History
Rap groups Awkward Why? and Dynasty began recording in 1996, and merged in 1998 to form the Oddities.[1][2]
Oddities members have released a number of collaborative projects over the years, including in 2001 a 12" single, "Weak Days".[2] Over time, other individuals participated in the group, including Kenny Neal (aka Bounce), Paul (pka Change), Naterrell, Retro Mosquito, and Bodible Oddities dancers Glizzii & Three (pka Daze).
The group's debut "family album", which showcased its members, was entitled The Scenic Route, and was released on Battle Axe Records in 2003.[3][4][5] Bookworm produced the album.[6]
