WORLD FAMOUS LOSERs→
The World Famous Losers brand was established by IMG and FrontStreet Records to show the world that despite what is said about you and despite your obstacles, you can overcome and achieve anything. The oxymoron which is “World Famous Losers” embraces success without limits. Throughout history beauty rose from ashes and we vow to continue this legacy.
World Famous Loser’s chase their dreams with all diligence and leave a rather impressive legacy behind…

“If you can make a dollar in a bear market, you can make a billion in a bull market!”
Detroit, Michigan was once known as the motor capital and as the city that gave birth to Motown Records. Now with the recession on its way, GM has lost $15.5 billion in the second quarter and Michigan holds the highest unemployment rate in the United States (8.5%). So how does a company stabilize with a declining economy? By having quality products and reducing their overhead. FrontStreet Records consistently records, manufactures and distributes a monthly compilation series in order to provide fans with quality music and to gain market share.
The next step in the process of branding FrontStreet Records is the new compilation LP Nobody Fronted Us s2. Nobody Fronted Us Series 2 picks right up where series 1 left off! With (TSP) The Skout Productions team leader Thirty overseeing the production on the entire album, you will not be able to sit still when you play this record.
The standard gets set right away with the first song entitled “Franklins” by Oseeola. Another energetic Oseeola single “She Can Get it” is next and is followed by the Jab smash “Bang ‘em in the Head” feat. Oseeola and Braulio. Speaking of Braulio, (TBS) The Boi Skout productions member provides choruses on the majority of the songs on the compilation. Lending his creative writing abilities and infectious voice to songs such as “Drama Strippin” and “Hideaway” this compilation contains a perfect balance of Street Anthems and ready for radio singles. And, once again Oseeola and Gayle come together to compose another feel good song for the ladies on “Bad Guy.”
So how does this Michigan label plan to effectively market and distribute there music? By having quality product and keeping the cost of creating that quality product to a minimum. That is why FrontStreet Records does everything in house. So how does this Michigan label plan to effectively market and distribute there music? By having quality product and keeping the cost of creating that quality product to a minimum. That is why FrontStreet Records does everything in house. From the production to the mixing, mastering, recording and pressing, FrontStreet Records is capable of doing it all.
And by allowing only the cream of the crop artists and producers to work for the label, quality is not sacrificed, only amplified! With Michigan and the music business in need of new leaders, FrontStreet Records is stepping up to the plate and positioning themselves as one of the key components in the modern business world. This 11 song compilation LP is another step towards branding FrontStreet Records and providing consumers with what they not only need, but deserve!
Is anybody buying Records Anymore? Since ’07 record sales have decreased 16.5% according to Neilsen soundscan and are showing no signs of improving. Since the emergence of digital distributors (Itunes, Amazon, etc…) most artists find it difficult to go gold, let alone platinum. It is almost impossible to break a new artist in this day and age, which is why it is imperative to use more aggressive marketing strategies when branding a Record Company in the 21st Century.
That brings us to the new FrontStreet/IMG release entitled “Nobody Fronted Us.” This 10 song composition is a Compilation, not a mixtape!
There are no industry beats and no samples. Just all-original material from independent powerhouse FrontStreet Records! This first installment of the three part series features Production by FSR’s in house Production Team leader Thirty (who has produced tracks for Stat Quo, Rick Ross, MC Breed, Dayton Family, etc…) and has vocals from Oseeola, Jab, Braulio and Gayle. One things for sure; “Nobody Fronted Us” is not to be taken lightly!
The most featured artist on the compilation is Detroit’s own Oseeola. You can hear Oseeola deliver superb lyrics with a very distinct and unique style not often heard in Hip Hop these days. Tracks like “Ditto,” “Like a Rocket” and “20/20 Vision” will grab any underground fans attention, while songs like “Cupcake” and “Bad Chick” are perfect for radio and clubs. The art of story telling is also resurrected on the Jab single “Gun Control” in which Jab takes you on a journey through the chain of events that lead up to a robbery gone entirely wrong (check out the surprise ending).
But what would good beats and rhymes be without hooks? That is where Braulio comes in. The Angola born phenomenon operates as a spark plug throughout the whole compilation and really brings life to songs like “20/20,”“They Gotta Love It,” and “Bad Chick” with catchy choruses and a sound that is truly infectious. Full of life and energy, Braulio is equally as comfortable singing a hook as he is performing a verse (often in Portuguese).
Comparisons aside, “Nobody Fronted Us -s1” really lives up to the title. Nobody gave FrontStreet Records anything; they had to get it themselves. They produced, recorded, mixed and mastered the entire project from start to finish and now you have the opportunity to be a part of this experience. The CD is available on www.FrontStreetRecords.com estore.
With FrontStreet/IMG’s non traditional marketing strategies and ability to not only change with the times but change the times they are on pace to becoming a Fortune 500 company in no time. And with their undeniable & unmistakable sound this first compilation will leave you impatiently waiting for the next one. Just remember, it’s a Compilation, not a Mixtape!
Decepticon forces return to Earth on a mission to take Sam Witwicky prisoner, after the young hero learns the truth about the ancient origins of the Transformers. Joining the mission to protect humankind is Optimus Prime, who forms an alliance with international armies for a second epic battle.
Buzz:
Nearly two years to the day after the original Transformers was released, it's interesting to note how the personalities involved here have changed. Shia LaBeouf has gone from an up-and-comer to full-fledged star, with attendant backlash and ego bursts; Megan Fox one upped her co-star by becoming a more credible Hollywood bad boy; Michael Bay is still as huffy as producer Don Murphy is angry, though they both do an admirable job of bringing movies news, insights, misdirections, and angry rants to the TF universe. What do we really know about the project? Highlights: A boosted budget (a reported $200 million, which excludes marketing and all that) allowed the creation of some 40 Autobots and Decepticons, who will receive more screen time; LaBeouf will likely channel Mutt Williams a bit, given the ancient-world tie-ins here (hint: Egyptology reveals the origins of TF life?!); rabid worldwide fanbase + four-barrel marketing attack + IMAX footage = biggest film of the year? KIT with TF2 via cheat sheets and spoiler logs. P.S. When is the last time a coloring book spoiled a plot?
A publishing executive (Bullock) forces her assistant (Reynolds) to marry her so she can avoid deportation back to Canada.
Buzz:
Step Up director Anne Fletcher is making strides in her career, and she's looking to spotlight "Sandy's" physical-comedy skills here, which will most likely pale in comparison to Ryan Reynolds's innate ability to make annoying behavior somehow charming. Thing is: Both Reynolds and Bullock's respective partners are exponentially hotterthan this on-screen pairing, but we sense that 2009 is turning into the Year of the Cougar.
In Las Vegas, three groomsmen lose their about-to-be-wed buddy during their drunken misadventures, forcing them to retrace their steps in order to find him before the church bells ring.
Buzz:
Hmm, did Ashton and Cameron's success in Vegas influence director Todd Phillips to finally pick his first project since the woefully misguided School for Scoundrels remake? Whatever the case, Phillips and Warner Bros. are keeping it low budget here, with a B-list cast (at best) that should keep this comedy in the black.
By tying thousands of balloon to his home, 78-year-old Carl Fredricksen sets out to fulfill his lifelong dream to see the wilds of South America. Right after lifting off, however, he learns he isn't alone on his journey, sinceRussell, a wilderness explorer 70 years his junior, has inadvertently become a stowaway on the trip.
Buzz:
Pixar takes to the skies again, this time with buddy-story specialists Pete Docter and Bob Peterson bringing the charm to us in 3D (in "select" theaters, anyway). These days, I support anything that strips away my senses of irony and sarcasm, and Up's teaser trailer (located above) is wonderfully restorative. At Comic-Con last year, Docter described how the movie was influenced by an unreachable range of Venezuelan mountains, and a septuagenarian 's wish to fulfill the dreams he made with his now-departed wife when he was a younger man. I got misty. Plus, Docter went on to say that his movie will have some easter eggs for upcoming Pixar projects. More news as Pixar/Disney leaks it.
Anna Fitzgerald (Breslin) looks to earn medical emancipation from her parents (Diaz and Patric) who until now have relied on their youngest child to help their leukemia-stricken daughter Kate (Vassilieva) remain alive.
Buzz:
Nick Cassavetes wants to bum you out. Again. Following up Alpha Dog with this adaptation of Jodi Picoult's novel, a story that is almost as depressing as Alice Sebold's The Lovely Bones, is destined to make your heart (and Abigail Breslin's kidneys) break. I'm like: Why is this being released in the middle of sunny summer, when it feels predestined to fit into the fall/winter film schedule?
When a couple of lazy hunter-gatherers (Black and Cera) are banished from their primitive village, they set off on an epic journey through their ancient world.
Buzz:
The Superbad set will be stoked for a 2/3 cast reunion here, while those of us who actually came of age in the late 1970s/early 1980s will note the reemergence of Year One writer-director Harold Ramis, who has a Meatballs remake and Ghostbusters 3 in development. We imagine at least one of these projects will be filming by this summer, and since news of a third Ghostbusters adventure immediately earned more press than this time-traveling comedy, here's a link to a dirt-spreading article on the project, which has direct ties to the production of The Year One.
Armed men hijack a New York City subway train, holding the passengers hostage in return for a ransom, and turning an ordinary day's work for dispatcher Walter Garbe (Washington) into a face-off with the mastermind behind the crime (Travolta).
Buzz:
It's Deja-Vu all over again as Scott and Denzel reunite for this remake of a remake. I can't help but wonder if the hijackers in this version will still ask for one meeee-lee-ion dollars or if today's New Yorkers would seriously sit in a subway car with these goons for an hour (even if one of 'em looked like an aging Tony Manero). Somehow, I don't think so.
The origin story of Captain James T. Kirk, Spock and the crew of the USS Enterprise before they had boldly gone where no man had gone before.
Buzz:
One look (okay maybe two) at the trailer and it's safe to say this isn't your grandfather's Star Trek. With a Spock vs. Kirk fist fight, steamy sex scenes, Shaun of the Dead cracking jokes and is that Harold from Harold and Kumar (!?), this doesn't even come close to being your older brother's TNG. Early reports call it "phenomenal". So, perhaps handing this tired franchise over to the young Mr. Abrams may have been just what it needed to live long and ...
Security guard Larry Daley (Stiller) infiltrates the Smithsonian Institute in order to rescue Jedediah (Wilson) and Octavius (Coogan), who have been shipped to the museum by mistake.
Buzz:
Similar ideas abound for this sequel, but even naysayers might admit that a better cast has been assembled around Ben Stiller for his second Washington, D.C. adventure. (It's pretty amazing that Stiller has three active franchises going, if you believe reports thatLittle Fockers is getting made). Here's a first look at the film, and a glimpse at how much Stiller has aged over the past couple years. P.S. Is it just me, or does Amy Adams seem kind of annoying as Amelia Earhart? Granted, she's probably way less irritating than Robin Williams as Teddy Roosevelt, who returns for the sequel (along with two handfuls of new faces), but pinched and snippy just aren't her colors.
A couple (Rudolph and Krasinski) who is expecting their first child travel around the U.S. in order to find a perfect place to start their family.
Buzz:
Four words I never thought I'd use in the same sentence: Sam Mendes summer comedy. With a screenplay by the marvelous husband-and-wife duo Dave Eggers and Vendela Vida, I feel like Mendes will make the shift away from heavyweight dramas with his love for important themes intact. May his process make Maya Rudolph and John Krasinski actual-real movie stars, too. Why am I already seeing Eggers and Vida on awards podiums, spreading the 826 Valencia gospel?
with “Catch Me Illin’” you here a young man understanding the importance of his plight and acknowledging it as a rite of passage mean while brushing his shoulders off of hate. Dux Jones’s hunger is awakened as small minded individuals began to throw stones and as a giant, he’s not tripping because he’s throwing homes.
