How can I become a famous singer and how can I get my name out there in nyc

Good for you! Hopefully you are pursuing professional sining lesson instructions plus learning how to play an instrument that will balance out your sining. From what I have seen, if you really want to get noticed you should starting with getting small local gigs and build a reputation locally. Get a feel for putting on a show in public, you need to get rid of any fear of performing in front of strangers. You should also try to get into as many sining competitions as you possible, especially the ones that air on TV. Put yourself out there and good luck and practice all the time!
