Fetty Wap does it for the kids. The "679" rapper just released a bundle of new music in the past 24 hours trying to inspire the youth to be better. His first single "My Environment" touches on the troubles he faced growing up and how that influenced the man he is today. The second track, "Wake Up" is smooth stoner anthem dedicated to all of high school graduates in 2016.
"My Environment" is a bit more upbeat as Fetty reflects on the tough streets that made him. "Shoutout to my hood, 1200 Harlem World, ayy / 22nd block, ayy / Servin' party packs, ayy / Make the party rock, ayy / We some young gang bangers makin' a lot of guap, ayy," he raps in the first verse with plenty of shouts to go along with it.
It isn't his most polished song, but that can be part of the Wap appeal.
His second track "Wake Up" is dedicated to all of the kids who are able to smoke weed and still get good grades in school.
He released a statement on Twitter admitting school was never really important to him, but he found a way to make it in life.
He gets personal, discussing how his eye made school tough for him and he dropped out without a plan. He encourages everyone to just stay focused on their dreams and follow them no matter what it is that "moves them to be successful."
Though most kids have not graduated yet, congrats to everyone getting ready to graduate as class of ZOO16.
