Famous Oberogo

Famous Oberogo (born 23 July 1999) is a Spanish singer and songwriter, known for winning Operación Triunfo 2018. He has also worked as a television and musical theater actor.

Early life Of Nigerian parents, he was born in the capital of the Netherlands, but due to inconveniences that presented to them soon after, they moved back to Nigeria. At the age of 6, he moved to the municipality of Bormujos, in the province of Seville, where he grew up.

He studied art at the Baccalaureate in Bormujos. He combined studies with a passion for music as he sang African gospel in church.

Career In 2018, at the age of 19, he competed in Operación Triunfo as one of the youngest in the edition. His career in the program captivated the audience and the professional jury, with which he reached the final and was proclaimed winner of the contest by popular vote.

After a tour of Spain with the other contestants, he focused on the production and release of his own songs. In August 2019, his first single, "Bulla", was released, which did not have much of an impact. Among others, he has collaborated with Disney and Loterías y Apuestas del Estado.

In February 2020, he left the Universal Music label to join Aloma Music Worldwide. Later, he founded the record label World Famous Music in Nigeria. Currently, however, he is an independent artist. He presented the unpublished song "La Lola", choreographed in part by Juan Montero, who stands out for having worked with Lola Índigo. It is the second time that he tried to represent Spain in Eurovision: when he competed in Operación Triunfo he submitted the song No puedo más.

He has established himself as an artist who mixes pop, urban sounds, Afrobeat and reggaeton, soul and gospel. In addition, he is part of the cast of the musical The Lion King as Mufasa in Madrid in 2022.

The singer has spoken out strongly against racism and xenophobia. Famous currently resides in Madrid.
