Watts native and rising hip-hop sensation Fedie Demarco is making waves with a powerful resurgence of authentic lyricism in Gangster Rap. In a genre often crowded with trends, Fedie distinguishes himself by bringing back the raw, unapologetic essence that made Gangster Rap a cultural force.

Hailing from the legendary streets of Watts, Fedie Demarco is poised to leave an indelible mark on the rap scene. His music stands out not only for its impeccable flow but also for his ability to infuse genuine lyricism without succumbing to the overly commercialized and sometimes corny Hip-Hop flavors prevalent in the industry.

Fedie Demarco shared insights into his musical journey and the inspiration behind his distinctive approach:

“I lived in California all my life, born in Watts and LA,  due to my moms being a single parent, having to move around a lot with no stability, it’s challenging at times but overall just like anywhere else, locals wanna be heard amongst their peers and outside their community. Everyone has a voice nowadays, and besides the West Coast charged up this new generation .”

Fedie Demarco's latest release, "Grand Imperial," serves as a testament to his commitment to genuine storytelling and impactful lyricism. The track, a remake of Rakim's classic "Microphone Fiend," pays homage to the roots of hip-hop while infusing a contemporary flair. Ice-T, recognizing Fedie's talent, collaborated with him on the track, adding his own touch to the East Coast-inspired West Coast sound.

The music video, directed by Ice-T himself and filmed by the talented Voice2hard, captures the essence of West Coast hip-hop with a raw, authentic feel. Fedie Demarco's refusal to compromise on his artistic vision sets him apart as a force to be reckoned with in the rap game.
