Omarion recently inked a label deal with Starrworld Entertainment, under
the umbrella of EMI Label Services. The album, “Ollusion,” will be his
first release under the record label. The singer views this album and new
opportunity with the label as a chance to take creative control of his
music. The singer penned and co-produced all of the songs on the album.
“My style has evolved so much on this album — I was able to express truly
who I am from a creative and artistic standpoint, which allowed me to share
a personal side of myself with my fans through my music. This is my
masterpiece and I can’t wait for the world to hear my new album,” Omarion
said. “I am very excited about my new home at EMI and know that this is the
perfect opportunity for me to return to the charts.”
Omarion has released two chart topping solo albums since leaving the
multi-platinum selling group B2K. His first solo album, “O,” debuted #1 on
the Billboard 200 chart. His sophomore album, “21,” dominated radio airplay
and also debuted #1 on the Billboard 200 chart. The second single from
“21,” “Ice Box,” produced by Timbaland, topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart
and was a platinum-selling ringtone.
Omarion collaborated with rapper Bow Wow on his third project post-B2K,
“Face Off,” which was the number one rap album in the U.S. and number two
R&B album. The actor and producer appeared in several films, most notably
“You Got Served,” which was a #1 box office smash, earning $40 million
worldwide. He also added author to his resume in 2004, releasing a solo
