Otis Mensah, self-proclaimed mum’s house philosopher and rap psalmist, offers an alternative take on contemporary Hip-Hop and spoken word. Endeavouring to shed light on existential commonalities through vulnerable expression, Otis’s work reads like a stream-of-consciousness moving through worlds of thought.

Otis releases music independently, taking creative projects like Rap Poetics to the stage around the UK and Europe, as well as making his debut at Glastonbury Music Festival. Otis has opened for heavyweights like Benjamin Zephaniah, Arrested Development, The Sugarhill Gang, Wu-Tang Clan affiliate Killah Priest,Lowkey, Open Mike Eagle, Chali 2na and Blu & Exile.
