Famoe has worked alongside Serius Jones, TQ, Big Brovaz, Donnie Klang, Spider Loc/Hot Rod (G-Unit), Scola (Dru Hill), Darnell (Shai), and that’s just naming a few.

On Spotify charts, Famoe ranks on several compilation charts in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, as previously noted, for over seventy weeks.
Famoe’s latest single “What I’ve Been Through” was chosen as the official soundtrack for War From The Archives, an independent film out of Ghana. Not allowing himself anytime to regroup or take a step back to lavish on his accomplishments, Famoe is gearing up for his new single “Blessed” set to release on June 3rd.
With success surpassing lightspeed, It’s no shock that Famoe has multiple nominations at this year’s 11th Annual Richmond International Film Festival (RIFF) June 7th-12th, which is one of the largest festivals in the Mid-Atlantic.
