My Take
Matt Martians is the sort of restless polymath I gravitate toward. As a founding member of Odd Future and a core voice in The Internet, he helped shape a hazy, off-kilter strain of alternative R&B that prizes texture over polish. What I love is that he is also an illustrator, meaning he can build the whole world, sound and image alike, from his own imagination. That self-contained creativity gives his work an unmistakable, dreamlike fingerprint. The 'Martians' name fits perfectly: grounded enough to groove, but always seeming to gaze somewhere stranger and more distant. I find that playful, genre-agnostic freedom genuinely cool.
