- “Cheerleader” was eight years in the making. “I woke up humming the melody one morning when I was 21,” says OMI, who still lives in Clarendon, the sleepy village he grew up in, a stone’s throw from Kingston.
- “Omi” means “grandma” in German. That’s just one foreign word he’s picked up on his many international jaunts as the song ascended the charts. But “Omi,” short for Omar, is simply the nickname his dad used to call him.
- OMI hasn’t found his real-life cheerleader yet. His last serious girlfriend was eight years ago, right around the time he began writing the song. “I’m not looking for a ‘yes’ woman, but a strong person who knows when to be objective and when not to be,” he says.
- He’s preparing his full-length debut album for a fall release. “People are expecting 15 [versions of] ‘Cheerleader,’ but it’s going to be pretty diverse, with a few features and songs written from different perspectives.”
