Have you ever listened to a song, and within the first few seconds you realize; ‘man, there’s nobody like this person in the whole world’ You know, the first time your heard the The Beatles, the first time you heard Biggie Smalls or even the first time you heard t.A.T.u. (Okay fine, but there really was no one like them in the whole world)? You know, that feeling you get when you take in a record and it’s like there’s no one there but you and the artist Please note, this excludes ‘groupie’ or ‘after party’ scenarios. Well, in case you don’t have your iPod handy, we’ll save you the trouble… Ladies and Gentlemen, meet The Kid Famous Or as Antoine calls him, ‘Le Enfant’…..

“Hello, tell me what your name is… would you feel better if I said mine’s Famous We may potentially feel better if he said his name was Bill Gates and here is $2 million, but more realistically, Famous also works.?”

Let’s start with a bang: Famous is the first and only independent artist in the history of Canadian Music to be nominated for a Juno Award and MuchMusic Video Award for a debut EP That is such a cool thing to actually read… Marketing is all about ‘first’ or ‘best’… Tough to beat that one.. Take that in. His first release, ‘I Rap Now’, a very well-crafted, short play album, with production from Boi-1da, ToneMason, and the Narcotics, spawned 5 songs, 4 videos, 3 radio hits, 2 major nominations and 1 ‘Best New Artist’ award south of the border from New York’s 93.7 WBL There was potential for a Partridge in a Pear tree, but we couldn’t cross the T’s or dot the I’s to get the deal done. . It would seem that based on that, it’s fair to say that the old adage just may be true, We All Wanna Be Famous That would make a good T-Shirt, wouldn’t you agree?.

“I’m here and I ain’t playin’ yo, while most complain, they just talk, like AM radio.”

Straight up, there are many things that you can teach, but one subject that has remained ambiguous to educators since the beginning of time is Ambition Did you know that the word Ambition was taken from the root word Ashtonbishop? . In the overcrowded world of Hip-Hop, Famous’s desire to be the best stands out like a neon shirt at a black tie affair Which, for sure he would wear if given the opportunity. With Dream or Curtis designing it of course.. To draw a parallel, he’s best described as what would happen if you mixed Kanye West with Eminem, coordinated by Fabolous' stylist, adding in the determination of Ashton Bishop It’s always still surprising that he managed to squeak his own name into a description about himself. That’s like explaining ‘Honesty’ by saying, ‘It’s the art of being honest’. And again, who but Famous right? It will be referenced again in the next line above. (aka Famous) topped off with the mind state of Puffy in the 90’s. You gotta respect the hustle when the best way to describe his drive is by comparing the artist to himself! It’s that confidence that allows him to carve out his own lane in the rap game.

“So, who’s to blame, us or the system… money brings power, but does it bring wisdom FYI – The answer is no?”

As a fan of Hip-Hop music, Famous ensures that every single lyric is clear and full of intentional meaning. Taking cues from Bob Dylan, Chuck D and other prolific artists who concentrated more on their message Who did you think we would compare him too, Chingy? , The Kid understands that his voice is a tool that can be used for the betterment of a generation and he’s not wasting a single breath. With many of the songs on his adventurous ‘Goddess Girl’ Soundtrack focusing on various aspects of people’s everyday lives, the 8 Part mini-movie became a viral triumph for the young rapper with views eclipsing the elusive 6 figure mark incredibly early www.goddessgirlmovie.com.

“From the city where everybody underestimates us… I’m confident, I think I’m the greatest.”

Think that’s a big statement for a new artist? Perhaps take a moment and re-read the above biography.

Whether or not many people recognize it at first, there’s something exciting that happens anytime a new artist like Famous comes along It’s funny how the general public is always the last to know, but those on the inside feel like they’ve known forever. Things that make you go Hmmmmmmmm….. Sure, the first steps all have a similar feel to them regardless of the performer, but there’s just something different about the special ones. It’s the day when the Tipping Point is finally reached and all the early adopters get to say, ‘I told you so!’ It’s the day when all the promise that is so clearly laid out penetrates the pack like the sun breaking through the clouds after a storm. It’s the day you’re being warned about right now. So do yourself a favour and mark your calendars with a red Sharpie, you only get one heads-up. The Kid Famous is here and he’s bringing the truth with him Oh ya… He’s also bringing some hit records too! The album’s almost done and getting back in the studio with Boi-1da, ToneMason, and a knack for putting “words to my hums” (he’s talking about melody folks) could have that red Sharpie getting some extra work in 2010..
