THIS IS WHAT I DO

About Me

editor
In a time and age where hip hop - once the most innovative and ever-evolving music in both hemispheres – has reached a point where fans and connoisseurs alike have come to wonder what the future will hold for it, emerges roDDie.Introducing a truly refreshing style and visionary approach – yet taking us back to the days where mesmerizing beats and advanced lyricism epitomized hip hop music - roDDie is bound to take the world by storm.Born in Cameroon but raised and grown up all around the world, roDDie’s game is what you might call genuinely international – an attribute that is remarkably reflected in his creativeness, versatility, poetic abilities and elaborate perspectives. roDDie has dedicated his life to music since he was 13 and has ever since elevated his game steadfastly.Blessed with a smooth voice, overpowering lyrical skills and an enthralling flow, roDDie blends classic elements of Hip Hop, R’n’B and Soul with his own unique flavor, creating a truly eclectic style. Whether it is the laid-back ballad that massages your soul, the club banger that makes you wanna get down or the sophisticated, lyrically-laden rap that makes you contemplate life.Today, in a world where hustler clichés, repetitive sounds and lacking individuality dominate hip hop culture, roDDie’s personality and his approach towards music clearly set him apart from most other artists: For it is a style that puts an emphasis on the music instead of the artist; on individuality instead of uniformity; on creativeness instead of monotony.First and foremost, though, listening to roDDie entices you to be someone that is truly “you” instead of coercing you into an image that does not reflect your personality. Just listen…This Is What He Does
