With any of his releases, I know Fari's gonna have crazy samples, outrageously cocky bars, and maybe even a guest appearance from Yash Flee or Pat Guwop. DIAMONDS, PEARLS, & HOODRAT GIRLS has all of that and more. There's samples of iconic WWE entrance songs (on Sexy Boy), plenty of Jersey Club, crazy references to rappers' girlfriends (on Waydamin), and the usual dose of Pretty Boy Clique sh*t. In just 12 songs Fari has seamlessly fused the style and bravado of both Chicago and his newfound home (New York City) and turned it up 100 notches. It's obvious that Fari is at his best when he's exploring new sounds and reimagining Hip-Hop classics. As a whole, Fari's newest release is simply cool as hell and really establishes him both as a student of Hip-Hop and as an artist willing to put his own twist and flare on it. - From Chicago to the World
The new album is rolling across your streaming platforms ready for you to press play and go up. Fari packs 12-track that will catch your ear with the blend of production and emphatic wordplay.
Singles like 'Waydamin', 'On Fye', and 'Jersey' from Fari display how to to the times Fari artistry is. Diamonds, Pearls, and Hoodrats Girls is a stamp that he is swimming upstream for the stake in the new wave of music. - Illanoize Radio
In his latest visual 'Waydamin,' he's going all the way up with the crew, guided with the creative vision of director Jasiah Powers. On 'Waydamin,' Fari sidesteps the pitfalls from those looking to become a rapper's baby mama, while continuously progressing down a unique course.
Adapting to the vibrant energy of New York, he continues to deliver knocking tracks while constantly pushing the boundaries of his artistry. - Illanoize Radio

Bio
Fari Wopavelli is a 22 year old MC born and raised on Chicago’s Southside. With inspirations ranging from the likes of aggressive lyricism Juelz Santana and 50 Cent to the contemporary melodies of Kanye West and Pharrell, he can paint a picture unlike most. His first recording session was Christmas of 2016. In an UBM True Star radio interview he stated, “ I wouldn’t say cocky, but I’m real confident I can hold my own with anybody”. That mentality has taken him from the Southside of Chicago all the way to NYC at the new RocNation School of Music under the likes of 9th Wonder and Young Guru. With the new moniker Pretty Boy, he is not afraid to touch Kanye or Griselda esque soul sample beats all the way to soul drill beats of the modern times. A name change serves as the beginning of a total rebrand to separate the grown man from the catalog he created as a high school kid finding himself both in the music and in life.
