About "Tangible Dream":
I live in a gentrified part of Brooklyn, I eat out several times a week, I travel the world sampling the best that cities across the globe have to offer. Do I live in a penthouse loft? Am I dinning in five stars restaurants? Can you only find me in the most exclusive areas? Do I own a jet? The answer to all the above is most certainly no. I'm just a regular man from Prince George's county, Maryland that figured shit out.
I discovered that I can make a career in an arena dominated by artists that sell false dreams. I realized that although the masses may not know of my body of work, it doesn't take the whole world to have the world I want. Tangible Dream is a mix-tape dedicated to the deconstruction of our traditional ideas of success & shedding light on the possibility of a sustainable rap life.
These rhymes were written in economy class seats, these beats were produced on long bus trips & these songs were recorded in airbnb apartments. All I want to do is make music for a living so that I can live to make music. The only dreams I'm interested in are the ones I can grasp. It just so happens that anything you want bad enough can be obtained. Perhaps the world may never know of my accomplishments but accomplishments they are nonetheless.

It hurts me the way he is slept on. This joint is so cold
Always respected and appreciated the candor of real hip hop artists like Oddisee. Almost 2023 and still one of my top tracks. Nothing beats listening to this coming back home late at night after a shitty day. 🙏 big love to y'all out there struggling!
2024 and this offers sanity during a night drive during these wild times of change.
In a perfect world, hip-hop like this would be played on the radio. In the mean time, thank God for youtube. Blessings to Oddisee for never dumbing it down.
Facts.

For real. Still in '24, truth
YUP💯%"AGREED"!! OK, Now that makes it ⚡2x EVEN!! I WONDER WHAT THIS COULD POSSIBLY LEAD.....2!! ⚡2xDaBeatMastahF2x⚡✌🏾&🙏🏾 HollaBack
honestly, if Kendrick and J.cole can make it to superstar status, then oddisee deserves the same, the quality of his music speaks for itself...
I think he said himself that he doesn't want to become as popular as those artist. he's happy with his life. he also produces songs and sells them to "big" artist. so he's living good
i agree, he's definitely doing good for himself and making a solid living, but you cant convince me that he would not want that kind of success, everyone who makes good music want it to reach the widest audience possible
Hey Victor are Kendrick and J. Cole some of your favorite rap artists?
I know this is pretty late, but he reaches who listens to his music. In an interview and in his music he talked about how his fans (us) think that he's under rated and should be top 10's, 5's, etc. He doesn't care about the awards, and fame. He makes music for the passion of it and could careless if some other cats think he should be in the top 20 or not.
yes he is, he's beyond.
oddisee I am an old head been a hip hop head since 85 and I have to say youre one of the best out in the last 15 yrs
im 33. maybe not as old lol but i feel you :) such a great change. peace
hip hop heads appreciate oddisee because he obviously is one
i recommend a guy called raiza biza if you dont know him- lives in New Zealand now but originally from africa. hes one of my favourite artists right now, his lp called dream something is outstanding
Yo thank you for that comment, u got me hooked on that album now. Its hard to find decent hip hop and rap music nowadays
Altair2990 my pleasure man, feel free to repay the favour if you got anybody I should know about :) Btw, as far as New Zealand rap goes, you may want to check out a group called home brew (if you're tolerant of accents that is). Same crew as raiza, some of their stuff is really dope too
ODDISEE, Clear Soul Forces & Awon & Phoniks heavily underrated.
Throw in Kooley High too.
2023 and I'm still dealing with what goes on in the back of my mind...
Oddisee is this kind of music you listen to in solitude on chilly autumn evenings
Facts
Oddisee easily makes a case for one of the most underrated Hip-Hop acts of the last decade. Fluid delivery punctuates smooth, soulful beats resulting in songs that make you notice. His carefully crafted verses speak assuredly of a man who is on a mission to uncover the disparities of being a black man in America. Something everyone has tried. But only the Oddisee gets close.
Bruh...this got me flying over an ocean of dope.
Severely underrated. I admire this man's music immensely.
No doubt fam. He has just kept evolving more and more
Those exact words "i'm trying to be a better person, everytime i get ahead, i worsen." is straight fucking truth. I'm still trying to grow and be a better person but all that i feel is that I'm just turning out to be the opposite. Word up oddisee. Tangible dreams and the good fight speaks real truth to my life. Keep it up
On g bruh, specially cuz I’m fw this really beautiful girl and I really want to get ahead so shit could be smoother in my opinion. But that aim the way ig, I got to relax and b me yk. I
why try to be "better" tho i dont think you can be better than yourself just be who you are just dont try to be someone you are not because then you will worsen
Least you're trying, bruv. That counts for something. Dunno what, but better than nothing and that HAS to mean SOMETHING.
Saying that ODDISEE is DOPE would be a understatement.
Super Dope!
Truth
S+
Not even exaggerating , this guy may be the best artist in the game. notice i didnt say rapper. i mean in the whole realm of music he is definitley in my top 5. he understands how powerful music is and he won't waste it and fill the minds of his audience with " pussy money hoes weed cash swag swag". much love from virginia beach bro.
Definatley one of a kind I like how he always kept true to his roots . Didnt change stay the same.
Well put! He's amazing!!
this man is a lyrical genius fr
Where can I send this magnificent artist my hard-earned money?
***** Thank you guys. I ended up buying two of his albums on Bandcamp. The Good Fight and Rock Creek Park. Fantastic stuff.
Caught him in Tampa not long ago, the live band playing with him this tour is just out of this world.
GodspeedHero My first thoughts also. I'm often inclined to pirate shit but I feel like this guy deserves a lot of respect. If more artists like this get their name out, pure artistic rap might yet make a come back.
GodspeedHero feel that 🔥🔥
Bob Dearing wait what??? I live in Tampa I been trying to catch his shows locally I thought Tampa was forgotten
Artists like this are who make me laugh when people want to say hip-hop is dead. Peace and Love to you and your people Oddisee. Thanks for giving the people what they need.
THere is something magical about mello music group, there is so much potential and talent but yet noone knows them
Man, I just randomly heard one of ODDISEE's songs in a video and I IMMAEDIATELY had to ask for the song name to further my research of this underrated talent. I've listened to a bunch of songs and can I just say, holy shit i've been missing out on such raw talent. Rap at it's purest and finest form. The description in the video made it all the more better. Hoping for more songs to come!
You and me both, glad to have came across this lyrically inclined boss.
i'm in the club from this day on, this_is_so_good.
gotta pay credit where credit is due. Good music is like a seasoned stake to chew
Sham Wow I accidentally just found out about him on Spotify while searching for Kendrick's new "Mortal Man" and came across "Yeezus Was a Mortal Man."
He's great🙌
This dude is the truth.
I just put my headphones on and let the chills run through my body as I listen to this masterpiece! 💯👌
"this is what it is. cut throat is this biz. you either hold the knife or hold the wound, im tryna live."
Woooow.....Love From Botswana,Africa
I don't know why, but I absolutely love this lyric: "Welcome to the back of my mind
Where brain cells are chained cells, locked in solitary confine."
2023 👌🏽
Hip hop approves.
Oddisee with the realest shit I ever heard.
It sounds like tryna heal a spiritual-emotional wound while everyone else is making new physical ones on themselves and others.
Thank God. Common sense and Rap does exist.
the beat is the personification of perfection
+David Sabethai look up the definition of personification bruh
touché dude I had a feeling I was using the wrong word hahah. im foreign though so I 'm excused:)
+David Sabethai you were almost right
+David Sabethai manifestation is the word you are looking for
+Lynch Smith "epitome"?
Oddisee should be way more known .
ouain t mieu de ten souvenir ahahha
christopher baur je vais tâcher de m'en souvenir !
ah des francophones qui ecoutent du bon hip-hop ca fait plaisir a voir : D
Tika Traub Nous sommes tous humains sur cette terre mon og , dla grosse zic' sa la pas de frontière :)
JeMeSouvienPu no. i speak russian and english
highly educated hip-hop, lets appreciate.....too damn great
Fresh account this will be the first song added to my playlist
I can't believe this dude is slept on.
When I listen to this man I'm able to forget about everything for a moment. Thank you for that.
His music really does have this impact.
We are not our bodies. We are not our minds. We are our souls. When we can understand and control our minds, then we can transcend into life through the soul (pure bliss and happiness). If not, we get trapped in our minds and reality is a rollercoaster. Elevate.
oddisee is the realest dude out there.
Beautiful track, what an absolute blessing to start the day off hearing music like this...Peace/MaxRespect Due!!
Man, respect for that beat, for that lyrics and this dope video.
hip hop is alive
Hands Down MY FAVORITE track my Oddisee, Masterpiece! That first verse 🙌🏾
Yes bro! My fav too. The visuals went perfect with the song too. This is an overall masterpiece
My thoughts exacty Fam...
worddd
one of the most underrated in hip-hop. he lives right in the president's back yard and barack don't even know it lol! dope son!
This is what you call a conscious rapper
on another Oddisee/TH-cam rabbit hole trip. happens every time he drops a new song. I always click on his old vids and before I know I've wasted a hole day at work. Maybe 'waste' is the wrong word.. Odd is just so damn good.
I love the drums on this beat and the vibe of the road in the video is awesome too, especially at the ending part..... 🛣
This guy should get famous, instead of those rich untalented kids. He is a genius rapper and producer. I have listened to all of his work. He is like DOPE.
This rapper is dope but not all people wanna make superstar status. Some don't wanna sign a record label he may just wanna live there dream out by doing what they love to do besides working for others work for yourself
I "stumbled" upon this artist on Apple Music's Jazz Grooves station and I'm blown away by his music and lyrical content, he's definitely a breath of fresh air...Oddisee is definitely in my rotation!
Latest addition of what's been missing. Oddisee's travels through life documented over DOPE rhymes & beats. Never ceasing to amaze with creativity and relevance.
I'll forever fuck wit Oddisee. Who else here in 2021?
hip-hop still lives!!
Best DMV native artist, period.
Oddisee is the best. I have such good memories chillin to his tunes with my brother. I love this man and his music. Amazing soul out into it ❤❤❤❤
You'll be famous one of these day. More than now. I promise you that
This Young Man Walks With The Almighty. No doubt about it. Truth always prevails. Always! Being honest with yourself is the TOUGHEST struggle.
Oddisee is the man
0:24 "Welcome to the back o ma ma"
I absolutely LOVE this man, fuck! The quality he delivers, the honesty, the raw realness... it's all I need for rap to be, I say for me he's a G.O.A.T in his own right. That's all that matters.
2017 and still real hip hop has not touched the radio. This artist is way ahead of his time, he could suffer the Van Gogh effect and never be known the way he should've been until his death. May blessings be with you Oddisee, true talent and the best lyricist out since Tangible Dream hands down.
Still come back to this. Its in the back of my mind
Oddisee spits like fire
que base brutal
monstruosa
orra
Foda demais
Louca memo
Best producer on the mic, word to J Rawls.
This...is so real men.
Thanks :')
Where's this song been all my life?
So happy to see real hip hop is coming back more and more THANK YOU!
Dude is Epic....
Luv his work.... All of it is good. No single favorite.
I don't understand what oddisee saying because i'm french but i very like this shit
Ax Pax Listening to hiphop like this will help you improve your English for sure man.
Same man, Colombian - Spaniard but this is dope
Maybe if you read along, it will help? Here you go!
Welcome to the back of my mind
Where brain cells are chained cells, locked in solitary confine
I hope that they may never see shine
Where the insane dwells is not a place for people, way too
Lethal at times
See the demeanor I present you is kind
But the truth is I'm ruthless
I plan to do this until I'm toothless and dying
See I've realized it now, that most of my pals
Will never get the
Chance to see what they were dreaming about
Well look at me, I must be a nightmare for those
Who was right there, so close, but not enough to see
May you live vicariously, if you helped
Me on my feet, know i'm (going to) be there, always around
Ironically the honesty is profound
It's the ones that left me on the ground that don't fuck with me now
Die slows brothers, die
Painfully
I'm in the, back of my mind this ain't a thing to me
I'm trying to be a better person, the more I get ahead I worsen
I use to have a higher tolerance
For when people be talking shit
Now I just put them on mute when they're cursing
I know we ain't
Perfect but I try to be above stooping low
Negativity ain't worth the exertion
But lately the
Thoughts in the back of my brain that I contain
Be leaking out, I'm speaking out through these
Verses, and this is what it is: cut throat is the biz (business)
You either hold the knife or hold the wound, I'm
Trying to live
My competition's in need of no help, they're good at killing themselves
But I assist
Them, cause I hate to see them bleeding on shelves
I'm pretty selfish & I know it, i do my best
Not to show it
Sometimes though I can't control it, i let it go & expose it
I say some shit that's
Insulting & proud that I am the culprit
& hope you find it revolting, and that what's from the back of
My mind
Enjoy. ^_^
This is how you help you help your fellow man. That's what this is about.......hip hop.....peace......

As one, brothers!
It is an interesting experience coming across artists like Oddisee at young ages. I was 10 when I first heard this. It connects with those that are introspective.
Soul Brother! ❤️
real raw talent
2:14...DEEP, TRUTHFUL, LYRICAL...WOW
Ok so it all started with that Diamond District album that just dropped that blew my mind and became album of the year tied with Freddie Gibbs Pinata. So i went back to hear older Oddisee stuff and... damn how in the hell did I not hear about this dude til now? This dude is fucking amazing.
“You know I’m trying to be a better person, the more I get ahead I worsen, I use to have a higher tolerance for people talking shit but now I just put them on mute when they’re cursin”
Instant classic. Many thanks for pouring your heart out...With your words and beats. Oddisee is keeping it true.
This was my shit back when it came out and helped me get trough some bad shit in my life. Haven';t listen to it in years and now it came randomly into my playlist. I'm going through the same phase, but this song helps so much.
B-e-a-utiful!!
oddisee typa rapper to rap you a bedtime story
clean as always
sadly to say but. music like this were easy to find back in days, but now its more than underground and very unique in this new generation. im very glad and happy i've heared this track. its amazing, Peace
I come back to this work soooo much. So much in these bars💜💜💜
Oddisee neva stop doing you. You're touchin lives out here yo.
He never disappointed me not once
i never thought this generation would have a guy like Oddisee. so far loving his stuff.
negativity ain't worth the exertion
thank you. from portland
Got this song memorized . Thanks for this bro . Hip hop
imagine a jcole and oddisee collab. pure bars forsure
the vibe behind this track is sick
Wow - just discovered this ARTIST! Real music does still exist, you just have to work past the traffic. What a lovely section of youtube
Ill strait up and down!...Salute the homey!
Как сказал Action Bronson, не знаю что он там зачитывает, но из души в душу льёт...сечёшь?))) P.S Можно слушать бесконечно...Спасибо автору
Can't believe I been sleepin on this dude
This aside he left here in the info is too deep. Oddisee, you've been a very big influence to myself and many, your ability to be versatile in any situation and always drop sustenance is ridiculous. For the longest time there wasn't the biggest catalogue of your writing available, and it's growing, and all of us day one fans are so proud. Never stop man, and please do some more work with the low budget crew. Has to be my favourite collection of musicians/lyricists. Is Kenn starr still around? Peace from canada :)
This is not a rapper he is a poet and it's great
That hook is fire
Most slept on MC of my time. Tragic this dude doesn't have a billion dollar record deal
Oddisee has just earned a new fan.
"This is what is, cut throat is this biz. You either hold the knife or hold the wound, Im trying to live"! Whooaaa..............
HE is so underrated I love him can relate!!
Oddisee is the most underatted artist that i've nerver seen
"its the ones that tried to leave me on the ground that don't fuck with me now....die slow brothers...die painfully".....i felt that
