When it comes to the mainstream, Sage Francis is virtually an unknown name, however beneath the iceberg, the gifted emcee is hailed as one of the best. Now the C.E.O of Strange Famous Records is making huge steps to ensure the future for himself and his label mates.

It has been reported that Sage has personally updated his own website (www.sagefrancis.net), with audio and video features. An online shopping cart is also in the works, which will sell a range of items from clothes, accessories, and mixtapes.

Strange Famous Records is a quickly growing label, with artists from across the States being signed. The first release from Strange Famous Records will be "Reanimator", who was responsible for putting a large amount of work into Sage's solo album "A Healthy Distrust".

Sage himself is doing well, with a european tour starting in May this year, the rapper is rumoured to be touring over 10 countries. Sage will also appear on the new Kool Keith LP which is anticipated to be released in the spring. Make sure Sage Francis is a name you remember!
