Above, we’ve got the latest from Otis Fonde, a self-titled effort. If you’ve never heard Otis rap, here are a few of his tracks from last year. Long story short, these tracks are not exactly like his 2022 songs.

That’s not a bad thing–at all.

Instead, we get Fonde philosophizing about life while flexing his lyrical, verbal and punchline-heavy muscles. If you want some fire rap over nine songs–each one different from the last–this project should pique your interest more than enough. The brother has bars, he’s got bars people can relate to and his got relatable bars that aren’t just him saying useless BS or saying the same thing over and over again.

Highlights include songs “Old Friends” and “Walked In,” as the duo of songs showcase that diversity I mentioned. Check it out above and remember to support dope music in all its forms.
