People Hear What They See is the fourth studio album by American hip hop artist Oddisee. It was released on Mello Music Group on June 5, 2012.

Andrew Noz of Washington City Paper gave the album a mixed review, noting that "[sometimes] he gets buried in the ornateness of his own beats; elsewhere, he manages to compensate with the instinctive understanding of having created them." Meanwhile, Marcus J. Moore of BBC Music commented that "[with] this album, Oddisee looks in the mirror and examines his own intricacies, attempting to comprehend his immediate surroundings and society as a whole."

Jesse Fairfax of HipHopDX gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying, "Technically still a product of Hip Hop as his long established penchant for fierce rapping accompanied by boom-bap rhythm is fully intact, his gradual growth towards a fleshed out vision inclusive of live instrumentation may seek transcendence that dispels confinement within a set genre." Brandon Soderberg of Spin called it "a gritty hip-hop album with detours into orchestrated soul, quiet storm, and space disco."

Homeboy Sandman named it his favorite album of 2012.Uproxx named it one of the "12 Most Slept-On Albums of 2012". In 2014, Complex named it one of the "Best One-Producer Albums of the 2000s".
