EP Coming 5/30/25
En Route is Oddisee at his most distilled—a self-produced EP that doesn’t just explore motion but embodies it. It plays like a journal written mid-transit: windows down, eyes forward, one hand steady on the wheel. Clocking in at EP length but brimming with full-length insight, it’s a quiet kind of offering—unconcerned with flash, insistent in its clarity.
Tracks like “A Rare Thing” set the tone with poise and patience. Jazz-laced chords and brushed snares frame a meditation on presence that refuses to slip into cliché. It’s the kind of track that asks you to slow down, to actually feel where you are. “Tomorrow Can’t Be Borrowed” answers with urgency—groove-heavy, soul-deep, and sharp in its reminder that time isn’t a promise. These aren’t just songs about movement—they’re about what it costs to keep going, and what you might miss if you don’t look around.
Across its brief runtime, En Route glides rather than announces, favoring subtlety over spectacle. Oddisee trades in nuance—warm basslines, unfussy textures, and lyricism that stays true to essence. This is refined music. The result feels lived-in and intentional, less concerned with arrival than with the meaning found along the way.
This is Oddisee not reaching for something new, but returning to something essential: presence, purpose, and the quiet rhythm of being en route.
