About Me

Omar Days

aka Lil’ Man or O.Diddy or Omar X (*britt-Ish rapper/emcee)

Omar Days (born in Edmonton, North London) whose first given name “Omar” means ‘first son; long-lived; gifted speaker; flourishing; disciple and famous’ in Arabic is a member of brand spankin’ new UK hip hop collective TAOS (Taking Advantage of Sound).

Mr Days is an articulate and passionate young man who doesn't pull any punches. As an Edmonton resident and a well-respected individual amongst Edmonton's youth, he has first hand experience of the issues facing our young people today. Known for his blend of street and popular style, he is able to evoke vivid visual and aural imagery in a humorous manner. Omar can compose lyrics without the use of pen and paper (Wow)! He has been able to adapt well under any beat or producer and has been consistent in writing good quality lyrics and punch-lines, as well as using a sophisticated, unique, and adaptable flow.

Omar Days has endeavoured to establish himself in a wide variety of fields outside of his rapping career. Omar is a supporter of revolutionary principles, a prominent community activist, professional speaker, philanthropist, political philosopher, poet, protagonist, PR & AR executive, executive record producer, songwriter, arranger, actor, entertainer, entrepreneur, event organiser, clothing designer, playwright, storytelling genius, punch line specialist and the list goes on... He has also pursued an acting career from 1991, appearing in films, dramas, theatre shows and television commercials. Omar has the potential to become one of the most recognised charismatic figures in the UK.

Omar Days is President and CEO of Flip Dat Quick Recordings and Pay Days Entertainment, in addition he is a co-CEO of Bloodline Music Group(indie recording company). His business interests include hip-hop/grime act ‘Meridian Bloodline’ (he has just finished working with 9 Milli Major on his soon-to-be-released debut mixtape "Pray For Me", and is currently working with Big H on his "Street Crime UK" cd), and community organisation “IEGDC” (Independent Edmonton Green Development Committee) a community-based group of young people working towards ensuring that funds intended for the procurement and management of youth facilities are allocated accordingly and that young people are given a say as to how these facilities are used (basically the whole point is to raise awareness about the lack of youth facilities in the Edmonton area and to hold Enfield Council accountable for smuggling away thousands of pounds of funds that should have been spent on youth facilities).

Buy Pray For Me NOW!!!


Buy Pray For Me NOW!!!

9 Milli Major is a fast paced, charismatic rapper from Edmonton, London; predominately Grime MC! He has released his debut mixtape, called Pray For Me, hosted by fellow Bloodline crew member Paper Pablo.

The opening song, “Rep The Set” is a classic grime anthem! With a street beat and aggressive, fast laced rhymes Major gives us a treat in this song. The next standout is the title track, Pray For Me. With a slightly more mellow beat, but Major doesn't calm his lyrics down, with yet more rapid fire vocals resulting in an infectious track. Then comes the interesting Street Life with an impressive beat from Skepta, using some nice guitar and piano effects. Major definitely rocks this instrumental, slowing down his lyrics slightly, but still faster than most other dudes out there on the grime circuit. The lyrics are definitely directed towards the street, referencing life on the council estates of the UK capital countless times, be it good or bad, Major infects you with the references! Following this great track comes 96 Bars; arguably the best track on the mixtape, using the well known JME beat from the song of the same name. Major really impresses with his incredible freestyle skills, if the cover of the CD didn't tell you this was freestyled you'd have no idea. This song really shows you that Major is a lyricist predominately! Destruction Derby is the next track to grab your attention. Both Major and grime legend Big H rock an incredible beat with intelligent lyrics with complex structure's from both artists! 9's Up is another banger in a mixtape full of them. Again a big beat that is a classic grime sound really suits Major's flow, but this time he brings along Cookie G, who is a talent waiting to be properly developed but definitely has skills, and also he has senior Bloodline member President T as a guest here, who always puts in a good performance. Following that is War Collabo, which is one of the strongest tracks. Major really stands out alongside greats in the game such as Big Narstie, Wretch 32 and Scorcher. All of these MCs compliment each others styles. And the minimalist production actually works here! Voices is another strong track which really sounds like Major was just letting loose in the booth. This track really conveys emotion well. Another song like this is the closer, No Choice. A great soulful beat, but still Major keeps it grimy.

Major has produced what could be a classic in the grime genre!

We are influenced by the quality of life we are exposed to. "Omar Days"


Sounds Like: "He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the almighty.

I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust."

Surely He will save you from the fowler's snare
and from the deadly pestilence.

He will cover you with His feathers,
And under His wings you will find refuge;
His faithfulness will be your sheild and rampart.

You will not fear the terror of night,
Nor the arrow that flies by day,

Nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
Nor the plague that destroys at midday.

A thousand may fall at your side
Ten thousand at your right hand,
But it will not come near you.

You will only observe with your eyes
And see the punishment of the wicked.

If you make the Most High your dwelling -
Even the Lord, who is my refuge -

Then no harm will befall you,
No disaster will come near your tent.

For He will command His angels concerning you
To guard you in all your ways;

They will lift you up in their hands,
So that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

You will tread upon the lion and the cobra;
You will trample the Great Lion and the Serpent.

"Because he loves me," says the Lord, "I will rescue him;
I will protect Him, for he acknowledges my name.

He will call upon me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honour him.

With long life will i satisfy him
and show him my salvation!!!"
...Psalm 91 -

God Bless the child that can hold his own!

A wise woman once told me, "If you can't be good, be careful!"
