Trap&B artist named Fetty Wap known for sharing his love about his ride or die chick on his breakout hit “Trap Queen” will play Mile One Stadium in St. John's in September.
Trap&B is a recent sub-genre fusing other genres.
The show starts Sept. 20 at 8 p.m. Peter Jackson, a Canadian hip hop artist, will be a special guest at the concert.
Willie Maxwell II “Fetty Wap” hails from New Jersey, calling home to a city called Paterson, according to a news release from Mile One. Currently, “Trap Queen” is No. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100, No. 13 on iTunes, 19 million YouTube plays and 22 million SoundCloud plays.
On his records, Fetty Wap’s wobbly voice cuts through trap instrumentals and melodies, making his honest and aggressive lyrics a staple of Jersey’s rap scene, Mile One said.
This year, Fetty Wap’s profile rose when he earned co-signs from stars like Trey Songz, Rihanna and Kanye West. Since then, Fetty Wap has been featured in Billboard, Complex and nominated for the 2015 XXL Freshman Class, a coveted list of the next wave of rap stars, Mile One said.
Tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. and range in price from $45-55 (including tax, plus surcharge) and will be available at Mile One Centre Box Office, 709-576-7657 and online at mileonecentre.com.
