Fetty Wap has a lot to say on 'Zavier.’ It’s his first album since being released from prison
Fetty Wap dropped 17 tracks from 123 recorded songs as a fresh start post-incarceration, blending fun and reflection without focusing on prison experiences.
- On Friday, Fetty Wap, born Willie Maxwell, releases his new album Zavier, marking his first major project since completing his prison sentence.
- In January, Fetty Wap returned to home confinement after serving part of a six-year sentence for his role in a New York-based drug trafficking scheme.
- Recording 123 songs with collaborators, Fetty Wap selected 17 for the final list, a dramatic shift from the 15-minute phone calls that constrained King Zoo production.
- Recapturing the energy of his 2015 debut album, Fetty Wap ensures Zavier showcases multiple musical styles—fun, serious, lustful, and tender sounds across the project.
- The track Remember, featuring Chicago artist Herbo, serves as a diaristic ode spanning his life stages, positioning Zavier as both reintroduction and new chapter.
