Otilia

Otilia Brumă, professionally known as Otilia, is a Romanian singer and songwriter born on 13 June 1992 in Suceava, Romania. She is best known internationally for her dance-pop hit “Bilionera,” which became her breakthrough release in 2014.

Otilia developed an interest in music from an early age. Before becoming internationally known, she performed at local musical events and appeared on local television in Romania. During the early stage of her career, she performed under the stage name Bijue before adopting Otilia as her professional name.

Her career changed significantly following the release of “Bilionera.” The song attracted listeners outside Romania and became particularly successful in countries including Turkey, Greece, Bulgaria, Pakistan and India. Its international popularity helped Otilia develop an audience across Europe, Asia and other markets.

Following “Bilionera,” Otilia continued building an international catalogue with songs including “Aventura,” “Passion,” “Diamante,” “Prisionera,” “Adelante” and “Deli Gibi.” Her recordings frequently combine dance-pop with Latin, house and reggaeton influences.

Otilia has also collaborated with artists from different countries, contributing to the international character of her career. She remains active as a recording artist and continued releasing new music in 2026.

Otilia began developing her professional music career in the early 2010s. Before using the name Otilia, she performed under the stage name Bijue. In 2013, she adopted Otilia as her professional stage name and continued releasing solo material.

Her early recordings included songs such as “All the Stars,” “French Kiss,” “Russian Dream” and “On Fire.” These releases helped establish her early catalogue before the song that would transform her career internationally.

In 2014, Otilia released “Bilionera.” The song became her major breakthrough and gained significant popularity outside Romania. It received radio exposure in countries including Turkey, Greece, Bulgaria, Pakistan and India, helping introduce Otilia to a much larger international audience.

After the success of “Bilionera,” Otilia continued releasing dance and pop music. Her subsequent catalogue included “Aventura,” “Passion,” “Diamante,” “Prisionera,” “Adelante,” “Deli Gibi” and several other singles and collaborations.

Her career has also included collaborations with international artists. She recorded “Passion” with Costi, Shaggy and Andrea and collaborated with Turkish artists including Serdar Ortaç and Sinan Akçıl.

Otilia has developed a particularly strong international following, with her music reaching audiences across Europe, Turkey, the Middle East and South Asia. She has continued releasing new material rather than limiting her career to the success of “Bilionera.”

Otilia’s music is primarily associated with pop and dance music, with strong influences from house, Latin pop and reggaeton.

Her songs typically combine electronic dance production, rhythmic beats and melodic vocals with an international pop sound. This musical approach has allowed her recordings to reach audiences beyond Romania, particularly in European, Turkish, Middle Eastern and South Asian music markets.

Latin and reggaeton influences are especially noticeable across several of her releases, while other recordings move closer to mainstream European dance-pop and house music.

Otilia has also recorded and performed music across different languages and collaborated with international artists, giving her catalogue a cross-cultural character.

Otilia achieved international recognition following the release of “Bilionera” in 2014. The song became particularly successful outside Romania and reached radio audiences in several countries, including Turkey, Greece, Bulgaria, Pakistan and India.

“Bilionera” became the defining breakthrough of Otilia’s career and generated hundreds of millions of online views over the following years. Its success resulted in international concerts and helped establish her outside the Romanian music market.

Her later songs also attracted substantial international audiences. Tracks including “Diamante,” “Prisionera” and “Adelante” accumulated millions of online views and helped Otilia maintain an international following after her initial breakthrough.

Otilia’s career has included international performances, collaborations with artists from different countries and continued releases across dance, pop, Latin and reggaeton-influenced music.
