Othello’s Alive at the Assembly Line Set to hit Stores October 30th - The Hiphop IS Music Label gears up for the October release of Othello’s smash new album, Alive at the Assembly Line
Othello along with the Hiphop IS Music label are getting ready for the October 30th release of Othello’s 3rd LP, the smash new album, Alive at the Assembly Line. In Support of his October 30th release, Othello will hit the road on the 2007 Elevation Tour, November 1st.
Seattle born, Portland residing, World traveling Emcee/ Performer/ Producer Othello has been touring the globe since 2000, selling over 13,000 copies of his first album Classic , sharing the stage with such artist as Gift of Gab, Crown City Rockers, The Procussions, Boom Bap Projects, De La Soul, Lyrics Born, People Under the Stairs, J-Live, Zion I and many more. Othello has been working hard to make his mark on today’s Hip Hop scene. His energetic live performance coupled with heart exposing lyrics leaves crowds feeling rejuvenated in an otherwise life- draining genre.
When not on the road with his band The Black Notes or his D.J. Manwell, the 12 year lyricist partners up with best friends Ohmega Watts and Braille to form the super crew, Lightheaded, a group which has become a household name in every jazz-loving independent Hip Hop residence. Othello’s sound is reminiscent of the “golden” or “jazzy” era of Hip Hop, but with a much more complex, yet seamlessly smooth rhyme flow. He’s both socially relevant and spiritually conscious.
There is no question after listening to his songs, that Othello is raising the standard for the genre of positive Hip Hop. Othello seeks so share his faith in a meaning and authentic way in hopes to communicate true freedom.
