Owen Leuellen releases debut single ‘My Time’

Owen Leuellen has just released his debut single and music video titled ‘My Time’. 

The rapper shot to fame on X Factor Season 1 where he secured his runner-up title in the Finals. His good looks, rapping & song writing skills made him an immediate favorite amongst the X Factor Judges, but it was his stage presence & charisma that really got the audience to instantly fall in love with him. 

Probably one of the most iconic & memorable moments from the first season was when Ira Losco invited him to feature on her hit single ‘Hey Now’ & her magical words ‘he’s the man –Owen Leuellen’ turned out to be a very popular catch phrase amongst the locals. The singer-songwriter had mentioned in his room audition that he had written numerous songs already. In fact his album, which is nearly finalized is currently undergoing the final touches. 

‘My Time’ is the first track chosen by Jagged House to pave way for his upcoming debut album. The track is focused on highlighting that it’s his turn in the game after all the time working hard to enter the music industry. As the track goes “This is my time to shine” 

The music video directed by  Steve Levi Vella, starts off with Owen tied to a chair,  referring to when he was locked out of the game with no way to enter. “Steve instantly understands what we’re after but above all he understands what the song needs & what the artist is all about. “ Howard Keith added “ Having worked with him on numerous music videos, he’s practically an integral part of our team as is Matthew Muscat Drago – DOP. The album is planned for a definite release later on this year.” 

“I never thought that I’d make it out” is a line that stands out showing how he was loosing confidence back in the start. He’s worked extremely hard to get here & that’s clearly reflected in his lyrics. 

Owen Leuellen highlighted “Some scenes show a figure of a boy writing lyrics on a paper and rapping, representing my childhood writing songs when I had absolutely nothing“.

Other scenes show how he stood for his fans and how from just one kid it turned into a huge following hence crowd surfing And celebrating his debut in this industry 

The moral of the story behind it is that hard work pays off and now it’s time to celebrate the success he worked for and deserves.
