OMI established himself as an international artist to watch through a string of viral releases, including his world-renowned single “Cheerleader,” which spent six nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, went 5x Platinum, and garnered over 6 million Spotify weekly streams. The music video for the Felix Jaehn remix alone has accumulated well over 1.3 billion YouTube views to date, numbers comparable to those of international superstars. He’s performed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Good Morning America, and America’s Got Talent — and that’s just in the U.S. The worldwide success of “Cheerleader” earned OMI collaborations with The Vamps (“I Found a Girl“), Shaggy (“Seasons“), and Marcus & Martinus (“Never“) in the years that followed. In 2018, he reunited with German producer Felix Jaehn for their single “Masterpiece,” which has accumulated 38+ million streams on Spotify. The uptempo, summery track encourages women to find beauty in themselves as they are, in a digital age that often pushes the other way.
In the years that have passed since releasing “Cheerleader” and his debut full-length album ‘Me 4 U,’ OMI has recharged his body, mind, and soul by spending time with family in Jamaica. He’s also been honing in on his craft —growing as a singer, songwriter, and performer. Now, he’s ready to begin his next chapter. With 12+ Million Monthly listeners on Spotify and more than TWO BILLION Streams, OMI is pleased to be releasing new music in 2024 — a project that will fuse elements of Pop, Reggae, and Dancehall and showcase OMI’s continuous progression as an artist. The lead single ‘Poker Face’ is available now. In honour of the 10th Anniversary of “Cheerleader”, OMI will be embarking on an international tour to celebrate in the Fall of 2024.
