Summary
For this episode I spoke to singer, guitarist and producer Omar Apollo. A first-generation Mexican-American, Omar grew up in South Haven, Indiana and taught himself to play guitar and make beats on YouTube. He began to generate buzz online in 2017 with his soulful debut single ‘Ugotme’ which blew up on streaming services. And he followed up with two independently released EPs, ‘Stereo’ and ‘Friends’, in 2018 and 2019 consecutively. I sat down with Omar the day of his sold out London show at Heaven in December, to discuss his journey so far. ---------- My debut book, "Life Lessons from Hip-Hop" is available now: geni.us/LifeLessonsFromHipHop ---------- @OmarApollo @GrantBrydon ---------- Artwork by @smithsmithsmithsmith Music by @kiina_dd
