Oren Major is Atlanta’s new aggressively conscious lyricist. The 24 year-old St. Louis native’s life has already changed in a “Major” way this year with the release of his debut album “Blinded by Ambition.” The piece serves as a gritty yet soulful tale of life in America for the average young black male. Oren’s content connects with people on a deep-rooted level like that of a young Kanye, with influences of J. Cole and Lauryn Hill adding a freshly nostalgic air.
In 2015 Oren started a Independent label, “Days Of Noah” or DON40 for short, serving as a family and foundation for the artistic rebels. He explains, “DON40 is a team of fearless fighters of self expression… individuals who choose to be the sacrificial lamb for their own destiny.” He’s currently focusing on building a stronger online presence and following to expand his brand. When asked what it is that sets him apart from the average artist, Oren responded, “The leaders of tomorrow were falsely imprisoned yesterday, and use that knowledge to fuel the uprise of their people today. I have every reason to push the boundaries and make a difference. My passion, my agenda, and my ambition is unmatched. I deserve to succeed, and my people deserve a role model. If not me, then who?” We couldn’t agree more.
