Oshri’s music career took off when he won the first ever South African TRACE Music Stars competition in 2014. The show was mentored by Wyclef Jean and broadcasted on Trace Urban, the second largest music video television network in the world.
Oshri was invited to perform at the Trace Urban Music Awards in Paris of 2015, after which he was approached by the American pop/R&B singer, Akon to sign to his label. Shortly after, the deal was finalized and Oshri began working on his EP with songwriter, Mike Campbell. In the past, Campbell is best known for co-writing the song, Say Something, by Christina Aguilera and Great Big World.
Oshri’s music style is heavily influenced by his family cultural diversity. With french and middle eastern parents, his unique background creates a one-of-a-kind sound.
