Fetty Wap - Fetty Wap - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

I've been listening to hip hop for a long, long time. I can appreciate artists from every end of the spectrum, be they lyrical, political, ignorant, hardcore, or an R&B/rap fusion like Fetty Wap. Is Fetty Wap golden age hip hop like what we got back in the mid '90s with gems like Illmatic, The Infamous, Enter the Wu-Tang, Doe or Die, or Reasonable Doubt? Absolutely not. Is Fetty Wap even that great of rapper? Again, absolutely not. Fetty makes catch pop-rap records fueled by an uncanny ear for beats and a fantastic handle on crafting absurdly catchy hooks. It's fun music, plain and simple. Fetty Wap isn't setting the world on fire in any particular ways, especially in terms of subject matter. You've heard it all before, and more than likely by rappers with twice as much skill as Fetty. But this record's laid back vibe, its immaculate production, and Fetty's crooning/rapping fit remarkably well together. It's just pure entertainment, something to ride to, and it works amazingly at that.

This CD was much better than expected (and I'm a very tough critic in regards to newer hip-hop music). Fetty definitely has his own style (very high originality points) and makes very good use of his singing skills. You'll know once you hear a Fetty song as it is immediately ecognizable and gets the party hyped up!

Very picky about my music but I'm really well rounded when it comes to variety. Heard a couple of his tracks and I knew I had to get his CD. I can't wait to see where he goes next in his music and so far his collaborations have been awesome. This is an up and coming artist that has really taken the radio play by storm.

If you love being a part of the Squaaad Remy Boyz reppin 1738, you are going to love this CD! It is like listening to Trap Queen over and over again. Fetty is a great new artist and we will see if he will be a one hit wonder. PS: DO NOT BUY THE CLEAN VERSION!!! BIG MISTAKE

I bought this album only for Trap Queen but there are about 3 or 4 other songs that are pretty good. I'm not too into rap but this guy's got a cool, unique sound that I hope will be around for a long while.
