YOUNG FADDIE

With the world of Hip Hop currently dominating the U.S charts, it's always a breath of fresh air when a new artist steps up to the mic... Enter 17 year old, Young Faddie. Born and raised in the Park Hill Drive projects, Pittsburgh, Faddie began rapping at the young age of 10, after listening to 50 cents 'Get Rich or Die Tryin'. Motivated by the harsh, yet real life lyrics, Faddie found himself being able to relate to the streets rather than the classroom. When Faddie turned 13 this quickly became apparent after he was sentenced to serve time in a juvenile centre. Spending many nights writing, Faddie was determined to get his material heard and after his release, went about building his own studio where he could record and promote his music. Today, Faddie maintains a street image which can be heard throughout his lyrics.
