Nnamdi Ogbonnaya is to Chicago music like oxygen to the elemental makeup of the human body — that shit is everywhere. The polymath producer/composer/performer has had in hand in a number of projects over the last few years, from playing drums in Monobody and Itto, to slapping bass for Nervous Passenger, to rapping in the Sooper Swag Project. His latest effort, DROOL (Sooper Records and Father/Daughter Records), sees Nnamdi taking his eclectic MC persona centerstage for 13 tracks that put his many talents on display.

One of those songs is “hOp Off”, the latest single to be cut from the record. Over a beat that’s somehow as bouncy as it is subdued in haze, Nnamdi stands confident in his ability to out write any lyricist in the game. “You can never be Nnamdi/ You can’t even be around me/ Everything I do, astounding/ Kill it even when I’m clowin’,” he raps at supersonic frequency.

In the track’s freshly released video, the Chicago rapper goes about his daily life in his hometown, whether it be shopping for yogurt or mowing the lawn. Of course, he finds time to relax with some bike riding and pogo stick jumping, too. Check it out up above.

Nnamdi will be touring behind DROOL this fall, and you can peep his itinerary below.
