Splitting time between her native home of Paris France and Senegal Africa, Fama was brought up in a multicultural environment influenced by African beats, European sounds and listening to famous icon like Michael Jackson, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Stevie Wonder to name a few. Fama was always attracted by the artistic world, she starting acting, dancing, and soon enough realized a passion for singing. She then joined a girl’s band named “Elegance” but after a year the group fell apart. In comes famed French DJ Franck Dona, who saw a great potential in Fama as an singer and together with his partner they worked on an music project labels were not interested at that time by the kind of sound they were bringing up for her. Fama went forward and joined a gospel choir "BMS" (Black Music School), this is where she began to polish her craft, she finally found a way to express herself and discovered her love for piano, therefore she started to involve herself more and more into the creative process and started to produce her own music. After performing with the choir, collaborating with other artists, she decided to take it to another level and went to New York City. New York was the beginning of a big journey; Fama first attended the Harlem School of Arts, while going to the Broadway Dance Center. In 2008, she finally released a single called "Walking Away" dedicated to the awareness of domestic violence. In 2009, she met with A & R Ken Goldfeder and was selected to be part of a compilation record to be released at that time by Interscope for a nationwide brand, but unfortunately never went through. It is in 2010, that everything changed, she met again in New York with Franck Dona, and from there on they started working together again, having both matured and polished they craft, Franck, who was preparing his album, became her executive producer for the Ep she was working on. This Ep called “Power of 11” was produced by Franck Dona and Kaleb Rollins. Fama co-produced and co wrote on all tracks. The first Single "the One" is an upbeat pop/dance track that will most definitely be a hit on the dance floor. “Power of 11” is a true reflection of Fama's different influences. You will find a touch of African beat, a little bit of Dance/Pop, blending with Hip Hop and R&B. Fama is like no other artist today; she has a unique sound that will take you into her world.
