"CM Punk flow, this fuckin' mic is a pipebomb
Hulk Hogan’s 24 inch pythons
Ain’t thick as this fuckin Dilla Dawg bass-line"
Ok, we’re all probably familiar with who Hulk Hogan is and what his 24 inch pythons are (at least I hope no one has any other ideas), so let’s focus on the other guy mentioned; CM Punk—the self proclaimed “Best in the World”. If there’s a picture in the dictionary for the word “self-promotion”, it would be of a rapper with this guy next to him. That’s the name of both games these days—talk yourself up and other’s might start believing you.
“Pipebomb” is a term coined by the former WWE Champion to describe the mic when he’s on it and about to spit the truth, and you know Omar is here to do the same. Shouts out to J.Dilla too - Rap Genius

Bio
Middle fingers & tunnel vision is the personal and professional mantra for the independent rap artist and producer, Aaron Omar. Once a goal is set, Aaron Omar will show disdain for anything designed to deter or distract. This mantra is best reflected in his music.
Aaron Omar grew up in Roosevelt, NY in a house owned by his grandfather, an independent photographer, and that house was always filled with music. From Motown, Stax Records and classic jazz to the Hip Hop Soul movement pioneered by Sean "Diddy" Combs and Mary J. Blige, something was always playing. His introduction to rap music would come outside of the house. Wu Tang Clan, Snoop Dogg, Nas, LL Cool J and the Notorious B.I.G. would soon become early favorites.
In 2000, out of pure curiosity, Aaron Omar decided to write a rap song and eventually fell in love with the creative process. In 2009, after meeting and befriending several fellow songwriters and producers, he released a compilation mixtape titled The Cool Table, which received a great response from all who heard. The rest, as is commonly said, is history.
As part of the group Fresh/High Society, 2 projects were released: (UN)Popular Couture in 2010 and the sequel in 2012 which featured the poplar single Solar Powered produced by Ski Beatz and the remix featuring Camp Lo. Aaron Omar released For The Free, a free mixtape, in 2012 and the follow up, For The Free 2, in 2013 which featured The Montebello, produced by Fuse 100 of 808 Mafia.
AO's newest project, War Stories & Love Letters, was released on August 12th and features the popular songs Liar and Live Forever. Mostly self-produced, the EP also features production from Mylon, Travis Mendes and Ski Beatz and has been featured on All Hip Hop, That's Enuff (DJ Enuff's blog), Best of Both Offices, You Heard That New and many others. On September 27th, Aaron Omar will be performing songs from this project as part of the Fabolous & Friends show at BB King's in NYC.
