Travis Omen

Behind the mask.

Travis Omen is a Calgary-based emcee known for his work with Project Trybe and live hip-hop band Midwest Mindset. With more than a decade in the game, his catalogue spans seven albums, countless performances, rap battles and a reputation built on real stage presence and sharp lyricism.

Following the release of his concept project Dreams Come Tru / Nightmares 2 and a successful $6,000 crowdfunding campaign, Travis continued building his sound and visual world through Truability. His current project, 89 Octane, blends 1980s-inspired production with authentic hip-hop.

In 2024, he won the first official songwriting contest held by D12's Kuniva and Swifty McVay, earning a collaboration on their record It Is What It Aint.

On November 7, 2026, Travis won the Loud Sessions Calgary competition at Arrowhead Event Centre, taking home a $750 cash prize. Eight rappers competed live in front of a large audience, each aiming to win over the crowd and the judges.

Expect to see Travis Omen back on stage soon at a Nightshift Entertainment concert in Alberta, with a performance spot included as part of his Loud Sessions prize. Stay tuned for show details.
