On January 24, Osamason finally released his long-awaited album Jumpout after months of teasing and promotion. Like many fans, I was eager to hear it—and I can confidently say I’m quite satisfied with what he delivered.
The album continues Osamason’s signature rage style, characterized by energetic beats and distorted textures, all produced exclusively by wegonbeok. The producer’s work gives Jumpout a cohesive sound and raw intensity, similar to his collaborations with Nettspend, who shares a comparable aesthetic.
To me, the sound of Jumpout feels like a fusion between Osama Season and Flex Musix. The opening track, Southside, immediately sets the tone with a hard-hitting beat and an aggressive drum pattern reminiscent of Osama Season. Unlike Flex Musix, though, Jumpout doesn’t offer any laid-back or chill moments—this project is full throttle from start to finish.
Vocally, Osamason experiments a bit more than usual. While he hasn’t drastically changed his style, he does start to explore higher vocal registers, which adds a new layer to the energy of several tracks. It’s a subtle evolution, but a welcome one.
Some listeners have criticized Jumpout as being mediocre due to its lack of innovation. And to be fair, Osamason doesn’t reinvent his sound here. The heavy promotion may have also led fans to expect something groundbreaking, which the album doesn’t quite deliver.
Still, I can’t bring myself to dislike it. Every track is enjoyable—there are no obvious skips—and the album stays true to what fans love about Osamason’s music. It’s a strong project overall: not perfect, but solidly executed. I’d give it a 7/10
