about

"There is a classic soul vibe on “We Came To Play” with some glittering guitar filling the space with a beat that makes your head bop." - IBG

" Up-tempo and laced with R&B and funk – “We Came To Play” is a real statement from Fame…he’s hungrier and more determined than most artists you’ll be lucky enough to meet." - Sleeping Bag Studios

"We Came to Play’ its jazzy rock infused beat stirs the depth of the innermost soul. Definitely easy listening with poignant instrumental selection that easily wraps around your heart, soul, and mindset." - Glitter&Stilettos

"However the best song on the album, for me, is without a doubt the funky, Daft Punk-Pharrell influenced, “We Came To Play”." - Jamsphere

"By far the highlight of the collection is the glistening work of “We Came To Play”. With a sound reminiscent of Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky” Kenny Fame includes a lyrical narrative into the song. The song itself has a slower tempo than that Daft Punk piece and greater introspection. An absolute blast of a song it shows off their impressive chops" - Beach Sloth

"‘We Came To Play’ is the one moment when we find ourselves back in a more disco frame of mind, with the track running in the same format as something like ‘Get Lucky’, with its rolling bass and snappy guitar. Soulful, with a hint of funk, this is Kenny Fame’s next step towards greatness." - Crossradar

lyrics

WE CAME TO PLAY (Lyrics)
L.W. Catoe (K. Fame)

I’ve always dreamed about those flashing lights.
Imagining I’d take the stage one night.
Fans would ask me for my autograph,
makes me laugh...
imagine that?

Oh we, we came to play…
came to play…. hey hey.
We, we came to play…
came to play… hey, hey.

Never thought I’d be all by myself.
The road to stardom can seem more like hell.
People say hello but never say goodbye;
Emails and texts don’t get returned;
but why…?
NYC is filled with many stars
That don’t shine farther than,
local dive bars.

We, we came to play…
came to play…. hey hey.
We, we came to play…
came to play… hey, hey. (break).

We, we came to play…
came to play…. hey hey.
We, we came to play…
came to play… hey, hey.

We, we came to play…
came to play…. hey hey.
We, we came to play…
came to play… hey, hey.
