era conscious and dancehall style reggae, using beats and vocal techniques reminiscent of the iconic stars of that day - including Sizzla, Buju Banton, Bounty Killer and Beenie Man. The singer has attributed the defining influences on his music to lyrical clashes (such as those between Beenie Man and Bounty Killer) and dubplates, particularly those of Kilimanjaro, that were core to the sound clash culture of the 90's.
Buddz is an avid fan of Buju Banton and cites that artist's "Mr. Mention" has one of his favorite albums.
