Famous - The Declaration
Artist: Famous
Producer: Burd & Keyz
Album: Goddess Girl Soundtrack
Label: Wannabe Famous? Records
Though the emcee born Ashton Bishop is new to the Booth, one could say that he’s already Famous. Well, all right, the Toronto-based “shoe salesman-turned-rapper” may not be a household name just yet, but with his ambition and diverse skill set, it’s only a matter of time – in addition to playing the lead role in forthcoming short film Goddess Girl, he’s created eight new cuts for the movie’s soundtrack, including newly-released lead single The Declaration. Backed by the soulful, brass-driven boardwork of Burd & Keyz (who produce the entire soundtrack album), Famous spits a triumphant chronicle of his artistic grind, informing all listening that 2010’s going to be his year to shine. With an engaging delivery and energy to spare, Famous seems destined to do big things in the Booth and beyond (as long as he doesn’t lean too heavily on the “I’m Famous!” line). Both Goddess Girl and the soundtrack are set to hit the net Oct. 6; if the artist’s acting measures up to his mic presence, he may well have a blockbuster on his hands!

Everything comes together quite nicely on this record. I am not sure what kind of acting skills Famous has behind a camera, but with this type of classy production muscle he will be just fine behind the mic.

This definitely sounds like a 'Declaration' type of record, a really solid cut right here. Lyrics fit the production perfectly. Good ish.

I've been up on Famous for a little while. I like to follow Toronto Hip Hop every since I stumbled across Drake in 2007. The first joint I heard from Famous was him on an "AMERICAN BOY" remix by Toronto R&B singer "Andreena Mill" (Drake's CLOSER, THE LAST HOPE) called "Canadian Boy".
This is pretty dope! Congrats to the homey for landing that Short Film and Soundtrack Deal. I know somebody recently has used this sample, but I can't put my finger on it (PAUSE). Can someone jog my memory? |

The sample is illy!! The production had that epic intro track type feel to it. Famous complements the beat well too. Banger for me.

The track has a nice anthemic soundscape carried by brassy bounce and Famous follow suit and hold this well produced track down with solid lyrics. Nice introduction.

This is decent. Although he is "new" to the biz, he should know every good song has a catchy chorus. His chorus just honestly isn't doing it for me. Not super crazy about the production. 3 stars overall.
