New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Prolific MC/producer Oddisee today releases his highly anticipated 'The Iceberg' (Mello
Music Group). A plea for understanding and empathy, a call for his listeners to dig deeper into big-picture issues like race, politics, wealth and religion - 'The Iceberg' is a smoldering window into the soul of an artist thinking critically about individuality and identity. The album has been met with raves from Time Magazine, NPR, Stereogum, a powerful NPR Weekend Edition segment, a song premiere on Ebro's Beats 1 radio show, opened the 2017 First Friday's season at the LA
Natural History Museum and much more. On March 2 Oddisee and his band Good Compny embark on a massive 3-month international tour.
