Odd Holiday Create Mini Movie Track With “It Is Whut It Iz”
Odd Holiday’s new single, “It Is Whut It Iz,” is an incredible balancing act, as it narrowly steps into the worlds of straight-up dope hip-hop and left-field experimentalism without an ounce of pretension. The North Carolina-meets-North London duo has created a mini-movie with this track, which flirts with psychedelia thanks to producer Daylight Robbery’s trippy samples and breakbeats. The production then bursts open to embrace Mattic’s immediately engaging rhymes, which include slick references to Franco Harris, shots fired at the 1%, and head-spinning wordplay. “It IS Whut It Iz” is available now through all major DSPs, with the duo’s new album L.I.S.A., due out May 26 via Chinese Man Records. Be sure to check out the album’s other singles, “Omen Key” and “Boarded Up Portals.”
