About YFame

YFame is the quintessential independent artist. In so many ways, the versatile rising star represents exactly what it means to be “on the grind”.  Also known as “Famey” or “Famey Miscellaney”, the emcee, songwriter, music producer, and graphic designer puts everything into his music. As one’s head nods to his original beats and catchy hooks, YFame’s honest lyrics resonate with anyone who has ever felt like a Somebody-Ish Nobody.

The “product of lonely nights in a dull basement“, this “Self-Made” artist has a style completely of his own. Though he was born in Philadelphia, YFame, who now resides in New Jersey, does not sound like an average urban rapper. He makes it clear that he is no ‘”gangster” and he refrains from rhyming about the clichéd, materialistic, hypersexual, and violent topics  often found in mainstream rap. Furthermore, Famey’s musical endeavors are not limited to only Hip Hop. YFame has added R&B, Soul, and Pop to his repertoire over the years. Yet, YFame is not only different. The dude is nice…

Since the tender age of ten, music has played a large role in his life. Now his life is his music. The death of his father in 2009 left him with the OBLIGATION of “Making it”. Being as though it’s all his father ever wanted. Though he dreams of the fame and the fortune that come with a successful career in the music industry, right now he writes about things that are real to him on a daily basis. Themes of his music include his aspirations to “Be a Star”, the frustrations of the life of a metaphorical starving artist, and even the “Type of Girl”‘s that approach him. According to Famey, “If i lived it, i put it into music. Point blank.
