Fetty Wap’s hit song “Trap Queen” was professionally released in 2015, quickly earning the rapper recognition. His fortune stems from song and album sales, touring, YouTube, and investments.

The “Blasting Fetty Wap on the JBL Speaker” meme soon went beyond the historical context usage. TikTokers also began using it in videos that were about fictional films and television shows.

Fetty Wap was one of six people charged with "conspiring to distribute and possess controlled substances" in October 2021, according to a release from the U.S. Department of Justice.
