On his 10th solo studio album, the Brooklyn-based underground rap vet unpacks emotional baggage and asks what—if anything—he’s willing to compromise for the sake of success.
After a highly productive decade of releases on Mello Music Group, including several studio full-lengths, beat tapes, EPs, and a live album with his backing band Good Compny, Oddisee branched out and formed his own Outer Note Label, releasing the EP Odd Cure in 2020.
