BRAT

BRAT

A staple on the Chicago DIY scene for the better part of a decade, Nnamdi Ogbonnaya can’t be contained: He’s drummed and played bass in more bands than you can count, raps when the mood strikes, and releases tripped-out avant-pop under his own name in the meantime. A testament to his wild ambitions, BRAT is all over the place but elegant still; cacophonies of horns and strings and delirious melodies fade into existential meditations, the mood switching from raucous house party to bummed-out comedown in a single track. One moment NNAMDÏ‘s feeling himself (chamber-trap stunting anthem “Price Went Up”), the next he’s sick of everything (“Everyone I Loved”).
