Obsinema is a boundary-blurring recording artist and filmmaker whose presence has become synonymous with the creative identity of the city. Translating to “dark reflection,” his name mirrors the atmospheric world for which he is laying the foundation — a space where soft vocals drift through the shadows of R&B, Neo-Soul, and electronic noir. His fingerprint is unmistakable as Obsinema moves fluidly through the worlds of music, fashion, and film, leaving a recognizable signature across each of these artistic communities. His work conjures sleek, cinematic landscapes that feel immersive, intentional, and sharp. With a reputation that now extends beyond the purely underground, Obsinema stands as a creative architect, pushing boundaries while leaving a lasting visual and sonic imprint.
