NNAMDÏ On 'Brat' And Channeling A Decade Of Chicago DIY Influence Into Pop Music
The experimental artist Nnamdi Ogbonnaya talks about not limiting his creative ceiling when making his latest album and his conflicted feelings about pursuing music over taking a traditional job.
Nnamdi Ogbonnaya, who releases music as NNAMDÏ, has been a staple of Chicago's indie scene for years. He's been called the city's "weirdest musician," and his most recent album, Brat, explores what happens when a kid who dreams of being an artist actually finds success.
NNAMDÏ's solo music spans multiple instruments and genres — from math rock to and and also founded his own label, Sooper Records.
