It’s all about staying down with who you came up with.
Fetty Wap exploded into the game with his viral single “Trap Queen.” He was often debated at first but the music started to speak for itself. He began to give us hit after hit and soon it was clear the Fetty Wap was here to stay. He came in with his team 1738 Remy Boyz and has never traded on them. Through it all, he’s made sure that he puts on for them and not only shines a light on them but puts them in a position to win.
“Zoo, that my gang, fold gang lovin’
Monty up next, niggas upset” — Fetty Wap, Back It Up.
Monty is Fetty Wap’s best friend and he’s been in the spotlight along with Fetty. His features on tracks like “My Way”, “Juug”, “679” and others have made him recognizable in the game. He was also featured on half of Fetty’s debut album. For Fetty to do this he has to have incredible faith in Monty. As a rising artist, it’s a risk to put your best friend on your hit records. You don’t know how the people are going to take it. The bond between the two really speaks for itself. For someone who has stayed down through it all, Fetty is repaying him with great opportunities to establish himself and make his own money.
“Remy Boyz they know us
679 this is Zoo year baby
Monty and the Zoovier baby” — Fetty Wap, 679.
He gave Monty and his crew so much more than a cosign. We see friends in the rap game all the time that share their friend’s music links in hopes that they’ll start to pop. Fetty Wap didn’t give us a chance to sleep on Monty. He put him on the radio, performances, and constant radio spins. You can’t listen to Fetty Wap without hearing Monty as well. He does it all with no second guessing. He doesn’t worry about what the people think. He understands that Monty is his best friend and if you want Fetty then you have to take everything that he comes with as well.
Monty has shown Fetty Wap that he can trust him as well. He’s never delivered a terrible verse or put him in a position that jeopardizes his career. He’s taken everything in stride and has used every step to establish himself. Along with being featured on Fetty Wap’s tracks, he’s put out his own music and shown just as much love in return. This is how a true friendship operates. True friends help each other in everything that they do. When you’re really down for someone you’re going to do what you can for them no matter what. Real friends also never ask for too much and appreciate everything you do for them. Their chemistry has been one of the highlights of their careers and gives them an organic touch. It’s nice to see rappers look out for each other and not let the money come between them.
“Don’t worry about my niggas cause I got ‘em” — Fetty Wap, RGF Island.

In the music industry filled with smokes and mirrors, you have to keep the real ones around you. Staying down and true always pays off in the end.
