Tony Famous (Kendall DeLashment) is a Southside, Chicago native who allows his creativity and storytelling ability showcase his skills as a wordsmith. His love for writing and producing hip-hop music is a direct reflection of his past experience as a poet.

His lyricism narrates the multi-faceted life of living in Chicago; his sharp lyrical observation focuses on the violence grappling his hometown, confidence in his musical passion, and life experiences as a college graduate.

Tony released his debut project titled Checks & Balance in February 2017. The project featured hard hitting lyrics and exciting appearances from Chicago’s D. Lylez and T. L. Williams. Following the success of C&B, he released his self-proclaimed masterpiece, If We Were Heroes (2019). The Super Project combined his love for hip hop music and comics. “This is the only project I have ever wanted to release. Everything is a bonus.” -Tony

Never settling for recognition as just a great hip-hop artist, the Harley Quinn rapper received his Master’s degree in Interdisciplinary Arts from Columbia College.
