People Hear What They See, the new full length LP from Oddisee on Mello Music Group, has proven just that. “The Need Superficial†doesn’t necessarily sound like a contemporary hip-hop song until Oddisee starts rapping a few bars in. Not content to merely coast along the smooth and funky concoction he’s brewed up, Oddisee drops seamless bars that examine his dealing with past relationships and the pitfalls along the way.
Oddisee’s the rare complete package that brings substance along with innovative, classic music. The creatives over at Google seem to agree. In the unveiling of the Nexus Q, a new Google streaming media player, the hosts chose “The Need Superficial†as the song to demo their new gadget. Great minds think alike.
