Tell The World My Name is the debut studio album by American rapper K-Solo. It was released on May 22, 1990, via Atlantic Records.[1] The recording sessions took place at Power Play Studios and Northshore Soundworks in New York City. The album was produced by PMD, who also served as executive producer. It peaked at No. 45 on the Top R&B Albums in the United States.
The album was supported by three singles: "Spellbound", "Your Mom's in My Business" and "Fugitive". The song "Spellbound" was later sampled by R&B group Brownstone for their Grammy-nominated 1994 hit song "If You Love Me".
The Orlando Sentinel concluded, "Confident without swaggering, hard without macho posturing, K- Solo's Tell the World My Name deserves notice amid a sea of rap-star wannabes."
