Posted on May 3rd, 2012 by ThisIsRnB in NEWS |

Fresh off announcing his signing to Maybach Music Group, Omarion appeared on BET’s “106 & Park” alongside his new boss Rick Ross and MMG labelmates Wale and Meek Mill.

“Ya’ll make some noise for the newest member of MMG, Omarion,” said Rozay, who explained how they linked up.

“It really boiled down to the music. He came down to Miami, we got in the studio. He recorded close to a dozen records and I was just so impressed, not to mention the fact he’s an entertainer, songwriter, actor, dancer. I just thought it was a great move and I wanted to see the homie shine.”

The former B2K member, who was previously signed to Young Money, explained why he decided to join Ross’ camp. “I think the relationship, bonding with somebody comes first,” said Maybach O. “I’ve been doing this for a long time and God has blessed me. More than anything, I really respect and I really like the way he moves like a boss. It takes one to know one.”

Omarion plans to release an EP and has already shot a video for his first single “Let’s Talk” featuring Rick Ross.
