Blending both pop and R&B, “For War” is a grown, smooth R&B ballad with Omarion’s vocals creating a vulnerable reflection on love and heartache. Get it here.
“For War” is the lead single from his album O2, which world premieres today on iHeartRadio in power rotation, with the record playing every hour on the hour. “For War” is a true ballad — a story of the struggles of love and the fight to stay together; about choosing to battle through the hardest moments to prove that what’s shared is worth the war. Emotionally, the song speaks to passion and pain while exploring healing and sacrifice, toxicity, jealousy, and ego. Visually, it’s dark, moody, and intense — depicting the raw imagery of passion, pain, and sacrifice.
Recently, Omarion made appearances on Tamron Hall, The Joe Budden Podcast, and more, all of which boasted rave reviews and praised “For War,” with The Joe Budden Podcast crowning him “R&B royalty.” Omarion says, “If love is the battlefield, ‘For War’ is the anthem for the warriors who fight with heart, not ego. Some fight for fame, some fight for love — but ‘For War’ reminds you the real battle is keeping your peace when the world tests your soul.”
Released in partnership with Create Music Group, the world’s leading independent music and entertainment company, Omarion’s upcoming album O2 will be released in 2026. The project pays homage to his debut solo album O.
