ODDISEE, PEOPLE HEAR WHAT THEY SEE

I'll be honest, I have trouble keeping up with all of Oddisee's musical projects. But I eventually always get myself caught up and marvel at what he does. Born, Amir Mohamed el Khalifa, Oddisee is a producer, MC, and rapper who has been at the center of helping to create a strong and focused hip-hop community in and round Washington DC that is referred to as the DMV Movement. For all of his efforts, People Hear What They See is considered Oddisee's true debut album. I see it more as another step in the evolution of Oddisee as an artist. On People Hear What They See, Oddissee's beats, raps, and lyrics come together in a fine way to lift up and convey his thoughts, perspectives, and social mindedness. I hope that Oddisee finally gets the national
                                                        attention that he is due and deserves.
