The above message was sent out earlier in the week to subscribers of The Fam’s voicemail update service, which can be accessed for free at 212-845-9935.  There are currently over 800 callers on the line who are given first dibs on exclusive content such as this new Timid freestyle in support of Family Business.


EJ – Hate On Me

May 16, 2009

EJ’s official response record “Hate On Me” is now playing exclusively on his MySpace page

You couldn’t out-rhyme a Soulja Boy or Hurricane Chris
Since you lived, I’m assuming that the hurricane missed
That bitch injected your ego with a venereal
Now she follows the funeral procession at your burial
Didn’t you see the video?  How you gonna fuck with me?
I let you live the first time — breathing was a luxury

Is it just me, or is this battle over already?

As a side note, when I was mixing this record I made that kissing noise in the background myself.  That could very well be the first ghost kiss in history.


Cee-Rock “The Fury” Feat Timid – “LYSSYNUP!”

April 28, 2009

This is the new video by Cee-Rock “The Fury” featuring Timid of The Fam.  You may remember Cee-Rock from the Family Reunion concert in Queens (who could forget his infamous banana fangaz?).  The track was produced by TWELVEBIT, a fellow Rawkus 50 artist.  Download it from iTunes today.


A veteran’s response to “Devil On the Doorstep”

April 24, 2009


This message was left on The Fam’s voicemail (which can be reached at 212-845-9935) by a United States veteran in response to the song “Devil On the Doorstep” off the Family Business album, dropping June 2.  The socio-politically charged song can currently be heard exclusively on Pizon’s MySpace page.

The Fam would like to thank Danny, who in his call stated, “So many rappers out there nowadays just want to run their mouths about what they got…They think they’re cool, but you actually have a message.”  It’s this type of reaction that reminds artists why they do what they do.

Timid – My 2 Sense

January 21, 2009

I shot some of this video at my apartment in Virginia.  The parts where he’s sitting on the steps were in my building.  When I saw how it came out, I told Timid that I liked how grimey the visuals looked, and he said:  “Stop trying to hood up your townhouse.”  C’mon.  Those bricks aren’t CGI.

This couldn’t have been released on a more perfect day (it’s now 1 AM on the east coast, but it officially dropped yesterday).  Coverage from the inauguration is on the way.
