SOL2010: A Space Odyssey at Solera
St. Paul hip-hop Renaissance man Omaur Bliss seems capable of anything shy of alchemy, as long as a microphone’s involved. The silver-tongued MC, who moonlights as a yoga instructor, created a smooth jazz-infused organic hip-hop sound on his meticulously produced 2005 self-titled debut. Quickly gaining a following thanks to his electrically charged live concerts, he moved into producing (under the name Omac Montainya) for his 2008 western-themed EP, Death Of An Unheard Rap Cowboy, which revealed a darker, dirtier side to his music. His forthcoming disc, Dirty 3.0, is both danceable and lyrically solid.
