Established in early 2008, OxyMoron, a duo consisting of two college students, Omar "O" Singleton and Clementia "Ment" Nelson, are on their way to the top. Named OxyMoron because of the differences in their rap styles, these South Carolina teens bring a creative sound that has grabbed the attention of recording artists, college students across the nation, music executives, and even CNN. During election week 2008, their single, "America" featuring Barack Obama was featured on CNN during an iReport segment. (Link to video is listed below).
Within the past year, these guys have shown their determination to be known by doing everything from entering talent shows on campus, performing in dorm rooms for other students, performing in local clubs, and even taking a 7 hour drive to Baltimore, Maryland just to record songs. Ment elaborates, "I felt it was a great opportunity...we were all broke, so buying studio time was a problem for us." He goes on to add, "O [Omar] had a connect in Baltimore who would allow us free studio time, so we figured, 'Why not.' We hopped in my car, broke as hell, but we were confident that we were making a good move".
Teamed with producer, Marcus "M.Rave" Raven and vocalist, Jacoby Frazier, OxyMoron plans to "bring a new vibe to a generation plagued with violence and drug themes". The group likes to think of themselves as being the realest musicians out of South Carolina since James Brown. Knowing how bold of a statement that is, they feel as if their music supports that bold statement. Omar adds, "We appreciate James Brown amongst a lot of other musicians, not just rappers." Group influences include The Beatles, James Brown, Lupe Fiasco, Kanye West, Lauryn Hill, Prince, Little Brother, OutKast, and Michael Jackson, just to name a few.
Be on the lookout for OxyMoron in 2009, and make sure to check them out on MySpace and Facebook for exclusive music.
