The Iceberg

The prolific MC, producer and musician Oddisees new album The Iceberg is a plea for humanity to dig deeper in search of understanding and common ground. The Iceberg is a distillation of stereotypical tropes in hip-hop and beyond, 12 tracks about money, sex, politics, race and religion that appear superficial until his multi-dimensional lyrics unfurl to expose the complexities of individuality and identity; how we see ourselves and how others see us. Deeply soulful, and shot through with jazz, Go-go, gospel, thick R&B and hard beats, the album is a timely, poetic statement. Oddisee has released two studio albums, several EPs, mixtapes, and instrumental albums, and has over 30 million plays on Spotify. Hes been profiled by NPR, the Washington Post, praised by Pitchfork and Stereogum, performed on NPRs Tiny Desk, Red Bull Sound Select, and at festivals including Glastonbury and Sasquatch. The Iceberg follows two releases in 2016, the Alwasta EP and the instrumentals album The Odd Tape. His 2015 full-length The Good Fight was a top five album on the iTunes Hip Hop/Rap chart and he was #5 on Billboards Next Big Sound Chart.
