Odeal: Hip-Hop Artist in New York

About Odeal

Odeal is the stage name of Hillary Dennis Udanoh, a German-Nigerian singer-songwriter working at the intersection of hip-hop and R&B, with Afrobeats inflections. He first drew wider notice through the single “Soh-Soh,” which charted in the UK, the U.S., and Nigeria. In New York City, he has appeared at Barclays Center, including on Summer Walker’s Still Finally Over It Tour, and has shared bills with artists such as Summer Walker and Monaleo. His performances tend to favor clean melodic lines and rhythmic restraint over spectacle.
