Fetty Wap Takes Noisey Back To Patterson, New Jersey
“Everyone around me is going to be millionaires,” says Fetty Wap enthusiastically backstage a recent show in New York City. The man from Patterson, New Jersey has been climbing up the rap totem pole ever since the masses caught on to his addictive Soundcloud-to-Billboard single, “Trap Queen.”
Taking a closer look at the man behind the music, Noisey trailed Zoovier around during the last few months as he conquered stages with the likes of Taylor Swift — but more importantly he brought the Remy Boyz along with him. And, that’s the most important thing to the kid.
Noisey today is proud to present a new episode from its series Noisey Raps, featuring today’s most talked about rapper Fetty Wap. In the brand-new episode, he takes Noisey home to Patterson, NJ to meet the rest of Zoo Gang, Fetty’s close-knit and deeply loyal crew. Fetty’s friends and collaborators talk about the New Jersey native’s unlikely path to superstardom and the role his crew played in his success.
Sitting comfortably atop the charts with a newly-minted number one album, Fetty Wap is owning 2015. Built off the success of “Trap Queen” — a single as catchy as it is unavoidable — Fetty dominated the airwaves this summer. Right as he was rising to fame, Noisey linked up with Fetty and his crew for a brand-new episode of Noisey Raps.
The episode also catches Fetty as he performs a sold-out show to a ravenous New York crowd. Backstage he explains how to make Zoo Juice — “Remy and Patron. Half and half like Iced-Tea and lemonade. It’s not healthy.” — the unofficial drink of his crew.
