This album comes after a 3 part EP series titled Road To Center Stage, hosted by Hot 97′s DJ Kay Slay and Atlanta’s own DJ Drama. The EP series features production from Grammy Award winning Boi1da and ToneMason, as well as unreleased reference records for Taylor Swift, B.O.B & Akon. With 13 official videos, (all independent), associated with this project that generated over 1.3 million YouTube views, the buzz is finally gaining the recognition and his name is finally starting to make sense.
Also, over the next few months Famous will be on tour, visiting many of the beautiful countries that he has performed in over the last few years. With dates in Rotterdam, London, India (tentative), Hong Kong, Taiwan & Shanghai, we can only imagine the influences that will seep into the creation of Center Stage.

Jasiri X – Ascension [Album]
Pittsburgh, PA – Through the use of thought-provoking lyrics, Jasiri X has not only made national headlines in the past couple of years, but his movement to redeem the misogynistic and crime promoting image of hip-hop has garnered him quite a large fanbase. The MC attempts to further his influence on the mainstream crowd with his debut album, Ascension. Don’t get it twisted though- X’s cleverly constructed lyrics make it clear that selling out is not an option. Produced entirely by Vancouer’s Rel!g!on, download the album HERE and check out “Pillars” featuring Brother Ali and directed by Hayden Baptiste after the jump.
