I think it held like, like a maximum of like 25 songs. I remember when I was a kid, one of the first birthday presents my older brother got me was this really terrible mp3 player. This track is a track called “Steve Jobs,” which is a banger, and it features the Ghanaian-Australian artist Kwame. One of the singles from their latest album was called “Echolalia.” I've been listening to them for a long time and this felt like their poppiest track to date which was really cool to me because it’s still mysterious and grungy… but it makes me want to move my bot-taay.ġ300 are a Korean-Australian rap group who are quite new to the scene. Genesis Owusu: Incredible, incredible artist.
Now, scroll on down for Owusu’s stellar song picks. The festivities kick off in the fall and include an LA stop at the Fonda on Monday, November 6. We STRONGLY encourage catching Genesis Owusu live, and lucky for all of us he just announced his headlining North American tour. MBE has the US premiere of the album’s lead single "Leaving the Light,” and you can peep the video below along with other impactful cuts from Owusu’s life: Yves Tumor’s “Echolalia” which he singles out for being a body-mover that’s maintains an air of mystery Korean-Australian hip-hop group on the come up, 1300 and the Lupe Fiasco classic that sends his nostalgia receptors into overdrive. The three go deep on fashion (another area in which Owusu enjoys playing with androgyny), the classic cartoon influences that animate his wild stage show, and the heady literary inspiration behind the narrative of STRUGGLER. Naturally, we’re having Owusu take the guest DJ seat at KCRW HQ to break it all down with Morning Becomes Eclectic co-hosts Novena Carmel and Anthony Valadez. His sophomore album STRUGGLER - due August 18 via Ourness/AWAL - appears on track to kick his ambitious musical style up several more notches. It’s a big part of why each new Owusu release commands our full attention. No simple genre tags fit his musically androgynous approach to songcraft exactly - his sound incorporates as many grungy guitar riffs as it does sick beats.
Ghanian-Australian, singer-songwriter-rapper Genesis Owusu is nearly impossible to categorize.
