20 Black Voices For A New Century Los Angeles
20 Black Voices for a New Century: Los Angeles collective Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All, mostly known as Odd Future, is a bold new voice in American hip-hop. Led by rapper and producer Tyler, The Creator, other members of Odd Future include Earl Sweatshirt, Hodgy Beats, Domo Genesis, Frank Ocean, several producers and offshoot groups including MellowHype, The Jet Age Of Tomorrow and The Internet.
With early music blog support and a television debut on the Jimmy Fallon show (video of that performance above) that blew more than a few minds, Odd Future has been reckless and creative, obnoxious and thrilling, pushing any boundaries and emotional buttons as far and as hard as they can.
