Osama’s quick rise to stardom didn’t exactly happen overnight. He came up at the perfect time: in an era where audiences were fatigued—from the senseless TikTok acts that fell as quick as they rose, the carbon copy underground rappers of the early 2020s that all had the same preset, a pop wave that never transpired into a mainstream movement, and in general, from a period of music that never got the chance to flourish properly due to a global pandemic. With Osama’s unique spin on the darkplugg revival that was occurring in 2022 and 2023, combined with his bubbly personality that shined through his Thriller snippets and IG lives, he garnered a die-hard fanbase that ushered him into the spotlight of the underground, breaking him into a viral sensation that was everywhere on the internet by the time of July 21st, 2023, the day his debut mixtape, Osama Season, released. Although unlike many, Osama didn’t just take that moment, soak it in and cash in it for an early lottery ticket, he kept putting his foot on the pedal, releasing another project, Flex Musix, later that December, as well as a deluxe to the project two months later in February 2024.
Despite no major co-signs or industry machinery behind him, OsamaSon continues to set the pace for a new generation of rap—one powered by internet fandom, self-direction, and relentless output.
