Oblé has been consistently putting Seattle on the map with his music. His ability to craft songs that are not only catchy but also rich with lyrical depth is rare. There’s a structure to his writing that feels intentional and sharp — every line has purpose, every hook sticks, and yet he never sacrifices substance for style.
When his debut album LINDENAVE! began gaining serious attention, I remember having conversations with friends about it. Some people doubted whether he could follow it up strong enough to maintain his momentum. I disagreed — and I’ve been proven right. Oblé didn’t just follow it up; he leveled up.
Since then, he’s been on a roll — dropping standout singles and full projects with impressive consistency. His latest release, “RITE NOW,” is another gem. Featuring rising star mynameisntjack, who’s been making waves with collaborations alongside Tommy Richman, the track feels like a creative breakthrough. The chemistry between them is undeniable — going bar for bar, feeding off each other’s energy, and blending seamlessly into the beat. The production itself feels futuristic, like something that launches you into orbit, while Oblé’s smooth, tightly mixed vocals act as an anchor, keeping everything grounded and intentional.
What sets Oblé apart is his hunger. He never coasts. Every track feels like he’s got something to prove — not to the industry, but to himself and the people rooting for him. His work ethic, consistency, and artistic evolution are undeniable. He’s not just keeping up — he’s setting the pace.
In my eyes, Oblé is arguably the most consistent artist I know right now. And he’s doing it while representing Seattle in the best way possible. Our city is watching, supporting, and hoping he continues to push boundaries — because artists like Oblé don’t come around often. The sky’s not the limit for him — it’s just the beginning.
