Famous is an unreleased song lyric written in 1987, which may or may not have been recorded in the studio. The lyrics exist on a notepad along with lyrics from Latino Barbie Doll and Rhythm Angel. The notepad indicates the track was intended for Sheila E., although she may not have recorded a version of the track. The lyrics reject the traditional stereotypes of fame, stating "if all the glory in this world came without the love of somebody / then keep it y'all I say, being famous just ain’t my kind of party". The track remains unreleased.
