The Authorship Story
Data Insight
The B2K manager Chris Stokes is the first constant, co-writing four of the thirteen tracks on the 2005 debut and six of the eleven on Ollusion in 2010. Omarion himself starts at four credits on that debut, takes seven of twelve on 21, then writes on every track of Ollusion and eleven of thirteen on Sex Playlist. It reads like a singer working his way into his own records, and then the paper trail stops: the four albums released since 2020 on his own label have no writing or production credits published anywhere, and the track lists come from MusicBrainz.
