Founded years ago by Krystafer Oliver (known to the community as LV da King, Lyrisk Vates, King, and SIMBAH), Rare Odd Records LLC began as a vision to create a home for authentic artistry. What started as a personal mission has evolved into a powerhouse partnership. Today, the label is co-owned and operated by Krystafer and BK Brian Kendrick (a.k.a. FLARistotle).

Headquartered in Auburn, WA, we pride ourselves on being a family-run operation. We aren’t just a record label; we are a full-service studio and media publishing company. Our philosophy is simple: we maintain a deep, local focus on the talent in our backyard while driving a global agenda to share our sound with the world.
