Text from my friend Josh: “Do you like Fetty Wap?”
Me: “Yes”
Josh: “His new tracks a hit imo”
I’m fascinated by the production (RGF)–this is the first time I’ve heard a mainstream rapper on a future bass beat.
Wap’s other new records (“With You” and “Like A Star (feat. Nicki Minaj)”) also feature a slightly-below-the-radar-EDM sound (RGF is killing it). I wonder how they’ll do on the radio, and whether we’ll start hearing more future bass or tropical rap songs. Huh.
