2015 was the year of Fetty Wap. The release of his single “Trap Queen” made him an instant superstar. Nearly a year after it was released, it hit the #2 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It stayed on the charts for 52 weeks and made its mark.

After this release, Fetty Wap was one of the biggest rappers in the game. To capitalize on his success he put out a series of popular singles including “679” featuring Remy Boyz and “My Way” featuring Monty. He also a hilarious feature for Lil Dicky’s “$ave Dat Money” in 2016.

But after that, it seems like he fell off of the face of the earth. What happened to him after those three singles were released? Well, it could be because he only had one album in 2015 and didn’t follow it up until three years later. Also the songs, “Trap Queen,” “679” and “My Way” seem like the same song but only slightly different. One can’t deny that they carry the same themes, similar beats and vocals.
Every song he put out was a deluded version of “Trap Queen”, which probably made fans not want to listen to the whole album. I know I didn’t want to support him after he displayed that he was only a one trick pony. He should have expanded himself musically so others would be more inclined to follow his career and support him. He should have capitalized on the hype that “Trap Queen” brought it. He recently released an album, For My Fans in 2018 and I didn’t even hear of the release.
I was rooting for Fetty Wap and I hated seeing him fall off. Now that there are so many new rappers in the game it might be hard to have a comeback. I believe in him though, he probably has just been lazy in the studio. Get back on your grind Fetty, the fans miss you.
