Album Notes

The consummate artist! Omari is a poet, actor, close friend and undoubtedly an old soul. His artistry is unique, insightful and rooted in the art of word. Omari is a poet. What made this album a challenge was to capture such a great performer and spoken word artist while maintaining a musical form. This is definitely not your typical spoken word album! This album came together with ease, a synergy of distinct personalities and backgrounds all coming together to inspire a truly unique album. The collaboration of writers, poets, and musicians coming together to synthesize a spoken word album that you can listen to over and over and stands alone.
