On Christmas Day 2014, Trip Omon—then still a fresh voice in the industry—released The Righteous Kill Mixtape. At the time, no one knew this debut would be the first step in a decade-long journey that would see him shape and reshape his sound, leaving an indelible mark on the music scene.
With over 25 tracks pulled from more than 100 songs, the mixtape
was a bold introduction to his distinctive blend of genres, storytelling, and raw authenticity.
Ten years later, Trip Omon (Will Wayne Omon) reflects on a career marked by evolution, experimentation, and resilience. With five EPs, numerous mixtapes, and singles that continuously pushed the envelope, his journey has been about much more than music—it’s about personal growth and connecting with listeners on a deeper level.
Growing up as the youngest of nine siblings, Trip Omon’s household was a cauldron of musical influence. From gospel to pop, reggae to classical, his world was constantly flooded with sound.
But it was the energy and emotion of Rock and Hip-Hop that truly captured his heart. “Rock and Hip-Hop became my languages,” Trip Omon explains. “They were more than music—they were feelings, raw and unfiltered. They reflected everything I was going through, everything I wanted to express.”
Now, after a decade of honing his craft, Trip Omon is preparing to release “Breathe”—a song that encapsulates both his personal evolution and the universal truths he’s learned along the way.
Due for release on November 28, 2024, “Breathe” is not just another track—it’s a
meditation on life itself.
“I wrote this song for all of us,” Trip Omon shares. “We often forget how precious and fleeting life is. ‘Breathe’ is about embracing the chaos and finding peace in the simple act of breathing. It’s about acknowledging the battles we face—whether physical, emotional, or spiritual—and understanding that every breath, every moment, is a gift.”
The track is a powerful reflection on vulnerability, resilience, and the beauty of life’s quietest moments. Drawing inspiration from Trip Omon’s personal experiences with health struggles and his own journey of self-discovery, “Breathe” serves as a reminder to cherish the present and honor the silence between life’s louder moments.
For fans who’ve followed Trip Omon’s journey, “Breathe” will feel familiar: introspective, raw, and brutally honest. His ability to weave his personal struggles and triumphs into his music has always resonated with listeners, and this track is no different. With its thought-provoking lyrics and a sound that continues to blur genre lines, “Breathe” promises to be a standout in Trip Omon’s already impressive catalog.
As the artist looks ahead, his reflection on the past 10 years reveals both a sense of accomplishment and an eagerness to continue growing. “This is just the beginning,” he teases, hinting at new sounds, new collaborations, and new stories to tell.
The journey continues, and Trip Omon is ready to take his fans along for the ride.
