Mississauga rapper Fame Holiday has been establishing himself in the Canadian music scene since his first talent show at 14. He had his breakout year in 2018 with the release of his popular single “Saucy” and acclaimed Made For This EP.
In 2020 Fame had his first viral moment with the release of “My Thang.” The hit single and video garnered over 500,000 streams on Spotify alone and was featured on Editor playlists such as Hip Hop Central, Northern Bars, Hip Hop Favourites and New Music Friday Canada to name a few.
In February 2021, he released the music video for “Take Me Away” in wake of mounting tensions between police and people of colour everywhere. Coveted press outlets including Complex Canada, CBC and Toronto Caribbean News prominently featured the charged visual on their platforms. Buzzing radio stations such as G98.7 FM, CBC Music’s The Block and Toronto’s largest hip hop station FLOW 93.5 FM also added the anthem to their regular rotation. Later that year, “Take Me Away” won the award for Mississauga Music Video of the Year, solidifying Fame’s place as one of the city’s top musical artists.
His consistency and work ethic over the years has earned him a loyal fan-following that has streamed his music over 1 million times. With no intention of slowing down, Fame Holiday recently released his latest album ShowTime, featuring guest performances from Polaris-Prize winner Haviah Mighty, Broco and Monte Biggz. ShowTime is now available for streaming and purchase on all digital streaming platforms.
