Is there anything I can do to add some sound insulation.

Yes, it is called "space" or "distance". You add it by buying your own
single-family home. This is one reason people find suburbia desirable:
separation and privacy from your neighbors. Trying to change your
apartment neighbor's habits, or to insulate yourself, do not work.


If OP owned the apartment, he could probably deal with the problem
fairly effectivly with soundproofing. Since he doesn't, he can't.
Trying to get the neighbor to change is a good idea only if you
enjoy feuding, or are at least very good at it. That leaves
moving to an apartment that isn't made of paper mache;
getting a white-noise-generator and learning to live with it;
or smuggling 5 kilos of coke into the guys rooms when he's not
there, and calling the cops.
