My Take

Fetty Wap's arrival felt like a genuine cultural moment to me. When "Trap Queen" climbed to number two on the Hot 100 in 2014, it seemed to come from nowhere and instantly belonged everywhere. What I love is his melodic, half-sung flow that blurred the line between rapping and singing and influenced a whole wave of artists who followed. There is an unpolished, street-level authenticity to him that traces straight back to Paterson, New Jersey. His later years have been turbulent, but that one record stamped his name onto the era, and a single song that defines a moment is more than most ever achieve.

Overview

Willie Junior Maxwell II (born June 7, 1991), better known by his stage name Fetty Wap (), is an American rapper, singer, and songwriter. He quickly rose to mainstream prominence after his 2014 song "Trap Queen" peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and led him to sign with 300 Entertainment, an imprint of Atlantic Records.
