Former NBA player Baron Davis introduced fans to his alter ego Bart Oatmeal by releasing a new EP titled Get a Bowl Vol. 1.
Baron Davis created the Bart Oatmeal metaverse character for his musical endeavors. The two-time NBA All-Star detailed the character’s backstory in a listing on the NFT marketplace OpenSea.
“Bart Oatmeal is an amazing musician that everyone thought was homeless,” the listing reads. “He linked with Baron Davis for a period, then one day disappeared. He left behind all of his tapes, lyric books, and a lot more. 20 years later, Baron realized this vault of content and began to [pursue] the completion of Oatmeal’s vision. He began by creating a community of athletes, artists and designers.”
Baron Davis teased the release of a Bart Oatmeal album in 2021. A year later, he dropped a six-track EP under the name of his metaverse character.
“GET A BOWL VOL. 1 OUT NOW EVERYWHERE,” he wrote on Instagram. “much love to everyone that made this happen!
