Rap star Fetty Wap is finally out of prison. And now that he is a free man, fans are excited to hear new music from the one-time hitmaker. However, don’t expect him to talk about his experiences from behind the wall in his new music.
Fetty Wap Explains Why He Won’t Address Prison Bid in New Music
Following his release, the Remy Boyz artist appeared on Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club. During his interview, co-host Loren Lorosa would talk about his experience in prison. In response, the New Jersey native explained that he would rather talk about more “important” things.
“Honestly, I don’t feel like that’s important,” Fetty Wap answered, as caught by 2Cool2Blog on X. “I did my time. It’s a lot of rappers that went to jail – I mean, I hate to say it like that – that came home. If they chose to talk about their jail s**t, that’s them.”

Fetty also went on to explain that reliving his prison experience would be a disservice to all of the other inmates who held him up while he was in prison. According to the rap artist, they implored him to leave that life behind.
“Me, I did my time with the guys, and then, they all, ‘Leave this s**t behind you. When you walk out, leave it here. We’re trying to see you on TV.’ In jail, there are three things that you don’t turn the TV [off] from: sports, news, Love & Hip Hop. […] ‘We want to see you on TV, we’re trying to hear you on the radio. In 20 days, I want to hear something new on the computer.’ That’s the type of motivation I was having,” Fetty added. “So to come home and to talk about that s**t, it’s pointless. I did my time in there. […] [My writing] will change, I guess. It’s always going to change, especially when you’re trying to be creative. I just feel like I appreciate music more.”
