The first time he did that, it was crazy. That’s when he started singing and using the melodies.
Fetty kept making music-he’s real smart-so he found himself quick and knew what he wanted to do. We were just working, staying in the studio, and we always just had a passion for music. We do what we do, we’re in our zone, but he handles all the business and the other aspects. He’s the Tom Brady of Real Good Fellas Productions. I’ve just been rocking with him ever since. Monty was playing a verse I did, and Fetty was telling Monty, “Yo, who’s this? He killed that shit, dawg! That nigga nice as hell!” When I met him, they came and got some weed like, “I wanna be down with ya’ll!” I just was like, “Alright then!” Fetty felt my style, my swag, and my energy. I already knew Monty, so they was coming to get some loud from me.
Nitt Da Gritt: I met Fetty Wap in Paterson. We were still running from studio to studio in the hood. One time, he just wrote a verse and that’s when we started making songs. I used to go to the studios all the time so he’d just be with me. I was rapping, but he really wasn’t making music back then. We both liked to smoke weed and we’d just chill together. We spoke to the 25-year-old new star along with RGF’s Monty, Nitt Da Gritt, Brian “Peoples” Garcia, and the song’s original producer, Tony Fadd, for the stories behind the biggest song of the last year. But the story of where it all began-on the streets of Paterson, N.J., with a few friends, a few studio sessions, and a free beat Fetty’s manager found online-hasn’t yet been told. This week, Fetty has four songs in the Billboard Hot 100-”679” at No. But his squad saw firsthand how a song goes viral in the Tri-State area-first you hear it in the streets, and then enough people search for it online that by the time Hot 97 gets to it, it’s already inching its way up the charts.īut what Fetty has done with the Tony Fadd and Brian “Peoples” Garcia-produced banger has broken records-and he’s gone on to show he’s no one-hit wonder, either.
Take Paterson, N.J.’s Fetty Wap-real name Willie Maxwell -who saw what it’s like to skyrocket to fame after the success of his 2014 summer anthem, “Trap Queen.” Alongside his label, RGF Productions, and crew, Remy Boyz 1738, the song’s SoundCloud numbers hit six figures within weeks of its release-without initial blog love, radio play, or industry support. And while plaques are cool, longevity is more important. An artist releases a song that takes him or her from buzzing to Billboard’s Hot 100 and is presumed to be a success. We’ve seen the rise of the viral rapper already.
