If y’all don’t know, Fat Trel is huge in DC right now, but here’s a new demographic for the 20-year-old rapper: the FADER. Andrew Nosnitsky wrote a brief but definitive piece for #74, on stands now, and it’s just been posted online. Click here to read it, and after the jump, two great songs by Trel to get you up to speed.
My favorite “Oh Let’s Do It” freestyle. The top YouTube commenter puts it best: “I listened to this for Wale, I listened to this again for Fat Trel.”
Over Bmarz’s ridiculous Wale sample from “Pretty Girls” — “Tokyo spinach, yeah shawty that’s G shit” — Trel puts forth the go-go/rap jam of the summer.
