Fat Trel is gaining a lot of attention in the buildup to his latest project, Nightmare On E Street. First we interviewed and did an exclusive in-studio shoot with Trel back in December, and now we just did another interview with the Slutty Boyz head honcho this past week. However, the most comprehensive piece on Trel to date has come by way of The Washington City Paper. Ramon Ramirez spent a couple months researching and hanging out with the Slutty Boyz and now he drops this article on the front page of the paper. Check out the quote by RESPECT. contributor Peter Marrack at the bottom of Page 4.
Here’s an excerpt from the article:
It’s shortly after six, and Trel’s 26-year-old brother Kel and I keep the engine running outside a warehouse bearing the unlikely name Catwalk Studios. We’re waiting for someone to show up. Trel and his crew arrive after stopping for Wendy’s. He’s detailing the plot of Contagion, with spoilers.
To understand Trel, you have to know his posse. V is Vance McDonald, the president of Da Company 1135. Ricky B. is Ricardo Jones, Trel’s personal assistant and driver, who talks fast and wears sunglasses at night. They also call him “Hol Time,” because he’s always around. “I always supported him behind the scenes,” Ricky B. says. “Trel calls me his uncle. I offer life advice. I’m going to be by his side whether he succeeds or fails. Hol Time: Everything is present.” Killa’s just Killa. He makes vague references to underworld know-how.
