The wintery theme, coupled with his masked persona, connects to Omarion.
Omarion hails from from Inglewood, California, and his last name is Grandberry.

At the start of the package, the men in black are playing ring toss.
And what letter do the rings resemble?
O for Omarion (and his debut albumO), of course.
Then, Yeti is seen holding the letters ABCD in his hands.
The clip also features a stuffed brown dog and Happy New Year hats.
There’s also a reference to a “once in a lifetime role.”
While Omarion is best known as a singer, he’s appeared in numerous onscreen projects.
He made his film debut in the hit 2004 dance dramaYou Got Servedalongside his B2K bandmates.
Yeti also mentions that his nana was the first one to hold him when he was born.
And finally, peep one of the men in black cutting a rug with scissors.
These clues work for Omarion, as B2K had a No.

And no, we’re not making a mountain out of a bump molehill.
