Omar Wilson has been captivating audiences across New York City and Connecticut for over a decade, opening for legends like Boys II Men and The Neville Brothers. Growing up in Norwalk, Connecticut—just 30 minutes from NYC—he was inspired by musical greats like Sam Cooke, Donny Hathaway, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Lauryn Hill, and Mary J. Blige. Their influence shaped Omar’s signature style—a soulful, passionate sound that blends raw emotion with urban storytelling and bridges the gap between Hip Hop and Soul.
At only seven years old, members of Calvary Baptist Church in Norwalk recognized his spiritual gift. It was here that Omar discovered his calling: Soul Music. As he grew, fans gravitated to his gritty, heartfelt voice, drawn to its honesty and power. This rising talent quickly earned three Apollo Theater wins and the title of Best R&B Male of the Year for two consecutive years at the Underground Music Awards in New York City.
Omar’s journey has led him to work with industry heavyweights. He collaborated with multi-platinum artist Angie Stone on the moving track Get to Know You Better—Stone herself said, “Working with Omar Wilson came naturally—he is one to watch!” He then joined forces with DMX on the powerful single Faith, one of the late rap legend’s rare collaborations with a singer, creating a track filled with energy, grit, and heart.
His music has been featured on BET, Music Choice, Sirius XM, and radio stations worldwide, reaching listeners far beyond his East Coast roots. Videos like Get to Know You Better have gained international exposure, while his singles continue to climb independent charts and win over new fans.
Now, Omar Wilson is ready for his next chapter. His upcoming single, Passion, drops this fall—a song that promises to deliver the same authenticity, power, and soul that have defined his journey so far.
This is more than music—it’s a movement. Get ready, because the era of Omar Wilson is here.
