Nick Cannon - Famous
Featuring: Akon
Producer: Jump Smokers
Album: Mr. Showbiz
Label: Can-I-Ball Records
I don’t know what could have driven Nick Cannon to question his celebrity status (Concussion? Existential crisis?), but I don’t think the man has anything to worry about. To paraphrase an oft-quoted dictum on the recognition of waterfowl: if you jump like you’re famous, drink like you’re famous, dance like you’re famous and marry Mariah Carey like you’re famous, then you’re probably Famous. Jokes aside, an insanely obvious premise never stopped a single from setting the dancefloor on fire, and the latest selection off the rapper/actor’s sophomore set should be no exception to the rule. Here, production crew Jump Smokers serve up an electro/house-informed instrumental guaranteed to get bodies moving as Nick parties in a manner befitting his V.I.P. status. Konvict Muzik boss Akon handles wingman duties, inviting a female clubgoer to share in his high-rolling lifestyle on the chorus. The energy is definitely there, but will Famous’ club appeal translate into anticipation for Cannon’s sophomore studio album, Mr. Showbiz? Speculate away – and, as always, keep it locked for release details.

Wow. Nick Cannon! Let's just say it's definitely been awhile since i've heard any music from him, and i'm pretty sure the last song that i did hear wasn't anything close to techno. Nevertheless, this track isn't bad. Obviously gonna have success in the clubs, but other than that i can't really see this being played a whole lot on the radio. And i'm not too sure, but Nick may be a little better at hosting America's Got Talent than making music now-a-days.

Thanks to the Jump Smokers production, which sounds a lot like some material that Clinton Sparks and DJ Snake cooked up last year, this record could be played in the club. Thats a plus, right? Hey, its better than not being able to get played anywhere...

I want to hear some new material from Akon, just not with Nick Cannon lol. But honestly...jokes aside, everyone else is right. this is a club song, and it wasn't that bad. I've heard worse.

If I'm not mistaken, I think this almost made it onto LASERS. A @*#$! awesome verse on top of this wack ass attempt at a chart hit is what constitutes half of Lupe's latest.
But seriously, if a rapper doesn't have enough respect for his skills to make his 8 bars understandable, I have no respect for him... And I was thinking Kanye's transformer-robot ish on MBDTF was bad. Akon did his thing, production was good for what it was. Ultimately it's just not for me. |

Is this a Akon track or Nick Cannon? This had me anticipating more Akon music. If this was an Akon track I would give it 3 stars but its 1.5 stars for Nick because he is barely on this.

Really, Nick Cannon? So you go with the techno/ Pop sound and did not even make the song exciting. Then his rhymes are trash. Nick do us and yourself a favor. Leave rap along. Cause these rhymes are trash. Stay on America's Got Talent because your this song is untalented. Eminem is somewhere laughing right now.
