2005

OCTOBER
Omar has taken part in DJ swing's quest for a donor by giving blood and supporting the DJ Swings campaign. You may of heard of DJ Swing's appeal for a bone marrow transplant, but many of you probably haven't listened to it. All that's needed of you is a simple blood test to determine whether or not you're eligible to be a match. If you go to any hospital and request a blood test and then ask for the data to be uploaded onto the national bone marrow database you could be saving a life. That's all you need to do!

Omar has been busy in the studio, this time working on other peoples projects, Shola Ama and Kele LeRoc to name a few.

Did you see Omar performing with Mica Paris and Nate James at the Mobo tribute to Luther Vandross?

We can reveal the new title of Omar's next album, it will be called "Sing" (if you want it). The art work is near completion, yes it's been a long wait but expect an early 2006 release. Listen to a sneak preview of more tracks - Kiss it Right & Your Mess.

Omar spread his wings, Omar recently did a interview for an Australian magazine the article is due out in January - when we know more so will you.
