Being successful outside the booth is not something new for Feli Fame (f/k/a Felony Fame). He has appeared alongside Hip Hop heavyweight 50 Cent in his film, Before I Self Destruct and in MTV’s reality show “My Life as Liz”.

It was spending time on the set of Before I Self Destruct that made Feli realize he wanted to make a movie of his own. Fame went on to fulfill that desire in the form of his upcoming film, Dirty Laundry: Greed Has No Face, a movie that was written and produced by the rapper himself and directed by Anthony ScottDeperto. You can pre-order the film on Chill

In regards to why he decided to drop a film, Feli said in a press statement, “I just wanted to make myself different from other artist. I wanted to put more on the table and bring more to my company. So that’s why I decided to do a movie,” said Feli Fame in a This Is 50 interview. “One day I was just writing a song and I said this sounds like a movie. I got it in order, took action, went and got my permits for the places and did it.”  

Now that Feli Fame has become a filmmaker, some might think that the lyricist will put music on the back burner. A lot of work is required to be successful in the filmmaking world but despite the time it takes, the rapper has no plans to give up the mic.
