Blk Odyssy is an Austin-based artist and producer whose boundary-pushing sound blends soul, hip-hop, rock, funk, and pop. Born in Plainfield, New Jersey, and raised in a household steeped in neo-soul, BLK began channeling his voice through music after the unjust killing of his older brother by police at age 12. That life-altering loss and the experience of growing up Black and male in 21st-century America fuels his raw, layered storytelling. His debut album, BLK VINTAGE (2021), written and produced with close collaborators, served as both a celebration and a critique of Black identity in America. It was met with critical acclaim and re-released in 2022 via Empire as BLK VINTAGE: The Reprise, featuring Mereba, Benny the Butcher, George Clinton, and Baby Rose. The project has since amassed over 100 million streams and positioned Blk Odyssy as a standout voice in modern soul. His 2023 sophomore album, DIAMONDS & FREAKS, continued his ascent, merging surrealism and social commentary with contributions from Rapsody, KIRBY, Bootsy Collins, Cory Henry, and production from The Alchemist. NPR called BLK "a surrealist R&B auteur," while Pitchfork praised his ability to bend genre into a cinematic sonic experience. In 2024, following a surreal Tiny Desk performance and festival appearances across Europe-including a headline set at North Sea Jazz Festival and Lollapalooza in Chicago-Blk Odyssy launched a bold new chapter, with his third studio album, 1-800 FANTASY. The first single from the album, "WANT YOU" (co-produced by Tyler Johnson, known for his work with Harry Styles), marked a shift in tone. That was followed by "XXX" featuring Wiz Khalifa, and "STANK ROSE" featuring Joey Bada$$. Now averaging over 1M+ weekly streams, Blk Odyssy is unleashing his fourth project, MOOD CONTROL, a ten-track album pushing alt-R&B, soul, and funk to new heights.
