Following was a sold-out show at Outernet and stand-out singles You, The World Vs Meand, most recently, ‘Fine By Myself’, which set the vulnerability tone from the beginning. Spanning just over twenty minutes, Odeal opens the project with Landminds’, an intro packed with strings and symphonies, as he expresses how his feelings for one person, in particular, go unmatched.

On The Groundsees the relationship bursting with chemistry and lust whilst pleading for her to let her guard down. The intimate moments continue with Bedroom Weather, which is captured perfectly in the opening lyric  “I’ve got an XL sweater, it fits you perfectly for bedroom weather”, and overflow into ‘Water’ with Odeal exclaiming he’s “lost at sea” as he gives all of himself to his lover.

Throughout the EP, the tone takes a turn with an emotive breakdown and breakthrough on “Rigour Mortis” as feelings of love switch to pain and anger. Closing the project is Gave You My All”, which zooms out and sees the relationship as a whole, ‘from kissing and cuddling, all night long you tell me our problems, now i can’t stand to see you in public’, arching from love to lost.

Born in Germany, the 23-year-old musician was raised between Nigeria, Spain and the UK and has been immersed in diverse cultures his whole life. His varied upbringing has led to his fusion of Alte, R&B and Afro, fast-tracking him into becoming the voice to watch out for over the past few years.

Along the way, Odeal has worked with artists such as Nines, Enny, K-Trap and Gabzy, to name a few, and has proven how valuable a verse from him can be. On his solo material, he has developed a fiercely individual sound and established himself as a formidable force, selling out three shows one after another with his Ovmbr brand at the forefront. 

Odeal is still riding the huge high from his sold-out show at The Outernet last month and is excited to celebrate at Ovmbrfest this weekend (25th) atLDN East. Notable career highlights include co-signs from BBC Radio 1’s Victoria Jane, BBC 1xtra and Represent, and NME, Complex, Clash, Notion, Wonderland and Guap. Odeal has had one of the year’s most popular COLORS performances, has racked up over 10 million plays on ‘Coffee (Don’t Read Signs)’ andplaced 12 on the UK industry engagement list.
