The voice for the underdogs, Buffalo, NY Rapper Yung Fetti’s path seemed destined to elevate from your everyday teenager to a rapstar. Emerging from a music scene and city that is known for its grit and toughness, Fetti exudes a confidence and charisma that made him an immediate Artist to Watch as soon as he entered the rap game.
“I feel like I’ve always lived the rapper life,” says Yung Fetti. The support from his early football and basketball careers spilled over into Fetti’s music ambitions. In 2019, Yung Fetti started making music with a Freestyle that caught the attention of his father who encouraged him to continue molding his talent.
Yung Fetti quickly took Buffalo by storm with the backing of his label Money $et, dropping his first single in 2019 titled “Over Me”, followed by the EP’s Yung Goat and Voice of Edward Mordrake in collaboration with label mate Hoodstar Jack. Yung Fetti later released his first full length project Gatoworld, proving that he is a rising force in the music industry through his hard work and consistency.

“Work harder than you speak about it,” says Yung Fetti when asked about his mindset about his music. “Things take time and as long you keep putting the work in, the success is going to eventually come”.
When discussing artists who have influenced his music, Yung Fetti fittingly lists stars Lil Durk and NBA Youngboy. Fetti credits Hoodstar Jack and his city of Buffalo with helping him develop his versatile sound as an artist. In addition to his rising popularity as a rapper, Fetti wants to be known for more than the music.
“Get your head on right as fast as possible,” says Yung Fetti. “A lot of people don’t realize how important mental health is. For the youth that look up to me, I want to be an advocate for that to them.”
