P Dice

At Kanye West's Roc City Classic show in New York City on Thursday night (Feb. 12), the rap superstar brought out a slew of big-name guest stars, including Big Sean, Travi$ Scott, Pusha T and 2 Chainz. West also welcomed a relatively unfamiliar face to the stage: Fetty Wap, the 24-year-old rap sensation, who performed his giddy rap single "Trap Queen" at the concert. Wap's unexpected performance had West beaming onstage, Jay Z and Beyonce dancing along in the audience, and thousands of onlookers at the show and on the live stream asking, "Who is this guy?"

Some of us have long declared "Trap Queen" to be our winter rap anthem, but for those who are unfamiliar with the oeuvre of Fetty Wap, check out eight things you need to know about the rap wunderkind and his breakout hit:

1. He's from Paterson, New Jersey. Like Redman and Queen Latifah before him, Fetty Wap hails from the Garden State, calling home a city that's about a 40-minute train ride away from Manhattan. Wap is one of the members of Remy Boyz 1738, a rap troupe that also features P-Dice and Montana "Monty" Buckz. The three MCs are constantly collaborating -- Monty recently released a single titled "OverNight" with Wap, while P-Dice and Monty teamed up last month on the track "Jalapeño." - Billboard Online
