SET IT OFF: OOMPA’S ‘CLEO’ IS A TOTAL TRIUMPH AND A MILESTONE FOR HIP-HOP, IN BOSTON OR ANYPLACE ELSE

Written by CHRIS FARAONE Posted August 22, 2019 Filed Under: MUSIC, Reviews

Each joint on Cleo has its own unique dynamic, with a versatile vibe across the track list. Oompa opens up about various aspects of her travels through the journey, depicting trials she has overcome, as well as situations she’s still trying to navigate. Mental health is front and center, a rarity in hip-hop, but not surprising considering her overall maturity.
