Teddy Obot delivers his lyrics in the style of love letters over simple yet syncopated rhythms, a call back to his Nigerian heritage. Retelling his stories in a 3-way conversation between himself, his muse, and the audience, Teddy's work seems to put every emotion, urge, and thought on full display. 
 His music socially illustrates the wave of feelings that can rush over you during the important moments of life and transition, such as new/unrequited love or heartbreak. The songs speak directly to our understanding and past our logic.
