Watch OMI Perform ‘Cheerleader’ on BBC Radio 1Xtra


 
Jamaican singer OMI recently performed his reggae-pop hit “Cheerleader” on BBC Radio 1Xtra’s “Live Lounge.”
 
A remix of the song by German DJ/producer Felix Jaehn has gone number one in over a dozen countries and is quickly gaining momentum in the US.
 
Last week, Shazam’s VP of Product Cait O’Riordan said that “Cheerleader” will be Billboard’s next number one hit. Billboard’s data supports the prediction, too, as the track has jumped from number 95 to number 63 in just two weeks on the Hot 100 chart.
