"Born during the infamous blizzard of ’96 in Washington, DC, and raised by Nigerian immigrant parents, soso tharpa embodies the eclectic nature of DC’s music and culture, having grown up listening to the musical likes of country, rap, and everything in between. His musical productions are similarly wide-ranging, taking inspiration from a slew of sources and rewiring the sounds into something completely new. What started as happenstance has developed into a burgeoning career as a producer, marked by a recent EP on DC’s Future Times, a solo EP titled Looseleafs which has seen rotation by the likes of Ben UFO on Rinse FM, and an upcoming release on 1432 R’s label. soso tharpa’s sound is hard to pin down – it’s more about the emotional drive behind the music, which feels in a constant state of propulsion. Spring-loaded synths, pinpoint percussion, and evocative vocal snippets dance in rhythm with beautiful intricacy; it’s music made for dancing and for feeling." - truantsblog.com
