[edit] Background

Omarion has been on a rollercoaster with being released and signed to different labels trying to find the perfect home. He asked for a release from Sony BMG in early 2009, in mid-August he was announced on the roster of Lil Wayne's label Young Money Entertainment. After rumors surfaced that he was dropped for leaking "I Get It In" later that week it was proven to be false as an interview with Lil Wayne[5] himself he stated that it was 'just business' and Omarion asked for the release. With that he parted ways with the label this was mainly because of a better opportunity that had come his way and signed with EMI. He released Ollusion on his own imprint, StarrWorld Entertainment.[6]

[edit] Singles

  • "I Get It In" Which features Gucci Mane, was released as the first single. The song peaked at number eighty-three in the United States and number twenty on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.
