27th of October, Omar performed at the Aztec Theatre along with an opening performance from
Ravyn Lenae. Omar’s performance had the entire crowd dancing and singing along with him. He
sang a mix of chill, slow, and playful songs. He was energetic and extremely interactive with the
audience. After a few songs, he would point out people in the crowd and talk with them for a few
seconds. He encouraged audience members to sing along with him and never failed to amaze
with his stunning vocals. The crowd was filled with devoted fans that had Omar smiling the
entire time.
