Fetty Wap Speaks On His Booking Fee Falling To $5000 From $250K

Fetty Wap shot to fame in 2014 with the release of his hit song, “Trap Queen.” The song peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100. Then, in 2015, two more of his singles, “679” with Remy Boyz and My Way” landed within the top 10 on the chart. As Fetty’s star was on the rise, so was his booking fee. In a recent interview with Million Dollaz Worth of Game, the New Jersey rapper said that at one point, it cost $250,000 to book him. Unfortunately, that changed quite fast. During his conversation with hosts Gillie Da King and Wallo267, Fetty revealed that in just a few years, the SoundCloud generation reigned supreme By 2017, it was over. 2017, that's when the Lil Yachtys and Lil Uzi Verts and all of them, that was they time. 21 Savage, Kodak Black, that's all the time. You know what I'm saying? People don't understand that part,” the 34-year-old said. “When it's time to get booked, it's, ‘Yo, tell Fetty we got 5,000 for him.’ What the fuck?” “My sister called me one day. ‘Hey, bro, they just came to the house. You got to pay some taxes and all this other shit.’ I said, ‘Ah, damn,’” he continued. “It was a lot. I'm just like, I'm fucked up right now. I don't got it for that.” Fetty shared that his sister, Divinity Maxwell-Butts, was the only one who held him down when he was incarcerated.
