You Need to Hear Odie's Industrial Afrobeats Sound In 'Faith'
The 21-year-old producer & singer has been channeling his Nigerian roots into next level fusions.
After jumping back into the scene with the smooth alternative R&B track "Little Lies" a couple of weeks ago, Odie is back at it with a more up-tempo sound this time around.
"Faith" is the infectious new single off the producer-cum-singer's upcoming project, Analogue, which is due in the spring.
The Toronto-born, Bay Area-raised artist lets his Nigerian roots come alive with the song which incorporates both industrial sounds and afrobeats. The 21-year-old talent has previously stated that he is influenced by the likes of Kid Cudi, Chris Martin, and Fela Kuti. It's not hard to spot how seamlessly he is blending these varied styles in his music.

"Some days I'm hopeless, others I'm invincible. With this song I wanted to capture the latter feeling. 'Faith' is me down to my roots, with all the energy and conviction in the world," he explains.
After a period away from the spotlight, Odie is ready to introduce his intricately cultivated sound with the world. If "Faith" is anything to go by then Analogue is a project worth looking out for.
