Most of what you love in pop culture didn’t happen the way you think it did. Unfamous goes deep with the people who were actually there. Hosted by Grammy-nominated hit songwriter Justin Tranter, whose credits include Chappell Roan’s “Good Luck, Babe!” and some of the biggest pop songs of the past decade, Unfamous takes you inside the rooms where culture gets made. Artists, writers, producers, executives and collaborators reveal the decisions, disagreements, false starts, rewrites, rejections and breakthroughs behind the songs, performances, careers and cultural moments you know. Because the finished product is only part of the story. New episodes every Wednesday.
