In fact, the 23-year-old Palestinian American artist, better known as, is just as inspired by The Legend of Zelda as Playboi Carti. His music, which melds pitched-up rap hooks, glitchy trap flare and menacing club beats, captures the climactic melodies and energy of his favorite video games.
“I made a Sonic [the Hedgehog] and Shadow edit, plugging their voices into AI and making them say obscure things,” Ahmad says. “Then my music would come in and rake in millions of views. People started asking, ‘What’s that song in the background?’ And a snowball effect happened.” On Sept. 13, Ahmad released his first proper Odetari EP, titled “XIII Sorrows.” Its opening track, “Hypnotic Data,” is a double espresso shot injected with frenetic vocals, bouncy synths and bravado . It’s pure adrenaline. Just after a minute and a half, it slows down and unwinds in classic Houston chopped-and-screwed fashion.
While he’s been dropping music for a decade, Ahmad has only just begun playing live, marking his performance debut at a New York show in June.
