Otega links up with Bhadboi OML on a smooth new record called “Indica,” and the pairing actually makes a lot of sense once you hear it.
“Indica” sits in that hazy, laid-back zone the title already suggests. This isn’t a record built for jumping around or shouting along in a crowd. It’s more for those quieter moments, late evenings, headphones on, just letting the music move at whatever pace it wants. Otega sounds completely at ease here, which is when he tends to deliver his best vocal performances.
Bhadboi OML slides in naturally without disrupting the mood Otega sets up from the start. His verse adds a slightly different texture to the song without pulling it away from the overall direction. Together they keep “Indica” locked in one feeling throughout, which is exactly what this kind of record needs.
After mixing reflective songs like “Memories” and “Pictures” with more playful moments this year, “Indica” gives Otega’s 2026 catalogue another smooth, easy corner to settle into. Stream it when the energy calls for something unhurried.
