Temperature Check: HATE & Hentai w/ Omen44

Mega Late Show

Hello,

After a lil technical difficulty caused delay, another one.

This convo is with the god Omen44. He has had a busy year despite the ongoing pandemic situation. He released multiple albums last year, and was even able to finish two tours before the whole world went to hell. He talks about hearing murmurings about the upcoming threat while still in Japan then experiencing it full-force when he arrived in NY. Even through all this he is taking the time to work on his craft and build, even outside of his art.

There is a lot of music talk with special focus on his latest two albums, 7 and Hentai. Make sure to check those out especially the tracks "Eclipse"; "Dum-dum"; and "i can see the sun" off of Hentai, which feature Planet Asia; Fizzi Pizzi; and Skyzoo; respectively, and the latter of which Omen gratuitously allowed to be included at the end of this episode. Also make sure to go check out the project he released with two other Japanese rappers, Nipps and Vikn, 25:17.

His latest single, HATE, was just released recently and features Chelsea Reject. The track was made in response to the recent spate of anti-Asian violence that has been happening, and we also get into that topic during the course of our convo.

Sorry for the delay, here's some content
