Enter, Washington DC rapper/producer Oddisee and his new track ‘That’s Love’, an uplifting funk and soul-indebted hip-hop track about one of the basic elements of life – love. The song is taken from his new album The Good Fight which also features Nick Hakim, Gary Clarke Jr., and Tranqill. It’s out in May.
