I just realized that this samples "Moments In Love" by the Art of Noise. Wow! That's a subtle sample. :o

Just two years ago, Omarion was riding the top of the R&B and pop charts with B2K. Now, the former lead singer of the since-imploded boy group is attempting to accomplish that feat on his own. He's well on his way with the single "O," which doubles as the title track to his forthcoming solo album (due Feb. 22). The silky, arousing ballad leaves no doubt as to Omarion's intentions. At one point, the singer, who acknowledges that he is "young but I'm ready," tells his beloved to "Let me hear you say O/When you can't make another sound." The song's tastefully heated subject matter is reminiscent of another singer whose teen-to-manhood transition resulted in a No. 1 record. (That would be Mario and "Let Me Make Love to You.") Judging by this performance, Omarion should have no trouble reigniting the female swoon factor that made B2K a potent force.—GM

Omarion cant sing point blank. All he do his whine whine whine through the whole entire song but like always here comes the production overshadowing that saving the music. Omarion could actually be a great artist if he could sing.
