“What’s in a name? O-Solo has all the elements of emcee superstars before him: a striking voice, charisma and wit, effortless wordplay and flow, and songs that hit from Miami to Manhattan. When it comes to his sound and style, however, the Jersey rapper seeks no companion or comparison, no equal or precedent. In an industry where acts leap on the beaten path and exit just as quickly, that’s a good thing.” – Gregory Johnson, writer (The Source, Spin, King, Complex, Oneworld, Vibe)

I’m O-Solo…the Last Level of Rap (aka Kid chorus). I’m 23 years old from Irvington, New Jersey (Newark). Just prepare yourself for the Last Level.
Why did you pick the stage name O-Solo?
When my brother was in jail and my cousin was away, I went around and battle people on the streets. I used to battle 9 people at a time…I came out the winner in all those battles and my best-friend, Houlihan gave me that name after he saw me come out of the battles solo, by myself…O-Solo.
When did you first realize you wanted to pursue rapping as a career?
I become interested in music ever since I was 7 years old, singing in church. I was the lead singer in Jesus is Coming Baptist Church on Springfield Avenue in Newark. I had a really high pitched voice back then but as my voice deepened, I began to rap. I had an opportunity to attend a seminar for rappers and met Scarface. He offered me a record deal but I was signed at the time. I appeared on BET’s 106 & Park Freestyle Friday and was four times champion.
