In this interview, Arshan speaks with Yung Fazo in Brooklyn’s Fort Greene Park during KTO’s recent trip to NYC. Yung Fazo is a 16-year-old rapper from Long Island, NY who’s been making waves in the underground since his start in 2019. His song “Adding” featuring SoFaygo currently has over 5.7 million plays on SoundCloud, while his music video for “Flex Like This'', which released in June 2021, has over 161,000 views. His most recent project, #frvralone, is a 6-song EP which released on August 13, 2021 and is available on all platforms.
During their conversation, Yung Fazo talks about being from Long Island and what his interests were before rapping, envisioning himself being involved in business, real estate, or stocks so he could live freely and comfortably. He outlines his start making music, including participating in choir when he was younger, before talking about his experience as a rapper from a Muslim & Guyanese family. Fazo describes himself as “pretty religious” and reveals that he prays everyday. He details his parents initial reaction to his music and admits that they now are just happy to see him do what he loves. He talks about his “animated” aesthetic and some of his major influences, including Playboi Carti, Lil Uzi Vert, XXXtentacion, and rage beats. He admits he’s started to get tired of rage beats so he’s been switching up his sound, like on his newest single, “Let You Go”. Arshan asks Yung Fazo how he would spend a budget to support his career, to which Fazo responds that he would spend the money on new clothes, marketing, music videos, and new audio equipment. Both Arshan and Yung Fazo give props to artists signed to Carti’s “Opium” record label, namely Destroy Lonely and Ken Carson, for having their own aesthetic which is constantly incorporated into their work.
Fazo details how he envisions his sounds evolving over time and the effect he wants his music to have on his audience. He explains not wanting to be boxed into the “brown lane”, aka brown artists being limited to brown audiences. Yung Fazo also describes how he deals with haters and Arshan relates to him on how they are both trolled for being brown and in hip-hop. They also talk about NAV, and Fazo explains how NAV is one of his inspirations and reveals his favorite NAV song: “Fell in Love”.NAV recently followed Fazo on Instagram as well. He details his friendships with rapper peers including SoFaygo, Baby Santana, Xhulooo, and Slump6s. He explains how he’s known SoFaygo since his start in 2019, when they met through a Discord server for upcoming rappers. As the interview comes to an end, Yung Fazo discusses meeting with record labels while considering staying independent, and discloses the biggest misconceptions about himself and his music. Kids Take Over is based in Vancouver, Canada.
