Quite possibly one of the most underrated pop-music artists and rappers in the game right now, Oliver Tree performed to a sold out show on Valentine’s Day at The Roxy, where he’ll be playing to a sold out show the next day as well.
Oliver Tree’s high-energy performance did not disappoint. With only an EP and a few singles under his belt, he performed a bunch of new songs from his forthcoming debut album. Fans, get ready! You can expect an entire album full of pop hits.
The show was full of surprises – From busting out some scooter tricks on stage to smoking out of the biggest Stiizy vape pen in the world, Oliver Tree and his band gave the audience an experience we didn’t know we were missing. It’s still the beginning of 2019, but I can honestly say it was one of the most fun shows I’ve been to all year.

Don’t be fooled by appearances. Oliver Tree is a hidden gem of talent. He raps, he sings, he plays guitar, he scoots, and he’s a style icon. Though Oliver Tree may not have the typical look of today’s hip hop artists, he definitely rocks his own style. This is one of the best parts of his appeal. He doesn’t have any face tats and he looks like a living, breathing meme. At first glance you might think he’s joke rapper, but that’s definitely not the case. When you look past his bowl cut, oversized pants, Solo Cup design matching sweat suit and actually give the music a chance, you’ll come to find that his music is REALLY GOOD. Not only is his music so damn catchy, his lyrics are relatable and his bars have substance… which goes a lot further than some of the “sound cloud” artists that are gaining popularity in today’s music scene. If there’s anyone you should be keeping your eye out for, it’s for artists who aren’t afraid to be themselves and do their own thing.
He ended his show with a few words of wisdom. “If you only take away one thing from this set, just remember, no matter how strange you think you look, no matter how fucking weird you feel sometimes, you’re fucking beautiful. Don’t let anybody tell you elsewheres.”
