We had the good fortune of connecting with Famous Richie and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Famous, what do you attribute your success to?
To stay authentic. I love who i am, and who i’m becoming. Stay the course and always remember why you started in the first place!

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
What sets me apart is i’ve never been one to follow trends. I like starting my own wave! It’s never easy being different, but the results are worth it. I’ve took losses and turned every”L” into a lesson. I want the world to know that i’m somebody who puts their soul into every line/bar i say. Nowhere close to the main goal, but brick by brick we’re chipping away.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I would like to Shoutout my family. Literally the backbone to everything i do. Since i started doing talent shows at 7 years old they’ve always showed up and showed out! I would be a fool not to give my flowers to the people who gave me this opportunity.
