Interview: Special Request with 1-O.A.K (Video)1

1-O.A.K, is one of those artists who released a project, and I am so excited for him almost like it was my album.  Below, is the write up for the video hope you enjoy.  Also, if you still have not yet got the album, make sure to download that ASAP here.

Oakland bred singer/songwriter and producer, 1-O.A.K, represents the best of the Bay Area music scene.  Within his music, he is able to encompass all the music forms that have made the area popular—hip-hop and soul, while still adding in a lot of himself and a lot of other musical elements.   With his long awaited debut album, Special Request, that’s what comes across.

The album gives listeners an idea of why we all were waiting for an album from the singer and really gives listeners an idea of who the singer really is notably with tracks like: “Yaya,” “Sweet Memories,” and “High Rollers,’ just to name a few.

Following the release of the album, I got a chance to catch up with 1-O.A.K and speak with him about his roots in music, the creative process behind the album, particular songs and etc.  The video was shot and edited by DJ.Lan.
