O

The Stage was Dark and I Could Feel the Audience's Energy Building. I Closed My Eyes and Tried to take Myself into the Zone. Too much Stuff was Running Through my Head, Though. The Lights Flashed up and Just Before I Ran on I Took One Last Look Behind Me. I Knew the Guys Wouldn't Be There But I Looked Anyhow. I Took a Deep Breath and Hit the Stage.... After skyrocketing to fame with their hit single "Uh Huh," B2K seemed to have it all. But barely two years later the four friends succumbed to a rift so deep that three of them stopped showing up for sold-out shows. Lead singer Omari Grandberry was left with the intimidating prospect of facing their fans alone. In this intimate memoir, Omarion chronicles his Los Angeles childhood, how B2K came together, the ups and downs of instant brotherhood, the struggles of making it in entertainment, what really happened in the final days of B2K, and what's next for him-including starring in the Fat Albert movie, and more. Here is the story of a boy with the gift of song and dance raised in some of L.A.'s toughest neighborhoods, and how he ditched his "underage thug" complex to pursue his dream. Along the way, Omarion shares a more personal side, including his deep respect for the women who raised him and the roots of his spiritual foundation. In O, he once again takes center stage, revealing himself to be a thoughtful, funny, multifaceted artist with the talent and drive to make it on his own.Grandberry, Omari is the author of 'O ', published 2005 under ISBN 9781416503286 and ISBN 1416503285.
