Fauntleroy is one of the best songwriters and producers of the last fifteen years. Over the last decade, he has worked on a number of incredible projects including G.O.O.D Music’s Cruel Summer, J. Cole’s Born Sinner and Rihanna’s Anti. He was also nominated for a GRAMMY Award for his work on Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp A Butterfly.
As for Omarion, he is coming off of the release of a new single called “Can You Hear Me?” featuring T-Pain. Prior to the COVID-19 outbreak, Omarion was scheduled to continue the second act of the Millennium Tour with Bow Wow. A new album would mark his first new solo album since 2014’s Sex Playlist.
