Q. Good day, Ty Fetti! We appreciate you taking the time to speak with us. The first thing we want to know is how would you describe your sound to someone who’s never heard your music before?
A. I would describe my sound to someone who’s never heard my music before, as a storyteller of the treacherous New York City — growing up in Harlem and overcoming the pain, stress, and struggle of being another young African American artist from New York trying to prosper through rap music.
Q. Is there a specific song in your catalog that you feel defines who you are as an artist? Why that one?
A. The one song I feel defines who I am as an artist is my track “R.I.P Fetti Kev.” It defines who I am as an artist because it explains the roughness of me growing up and the pain in my life I went through — losing a family member (cousin) and losing brothers all the time — and still pushing through it, putting on for my ones that are gone until I’m where they would want me to be.
Q. If you could collaborate with any artist, living or dead, who would it be and why?
A. If I had the chance to collaborate with any artist, it would be several artist such as Neek Bucks, Lil Tjay, and Lil Durk. They’re my favorite artists and my motivation — the reason I wanted to start showing my pain and story as well.
Q. What's the biggest risk you've taken in your career so far, and what did you learn from it?
A. The biggest risk I’ve taken in my career so far has been sacrificing every dollar I earned to put into my career, because I believe in myself no matter how much it costs.
Q. If this interview was the last thing someone read before listening to your music, what would you want them to know?
A. If this interview was the last thing someone read before listening to my music, I would want the reader to know that I’m no different than them. I’m using the pain in my heart and the things I go through to push through the struggle — and you can do anything you put your mind to as long as you’re willing to invest in yourself. With that being said, you are your own boss as long as you know your abilities — and I AM AN ARTIST.
