About

Omarii, The Aura is a 25-year-old multi-hyphenate from Johannesburg, South Africa, who began making music at 11, performing a World Cup-themed jingle that earned him top marks in class. This sparked a passion that helped him overcome bullying and low self-esteem.

Omarii's music career took off in high school, recording tracks on his phone and friend's MacBook. He eventually saved up to record in a studio by selling sweets and snacks. His hard work paid off with multiple award nominations, including three at the 011 Awards (2019) and three at the African Social Entertainment Awards. (2020)

Omarii's style blends contrasting influences, reflecting his thoughts, emotions, and experiences. He cites AKA, Kendrick Lamar, and Anderson Paak as inspirations, admiring their fearless creativity. Through his company, Lotus Push, Omarii explores other disciplines, with several projects slated for release.

With performances like the Road to Vegas Livestream Festival 2022, where he opened for Anthony Hamilton, Omarii is making waves in the music scene. His unique sound and creative vision are poised to take him to new heights.
