Limited clear colored vinyl LP pressing. Imbued with love, honesty, and selflessness, 2015's The Good Fight is virtuosic in it's musicality, direct in it's language, and infinitely relatable. In a landscape overrun with abstract indulgence and shallow trend-chasers, the Prince George's County, Maryland artist has created a record that reminds you that it's music before it's hip-hop. For Oddisee, The Good Fight is about living fully as a musician without succumbing to the traps of hedonism, avarice, and materialism. It's music that yields an intangible feeling: the sacral sound of an organ whine, brass horns, or a cymbal crash. It's a meditation on our capacity to love and the bonds binding us together. It's our ambition and greed warring with our sense of propriety - a list of paradoxes we all face when living and striving.
An incredible album by an underrated MC. I am ashamed to never have heard of Oddisee up until a couple of years ago. Reigning from Washington D.C., Oddisee is an example of a rare breed of rappers who doesn't sacrifice his art of substantial music for pop irrelevance. "The Good Fight" is a nice collection of informative and uplifting music. From the Oddisee's textured lyrics to the immaculate soul and funky production, this is an album that is meticulously put together from start to finish with no filler tracks in sight. From self appreciated "No Love" all the way to the reflective "Worse Before Better" this album is just amazing. Another comment that should be mentioned is that fact that there is no unnecessary use the "N" "F" or "B" word which is a accomplishment in today's world of Hip Hop. I cannot praise this album without sounding redundant, but this is definitely in my top 5 Hip Hop albums of the year right next to Kendrick Lamar's "To Pimp and Butterfly" and Lupe Fiasco's "Tetsuo & Youth".Favorite 51) Counter-Clockwise2) First Choice3) Contradiction's Maze4) Want Something Done5) Book CoversDo yourself a favor and support this mans music!
