BLK ODYSSY Booking Agency Profile

The BLK ODYSSY project, led by Sam Houston, is motivated by emancipation. Houston, who was born and raised in Plainfield, New Jersey and now resides in Austin, Texas, delves into his own background as a Black musician and the environment he grew up in on his first album under this new name, BLK VINTAGE. It's an album that draws heavily on personal experiences while also addressing the condition of Black Americans worldwide. Even though the record opts for mellow tones and relaxed lyrics rather than overt protest, Houston's music is nonetheless influenced by a philosophical outlook.
Houston opted to forgo the fame he had attained as an Americana artist in favor of writing songs that would express his personal experiences and viewpoint. BLK ODYSSY is the end result and its debut album, BLK VINTAGE, has the urgency of a musician who has discovered their authentic sound. There is "1980," which slinks along to the rich funk-soul of performers like Anderson .Paak and Knxwledge, but Houston's half-rapped cadence is entirely distinct and totally alluring. The lighter moments were just as painful as the labor that was reflected through Houston's trauma. Houston does, however, possess the exceptional capacity to display several aspects of himself. A bass groove and silky harmonies strut in "Hang Low," a sensual love session.
BLK VINTAGE is a remarkable debut and one of the most impactful and timely releases of the year thanks to its strong blend of politically motivated street anthems, party-ready funk songs and top-down, head-nodding beats. Although Houston refers to his predecessors, the new recipe is entirely his own. It serves as a resounding affirmation of Black power and a warning to young people who resemble him that someone is on their side..

The final BLK ODYSSY booking price is contingent on many variables and the booking fee we may show is based on a range derived from our past experience with what will BLK ODYSSY charge for an event. An example fee to book BLK ODYSSY is in the starting range of $40,000-$74,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
CTI negotiates on behalf of professional event planners and talent buyers for paid appearances! We cannot give out direct contact information of the BLK ODYSSY agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The BLK ODYSSY manager and agent will only work with us if we present them with funded offers for their client to work your event.

We will negotiate with the BLK ODYSSY agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book BLK ODYSSY, because they get many offers to work events that are at or above asking price. It is also important to consider the travel costs when researching the BLK ODYSSY booking fee, as additional expenses like this, as well as an entourage of staff and equipment, are not necessarily built-in to the booking fee range shown. If your budget does not factor that in, then there is no benefit for them to want to be hired. We do not personally speak for BLK ODYSSY, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
