Obika
Lemar
is a 24 year old Account Manager at a leading high street bank.
He
lives in London with his parents and is single but has been with
his girlfriend for 7 years.
Much
of his spare time is spent singing, writing songs and trying to
teach himself the basics of the piano.
He
loves going to the gym and is trying to get back to going five days
a week.
Lemar
has a background in music and has performed as support for various
artists in clubs all over Britain mainly in R&B clubs and has
been the warm up for groups including Destiny's Child.
Lemar
describes his music taste as Soul, R&B, Pop and Garage. His
favourite artists are Boyz II Men, Michael Jackson and Usher. But
he hates: "Heavy Metal, Candy Pop and songs that ooze cheese".
He
is deeply inspired by the Boyz II Men song Mama as: "it is
deep and makes me want to keep on doing what I'm doing to make my
Mum proud."
Lemar
believes he will bring a good sense of humour and adventure to the
Academy, be emotionally inquisitive and supportive to others.
His
party trick is that he has very bendy thumbs but he says that his
worst habit would be talking to himself. He also believes he may
be a little psychic and can interpret dreams.
