    I'd love to see him, supposed to be excellent live. But not sure if it will happen, from talking to a promoter about him before, it's a gamble based on the financials.

    Tickets on sale Friday. As they now have three solo albums out and gaining popularity I'd recommend buying tickets on Friday. I'd be very surprised if it doesn't sell out.

    And yes they're class live!

    There are loads of non hip hop heads going to be going to this, I think their last one here was jammed.

    His last gig was amazing. He has a live band called Good Company with him that really make the songs come alive.

    I always wondered did he perform them live.

    Side note - that's something I'd love to see. Loads of hip hop classics performed live. Saw it years ago on bleeker st in NY, cover band were killing it with a live set up

    Live bands work really well with some, others not so much. Oddisee is a musician first and rapper second, so he knows how to work with the band to curate the sound.

    I think I've seen live bands doing beats, say for example Premo beats, and it's just monotnous and doesn't work out well as Premo sticks to a formula of 16s and hooks.
    Whereas Oddisee's beats tend to grow and mature over a track, so there is something for the band to do. Plus Good COmpany themselves are deadly and add their own flair.

    That District Mag thing looks class. I'd say i'll head into it. The Lawrii Craic fella seems very strong from that "Judas II" video. Very slick first verse. I'm interested to see how Mythill Grim comes across live too.

    EDIT: Also 5th Element album launch with This Side Up of Sligo on support, 11th February at the Academy.

    They sold out in minutes!

    Although they appeared on SeatWave shortly after being sold out, not sure if there is any left there. They are probably at a massively inflated price if they are.
