Omar Kadir is the Bay Area, CA’s own songwriter and dancer combination. In a little over one year, Omar took his social media presence from a few thousand to over 700K followers and subscribers between YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook alone. Using a combination of dance and music, he has carved out a significant niche amongst other artists in his genre to create a strong foundation for his brand.  

Omar has worked to build a significant amount of traction amongst the online streaming platforms. His two singles “Catch Up” and “The Last Thing I Do” exploded on the official Spotify playlists Most Necessary and Love, Sex, and Water. The fan support on Spotify has brought “Catch Up” to 7 million streams and “The Last Thing I Do” to 3 million streams. The support also bleeds over into Soundcloud and YouTube with “The Last Thing I Do” breaking the 900,000 mark on Soundcloud and over 675,000 views on YouTube. With all of the support across all of his online platforms, Omar continues to grow the attention to help him pivot into new opportunities.

The Bay Area entertainer is now starting off his 2019 with an extremely strong start. He linked up with Mozzy to record four songs currently, and the first release under those recordings became a First Alert on Sirius XM’s Hip Hop Nation. Sirius XM got the first listen on March 20th (2019), and it had 1700 Shazam’s on the single prior to it hitting DSP’s on March 22nd (2019). Billboard stated in their review that “this reflective track has heated up the streets.”

In the dance world, Omar was a Top 50 contender of the Los Angeles division of So You Think You Can Dance Season 2.  Being a self-taught, urban street dancer of over 15 years in the styles of Popping, Locking, and B-Boying, Omar has traveled across the nation as a member of Flex Flave/Zulu Nation, competing and winning numerous solo dance competitions. His growth and history in urban dance have given him a deeper connection and understanding of the roots of the Hip Hop culture.
