DMV rapper/producer Oddisee has been gaining major traction from national publications and rightfully so. His talented flow and ear for great beats are what make him special. Tonight, Oddisee is playing his first show with his new band, as they prepare for a full global tour in the fall. “Paralyzed,” today’s song of the day, is a jam off Oddisee’s latest release Odd Renditions Vol. 001. The album takes other tunes like Metronomy and Marvin Gaye and warps them with Oddisee’s flows blending with the source material. “Paralyzed” takes a short vocal line from Bon Iver’s “Re: Stacks” mixing it with a piano driven beat and Oddisee’s expert rhymes.

Oddisee plays tonight at Black Cat opening up for Grupo Fantasma. Tickets are 15 in advance/ $18 at the door.
