Oddisee Questions People’s Judgement on “Like Really”

Rapper/producer Oddisee is dropping his new album The Iceberg next month on Feb. 24. Just like his first single, "Things,"  Oddisee has a penchant to make soulful, fun records while also dropping knowledge and thought provoking lyrics.

Today (Jan. 24), the Brooklyn-via-D.C. spitta releases "Like Really," which follows the same formula. The track touches on our country's current political climate yet sounds like it was made by your favorite soul artist.

“How you gonna make us great when we were never really that amazing/Take it back what, I don’t find hanging black lives entertaining/How do you police the streets of a neighborhood you do not engage in/Why a brother get three for a sack while your brother go free for a raping,” he raps.

For Oddisee fans, you can catch him on Jan. 27 where he will host a full rehearsal with his band Good Compny in his hometown of Washington, D.C.. The rehearsal is open to the public at St. Stephen's Church. For the West Coast hip-hop heads you can peep him in L.A. on Feb. 3, where he will perform at the First Friday’s series at the Natural History Museum. His three-month international tour next month, peep the dates and bump "Like Really" below.
