‘I tell them that I died and rose from the flames’
American born, UK-bred, Odsyi is hitting the Urban scene hard with his introspective alt-R&B debut “Loved x Lost” (Loved and Lost). With 8 years of experience as a singer/songwriter, producer, and engineer for a selection of global top-tier music artists, including Giggs and Stefflon Don, Odsyi (Neiman Brown) is primed to take a leap in his own direction with his original sounds.
“Loved x Lost” uses broody vocal melodies and a trap-inspired rhythm fused eclectically with woozy indie, rock and pop-influenced electronics to create a dark yet airy downtempo vibe. The track is filled with a kaleidoscopic of emotional reflections using sophisticated writing techniques to portray strength through vulnerability.
“The song is the result of a toxic relationship with my child’s mother.” Odysi explains, “There was a long period of time when I couldn’t see my child and I didn’t know when I would see her again. It sounds like I’m talking about the mother but if you listen closely to the lyrics you can see I’m talking about the relationship with my child.”
Odysi is the product of challenging childhood himself - while being raised by a single parent he came to the UK for a better life. Starting out as an MC in both Hip-Hop and 2-Step Garage he went on to achieve a Bachelor in English. In 2012 he started a commercial music studio, Novacane, in London, finding his way deeper into the industry. His tenacity combined with the strength of the track is proof that Odysi is a name to remember.
