Omar left the church after four years as Pastor to follow his passion of becoming a musician. He began his music career by performing in nightclubs and, with the assistance of a jockey buddy, quickly appeared on compilation albums for popular DJs. He was also a backup singer for Hector and Tito.

Omar launched his second studio album, ‘King of Kings,’ after three years of research and hard work. The album broke several records and became more popular than his previous releases. Every day, Omar’s fan base grew larger and larger. The record also marked the start of his involvement with the ‘Fast and Furious’ franchise.

Omar’s career took a detour after he received negative attention for failing to perform at a concert. Omar stated in his defence that the corporation did not give him flight tickets to get to the site. The matter was dismissed after both parties reached an agreement.
