Having built a rep as the place to go for soulful electronica and hot chill-out beats, the label has also released quality hip-hop for over a decade. Om takes pleasure in announcing they introduced the world to Peanut Butter Wolf, Cut Chemist and other underground giants. Now, with their new imprint, Om: Hip-hop, they claim they're "committed to discovering and releasing the dopest forward thinking hip-hop around."
And they just may be right.
With sizzling beats, intelligent lyrics and a genre-banding approach, Om Hip-hop: Volume One is the type of disc that ends before you want it to. Featuring great acts such as Strange Fruit and mind-blowing songs such as "Make U Fly" (Zion I & The Grouch feat. Esthero), it firmly establishes the label as one to watch for real hip-hop.
