Omarion was the last member to join B2K, at age 14. He was introduced to Raz-B, J Boog and Lil' Fizz through Chris Stokes,IMX's manager.

Marques's mother died when he was young.

B2K disbanded in January 2004, right after appearing in the Screen Gems film You Got Served. Omarion went on to start a solo career, and has a solo debut LP, entitled O, to be released through Epic Records on February 22 2005.

Omarion became the first star ever to be on Punk'd twice (the only other star went on Punk'd twice is Jesse Metcalfe). First appearance on Punk'd is when Omarion went a date with a girl and her father gets upset against Omarion. His second appearance on Punk'd is when Omarion sets up his half-brother Marques Houston to help broke up with Omarion's girlfriend because the actress played Omarion's girlfriend is pregnant.
