O is the solo debut album by American R&B singer Omarion, released on February 22, 2005 via Epic Records. It features the Top 40 hit "O" (#27) and "Touch" (#94) and the highly disappointing single "I'm Tryna". The album received good reviews at stations like BET, but on stations like MTV and VH1 it was less successful. Despite entering at #1, the album only managed to sell 500,000 copies. It was believed to be a commercial failure and the company didn't understand after the singles had huge amounts of airplay. The album has sold 514,739 copies in the U.S. according to Nielsen Soundscan and over 1 million worldwide.
