Swiss beatmaker crafts a soulful hip-hop remix for Imperial & K.I.N.E.T.I.K.’s collab with Oddisee.
MC/producer, Oddisee shares a new video for the single Brea from his new instrumental album The Odd Tape that comes out today on deluxe (purple & green) vinyl. Director Ryan Calavano creates a masterpiece that pays tribute to the unseen soul. Dancers Jason Ulysses & Taylor Swantek are absolutely compelling as they illuminate a single day in the life of the streets […]
We got to know Olivier as the guitar player in Oddisee’s live band. Last year he dropped his first EP with Jakarta, „Ain’t cool“ was on this release. Some weeks ago Olivier and Oddisee were hanging out together and produced this remix. Oddisee added some of his signature production and added 16 bars too giving […]
The Odd Tape revolves around the rhythms of the artist’s daily life. It starts in the morning with “Alarmed,” that sounds like if Shuggie Otis did a psychedelic eye-opening cover of Nas’ “Shootouts.” It rolls through “Right Side of the Bed,” with its glitter-gold sax lines, loose drums, and sunshine-slanting-through-the-blinds keyboards. The soundtrack to Oddisee’s coffee […]
“As time goes, the scale of hip hop balance tips further and further into the ratchet space… Very few MCs these days, on the mainstream or underground levels, speak to social issues and invoke a more positive message. Oddisee, one of my favorites MCs, is one of the few that does. This track is just […]
Brooklyn-based MC and producer Oddisee drops a new single today for “Born Before Yesterday” from his upcoming new instrumental album The Odd Tape out May 13 on Mello Music Group. The track premiered today at Noisey, where Oddisee reveals the meaning behind his new release: “The Odd Tape is meant to be a “Day In The Life” piece set to Audio. Each track is the theme […]
My personal favorite song from Imperial & KINETIK’s new album is also their next single. “Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.” – Maya Angelou For ‘Travel […]
Featuring Oddisee, Mick Jenkins, Tyler the Creator, N.O.R.E., Bas, Black Milk, Kendrick Lamar and more. The I Still Love H.E.R. Show is back with another episode, blending both underground Hip Hop with mainstream Rap and showcasing some of this months best releases. Less talk, more music! 🙂
On May 13th Oddisee will release The Odd Tape, but if you call this simply an instrumental album, you might as well say the same about Bitches Brew. This is his best instrumental work since Rock Creek Park and finds the Prince Georges raised and Brooklyn-based composer bending hip-hop, soul, and jazz into singular form, tapping into that same emotional Fort Knox that animates all […]
An extremely pleasant surprise, Oddisee dropped this EP out of nowhere a couple of weeks ago. Oddisee is also ready to unveil his 2016 plan which includes a new instrumental album in May, a tour with his band Good Compny from May through July, and the heavily anticipated follow up to “The Good Fight,”an all […]
