Hace un año y tres meses, Famous se convirtió en el ganador de Operación Triunfo 2018. Su voz y talento a la hora de subirse al escenario cautivaron al público, convirtiéndolo en uno de los favoritos y llevándose los 100.000 euros del premio.
Esos sí, sus seguidores y seguidoras tuvieron que esperar hasta agosto para escuchar la primera canción del ex triunfito. Se trataba de Bulla, un tema cien por cien urbano donde el vozarrón de Famous no salía a relucir. Tras meses de silencio en redes sociales, Famous compartió una imagen en su cuenta de Instagram donde aparecía firmando el contrato con una nueva discográfica: el sello nigeriano Aloma Music WorldWide.
De este modo, el joven cerraba su etapa con Universal Music, al que estuvo ligado desde el final del programa de TVE, y comenzaba una nueva era también musical.
¿Y por qué decimos musical? Porque, tal y como ha anunciado en su cuenta de Instagram, Famous lanza nuevo tema este 6 de marzo. Se trata de Hoy ya no.
“Por fin puedo mostraros la portada de "Hoy Ya No" que se estrenará el próximo viernes día 6!!! Foto y diseño por Raul Photo”, ha escrito Famous junto a la portada del single en su cuenta de Instagram.
