ROYAL FIRM 5TH AVE FAME
Growing up in Rochdale, Queens FAME discovered at an early age how important hip hop was to him. The person most responsible for putting him onto hip hop is his father. As a young boy FAME's pops (as he refers to him) would give him all types of music from all genres. He was mostly impressed with the young artist NAS and his album "illmatic." As he keep finding hip hop he stumbled across arguably the greatest rapper of all time Jay-Z. "Jay-Z paints a picture every time I would listen to Jay's albums I would fall in love all over again." And in that moment FAME decided he wanted to be apart of hip-hop and not just a listener but as an actual artist telling stories and painting pictures of his own. With the help of Jay Nino, FAME met his manager O. Carter and they formed Royal Firm Entertainment while working on his 2nd mixtape entitled Almost Famous hosted by DJ Love Dinero. This mixtape was an instant hip hop classic because FAME was working with various types of producers and sounds such as Track-killaz & Reemo from Track-Traffikers. FAME worked with Lexx 9 Eleven (Southside Queens) on a track titled "play 2 win." FAME also expanded his sound by his very first female collaboration on a track titled "inlove with the FAME" with M.Dot. He also worked with his own camp Dream Team's Young Villanz which consists of FAME, Tuck & Hype.
With a new team in place and excellent reviews from Almost Famous, FAME and his management decided to work on the next mixtape entitled "Welcome to Swagville." This time around FAME brings you directly to Swagville as the self proclaimed mayor of Rochdale. He is also one of the several hosts which include: DJ Love Dinero, Royal Firm Ent. & Dream Teem. The production consists of G-Man, Track-formers & D. Capone from Germany. FAME & his team consider Welcome to Swagville to become the break-out mixtape of his career which will lead him directly from independent status onto major status. With Welcome to Swagville the movement is being formed to bring you to FAME's first and most anticipated album of 2009.Your musical influences
