I got the shout from my Brooklyn, (NYC) fam last year to promote a young Pittsburgh rapper named Joey Fattz aka Bazooka Joe.
Joey is a passionate rapper who enthuses and embraces the facets of real MC culture; his story telling and pen game are of a higher echelon.
His delivery is both witty and heartfelt, his music brings you back to the roots, back to the struggle, to the grittiness (griminess) in the streets of Pittsburgh.
His lyrics are a true look into his life and the deep, soul clenching struggle from which hip hop was truly born.
Joey Fattz was born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA.and has lived in neighborhoods on every side of the city and he has left his mark all over PA.
He has performed from Philly to DC and collaborated with underground cats like E. Dot, Ricky P and also had the opportunity to work with more mainstream artists and DJ’s such as French Montana, Omilio Sparks and DJ Envy.
Obviously a fan of lyricism and golden era hip hop where mcs were heralded for punchlines. His music is universally appealing to all true hip hop fans.
Almost a year on and having put up a couple of singles and videos; encorporating his crew ‘Grimey Click’
I present to y’all the brand new Joey Fattz Issue 1.5..
The lead single ‘Love Is For Fools’ is a boom bap soulful heart wrenching track which embodies Joey’s love of Hip Hop, his passion and his story telling. His guest collaborators on the project include Sicky Brett, Tuki Carter, Grimey Click who all wax lyrical and fuse a well produced album.
Standout tracks :- ‘Reach The Top’ / ‘Get This Together’ / ‘Never Meet Again’
“Love Is For Fools” is the official video leaked from the highly anticipated second instalment of Fattz’s “Bazooka Joe” series, “Bazooka Joe 1.5″
