Omer Fedi

Omer Fedi is an Israeli record producer, songwriter, and musician who has become one of the most reliable architects of chart-topping pop hits. Born in Tel Aviv and now based in Los Angeles, Fedi co-wrote and produced four Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles: 24kGoldn's "Mood," Lil Nas X's "Montero (Call Me by Your Name)," Sam Smith and Kim Petras's "Unholy," and the Kid Laroi and Justin Bieber's "Stay." His production credits also include Machine Gun Kelly's number-one album Tickets to My Downfall and the Kid Laroi and Juice Wrld's platinum single "Go!" XXL magazine named him one of the best hip-hop producers of 2020. Fedi has won multiple Grammy Awards and BMI Awards, and was recognized by Variety as a Hitmaker of the Month in 2021. He maintains a low public profile, letting his work as a behind-the-scenes hitmaker define his reputation. As of 2026, he continues to produce and write for various artists, including co-writing Sienna Spiro's song "Pure" from her debut album Visitor. His birth sign is Aries, and he is 26 years old.

Fedi grew up in Tel Aviv in a deeply musical household. At age ten, he switched to guitar, inspired by Drake Bell's character on the Nickelodeon show Drake & Josh. His early influences included Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, John Frusciante, the Strokes, and Steely Dan.

When Fedi was 16, he and his father moved to Los Angeles to pursue greater musical opportunities, arriving with no industry connections. Fedi enrolled at Calabasas High School, where he joined the school's jazz ensemble. His guitar playing quickly drew attention; a jazz clinician remarked that Fedi "could speak through the instrument" when playing.

Fedi's first industry break came through meeting songwriter Sam Hook while still in high school. "Sam helped me a lot, I used to finish school and go straight to his house and make music," Fedi told Variety. Hook was the first to tell Fedi, "You're not just a guitar player; you gotta produce and write songs." Fedi initially knew nothing about the music industry and learned about figures like Andrew Watt through Hook. He also demonstrated early initiative by directly contacting the Kid Laroi via social media to begin collaborating, recognizing the Australian artist's potential before he broke through. [edit]

Fedi's breakthrough came in 2020 when he co-produced 24kGoldn's "Mood" featuring Iann Dior, which peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and amassed over 190 million YouTube views. That same year, he co-produced the Kid Laroi and Juice Wrld's "Go!," which went platinum, and Machine Gun Kelly's album Tickets to My Downfall, which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. XXL magazine named Fedi one of the best hip-hop producers of 2020.

In 2021, Fedi co-wrote and produced Lil Nas X's "Montero (Call Me by Your Name)," which hit number one on the Hot 100. He also co-wrote and produced the Kid Laroi and Justin Bieber's "Stay," which also reached number one, and co-wrote the Kid Laroi's "Without You." The following year, he co-wrote and produced Sam Smith and Kim Petras's "Unholy," his fourth number-one single. Fedi won his first Grammy Awards for his contributions, including a shared win for Album of the Year as a producer on Lizzo's Special. In 2023, he worked with Reneé Rapp on her debut album Snow Angel, collaborating with Blake Slatkin and Michael Pollack. As of 2026, Fedi co-wrote Sienna Spiro's song "Pure" from her debut album Visitor, released on Capitol Records. [edit]

Fedi maintains a low public profile, letting his music speak for itself. Industry insiders describe him as a "secret weapon" and "hitmaker" who prefers to work behind the scenes. His production style blends guitar-driven pop-punk and emo rap elements with hip-hop and R&B, reflecting his jazz training and rock influences. He does not have an official fandom name. His social media presence is understated compared to the artists he works with, and he rarely gives interviews. Fedi is known for his quote: "In Israel, there's kind of a ceiling as to how far you can go in music, but nothing here can stop me." [edit]

Omer Fedi operates in the rarefied air of sonic architecture, building global anthems while remaining a ghost in the machine. His audience is not a unified legion shouting his name from stadium bleachers but a scattered collective of music nerds and industry insiders who revere his technical mastery. Unlike the mass-mobilized fandoms of his collaborators, Fedi's following lacks a formal identity or organized campaigns; there is no "Fedi-fam" to coordinate billboard drops or chart manipulation. The few existing digital outposts are small, informal corners where enthusiasts celebrate his guitar prowess rather than a personality cult. This absence of a cohesive fanbase underscores his role as a behind-the-scenes secret weapon, letting the hits speak for themselves. Despite this quiet profile, his cultural footprint is undeniable through the billions of streams generated by tracks like "Mood," "Montero (Call Me by Your Name)," and "Stay." He has achieved a level of professional dominance that defines an era without needing to be the face of it. According to iFANN's Global Fame Engine evaluation conducted in August 2026, Omer Fedi is currently evaluated but does not hold a placement in the published rankings. He is not ranked among the Global Top 1,000 nor does he appear on any Top-100 scope list. While he commands immense respect within the production community, his public fame metrics do not yet translate into a specific ordinal position in the worldwide hierarchy.[edit]

Born in Tel Aviv on March 25, 2000, Fedi moved to Los Angeles with zero industry connections before becoming one of pop music's most prolific architects. A multi-instrumentalist skilled on guitar, bass, drums, and keyboards, his jazz training deeply informs his signature blend of rock textures and hip-hop beats. He credits Drake Bell's character on *Drake & Josh* as the spark that ignited his love for the guitar. His father, Asher Fedi, passed away in 2025. Beyond his personal history, Fedi has cultivated a modern legend rooted in sheer statistical dominance. At just 21 years old in 2021, he became the only producer to secure multiple number-one singles simultaneously, including "Mood," "Without You," and "Montero (Call Me by Your Name)." Fans and critics alike retell the origin story of Bruno Mars and Rose's hit "APT.", which began as a casual drinking game over McDonald's before Fedi helped transform the improvisation into a global phenomenon. These moments have cemented his reputation as the invisible mastermind behind the sounds of Gen Z.[edit]

Fedi's father, Asher Fedi (1970–2025), was a renowned drummer in Israel, described by MTV as one of the most accomplished and well-respected drummers in the country. Asher taught young Omer to play drums from an early age, before Omer switched to guitar at age ten. His mother is also Israeli. The entire family moved to Los Angeles when Fedi was 16. Fedi does not have any publicly known siblings or pets. He currently lives in Los Angeles, keeping his personal life private. [edit]

Fedi frequently collaborates with fellow producer Blake Slatkin, as well as Andrew Watt and Sam Hook, who served as his early mentor. He has worked with a wide range of artists including Lil Nas X, the Kid Laroi, 24kGoldn, Machine Gun Kelly, Sam Smith, Kim Petras, Justin Bieber, Juice Wrld, Lizzo, Reneé Rapp, and Sienna Spiro. He was in a long-term relationship with TikTok star and actress Addison Rae from 2021 to 2025. [edit]

Fedi began dating TikTok star and actress Addison Rae in June 2021. They made their red carpet debut together at the 2022 Grammy Awards in Las Vegas, where they posed hand-in-hand and showed PDA. The relationship lasted approximately four years. According to reports from October 2025, the couple separated around that time, with the split described as amicable. Rae reportedly chose to focus on her career. No children were involved. As of 2026, Fedi is reported as single with no new public relationships confirmed. [edit]

His wealth stems primarily from songwriting royalties, production fees, and publishing rights. As the co-writer and producer behind four Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles, he accumulates significant mechanical and performance royalties. Additional revenue flows from album production work, such as Machine Gun Kelly's *Tickets to My Downfall* and Lizzo's *Special*, alongside sync licensing and producer points on streaming revenue. He remains signed to Universal Music Publishing Group. Fedi maintains strict privacy regarding his financial affairs, with no major endorsement deals or business ventures publicly documented. Per iFANN's editorial analysis, his net worth stands at $8 Million.[edit]

Fedi has won multiple Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year as a producer on Lizzo's Special. He has also won iHeartRadio Music Awards and BMI Awards for his songwriting and production. In 2018, he won the Outstanding Performer award at the Reno Jazz Festival. Variety recognized him as a Hitmaker of the Month in 2021. [edit]
