While the eclecticism of his debut album The Find won him many fans, Watts Happening pushes the envelope to reveal even more about MC/producer Ohmega Watts
and continues to challenge the expectations of what a rap album could
be. The record includes collaborations with lauded Philly-based
MC/producer Jneiro Jarel and up n’coming Brazilian vocalist Tita Lima
who appears on the DJ-friendly Brazilian-tinged excursion “Adaptacao.”
Watts wrote “Are You Satisfied” for Bay Area blues n’funkstress, and
one of James Brown’s favorite female vocalists Sugarpie Desanto,
inspired by recent losses she suffered in a tragic fire at her Oakland
home. London instrumentalist, and label mate, Shawn Lee
also provides some key sounds from his over-stocked studio. The album
includes features from favorite Watts cohorts like the Lightheaded crew, Triple Grip and Theory Hazit.
