Omarion of B2K



  Omarion Omari Ishmael Grandberry  

Omarion was born Omari Ishmael Grandberry, on November 12, 1984 at Los Angeles, California. Along with partner members, De'mario Monte Thornton (Raz-B), Jarell Damonte Houston (J-Boog), and Druex Pierre Fredericks (Lil Fizz), the foursome hit the charts in 2002 with single "Uh Huh." The previous summer they had opened the Lil Bow Wow US tour, having been discovered at an Epic Records talent showcase. Their debut album reached number 2 on the Billboard 200 in March 2002. After collaborating with P. Diddy, their single "Bump, Bump, Bump" achieved number 1 on the US singles chart in early 2003. Later that year they started work on a soundtrack that would feature the quartet.



In December 2003, "You Got Served" was released, but weeks later and just before the film's release, B2K split up. It appears crafty management took advantage of the boys naivete. This drove a wedge between the career-minded Omarion and the other three, who were just waking up to the real world of sharks who would prey on them. The boys never showed up for a Philadelphia concert during a tour along with Omarion. Omarion writes about the incident in his 2005 memoir, O, but perhaps he avoids the real issues. Omarion's single, "O" started at Number 59 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. Another popular single from the album is "I'm Tryin."

In spite of the break-up, Omari Grandberry is on the road to follow-up success with his solo act, his debut solo album "O" released in February 2005. Is the break-up permanent? As long as the four remain at odds over proper representation, they will run separate courses. Watch for the true story to hit the fan in the near future.

As with most of the B2K band members, Omarion admires the dancing talents of Michael Jackson and the acting talents of Halle Berry. 15hqqh.
