Oddisee – The Odd Tape

"The Odd Tape" by Oddisee is a melodious journey that starts with the soothing "Alarmed," defying its title with light piano notes and a cosmic electronic chorus. This beat tape, absent of Oddisee's known lyrical prowess, is a tribute to instrumental hip hop infused with a '90s essence and modern electronic flair. The album offers a diverse sonic experience, from the jazzy "Right Side of the Bed" to the harder hip hop beats of "No Sugar No Cream," showcasing Oddisee's skill in live instrumentation. "The Drawing Board" stands out as an experimental piece, while "Still Sleeping" wraps up the album with a dreamy, relaxed vibe, inviting listeners to drift through Oddisee's day once more​1​.
