Indeed despite being Fetty Wap’s first song, “Trap Queen” was a huge hit which put the artist on the map. In fact even heading into the third decade of the 21 st century it remains the rapper’s signature tune, making him somewhat akin to a one-hit wonder. And he did so alongside Fall Out Boy.Īnd at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards, the music video to “Trap Queen” took home a trophy in the category of Artist to Watch. This performance actually happened on the 12th of April 2015 at the MTV Movie Awards. The first time Fetty Wap performed “Trap Queen” on television (in addition to his first time being on TV in general) was in 2015. Fadd also acted as the official producer of the track. “Trap Queen” was written by Fetty Wap and Tony Fadd. This track was officially released on 8 March 2014. The labels behind it are 300 Entertainment and RGF. And it is featured on Fetty Wap’s eponymous maiden album which came out in 2015. Moreover throughout 2014, a number of different versions of “Trap Queen” came out, including the one which was featured on Fetty’s mixtape “Up Next” even prior to his debut album. However, being that Fetty has become a music superstar, he has made it his mission to support her even after they had broken up. However, such was not the case. In fact this song is based on a real-life lady that the rapper was dating at the time who did in fact partner with him in his monetary aspirations and held him down in general. And for the record, they have since gone their separate ways, and she has gone on to pursue more legitimate sources of income. Other notable parts include Fetty giving a shoutout to his crew, the Remy Boyz 1738. And in the first verse you may notice he implies that his trap queen is also a stripper. But more to the point, she is also his partner in crime. In other words, he introduces her to dealing drugs, and eventually she develops the same goal he has, which is to make a lot of money slingin’. Indeed even if a listener misses the references to d**g dealing, which according to Fetty many of them have, they would still pick up on the fact that this song is largely themed on the acquisition of riches. You see a trap, as used within the context of this song, is actually a colloquial term for a trap house. And a trap house, succinctly put, is a place where people go to buy drugs – of the illegal variety of course. So the titular “trap queen” is in fact Fetty Wap’s sweetheart.
