Oddisee

Belong to the World

Brandon Backhaus | August 19, 2015

There is something about Oddisee that makes him more than a rapper to me. Maybe because he's also one of the most gifted producers in the multiverse. But damn, I don't know which I love more. It's like sitting at the table and there's gumbo AND sushi!? HOW DO YOU CHOOSE? 

The thing is you don't have to. Take that yellow yail and drown it in that roux, bruh! C'est bon! 

With Oddissee you get both worlds. You literally have your cake and get to PLAY IT LOUD ON SUNDAY MORNING WHILE YOU MAKE CINNAMON TOAST FOR YOUR KIDS. 

There're layers and layers and layers to unpack: the disconnect, the belonging, the personal, the universal, the jazz, the knocks, STRAWBERRY FILLING! 

Plus this video was shot right here in my home-alopolis of Los fucking Angeles. Come visit me. No really. 

You can download this track for free here. And if you haven't copped Oddisee's The Good Fight you're losing it.
