Since his break-up with B2K years ago, many have counted Omarion out. Though he has released some records, did a few movies, and played with fashion, non of them were big enough to shock the world as the news that broke today.
During a Maybach Music Press Conference held today in NYC, Rick Ross announced that he had signed Omarion to Maybach Music Group.
“I ran into the homie, we had a few conversations and I flew him down to Miami and he played me a dozen records. I was amazed by the music he put together. We had a few conversations and we made a situation happen. He’s a phenomenal entertainer. His dancing is incredible. He’s an actor, he’s a writer. I thought it would be a great move for both of us. I’ve been looking to enter the R&B arena, I felt he was the best artist to kick the doors open.”
Shortly after Rick Ross, Diddy, and Swizz Beatz spoke at the Press Conference, Sway also caught up with Omarion to speak with him about his new label home.
“It’s amazing. First and foremost, what people have to understand is Ross is a real dude, so he don’t align with everybody. He’s gotta feel connected and the music thing connected us……Today I become a made man. Omarion aka Maybach O. ”
