Indy Spotlight: Fat Chynia from Columbus, Ohio

She’s unlike these other artists.. we promise you that. Skilled with flow and fashion, the queen is here to take her throne..

fat-chyna

Explain who you are for those who don’t know?

I’m a Fat Bitch with a heart of a lion. Fat Girl Living in her Fatabulous World. I am real, I’m different than everybody else, I uplift all women but my main goal is to make my Fat Women Feel beautiful. I’m all around in my opinion a product of  what I’ve been through in my life. I’m true to who I am and I honestly don’t give a fuck who feels what about me. I’m a fat bitch that’s comfortable in her skin. I’m Fat Chynia

How did you come up with your names?

When I was younger I went by PeeKaChuu. That was my first official nickname I made at 14. My old best friend and I came up with the names. She was Pooh Babes and I was PeeKaChuu. Two peas in a Pod. That was our rap name. I’m grown as fuck now so it’s Fat Chynia. So anyways I’m fat obvisouly, but people tell me I look like a fat China doll. A lot of people might think “Why couldn’t she just look like a China doll”. That what makes me unique. I’m cute, FAT, and look like a China Doll. So instead of Fat China it’s Fat Chynia(Chy-Nia).

What’s it like growing up where you from?

What is it like growing up in Columbus, Ohio. Great question, shit I love my city. I’ve been here all my life. I know my city in and out. My biggest problem with my city is they act like they don’t like fat bitches(women). My city treat big bitches like they are a different type of specie. That’s the world tho so I guess that’s irrelevant. Now that I’m grown I feel like you have to kiss ass or befriend people you usually wouldn’t to get people to hear you out. I’m not with that fake shit. I will invest my money and fuck with who fuck with me. My city lit tho. We got hella of talent, but our city needs to work together so we can get out of this jam. To sum it up my city is hard to please. If you trash they gone tell you, if you Hot they might tell you. It’s FUCKING COLUMBUS OHIO. RIP to all the fallen soliders from 614.

How did you get into music?

My dad is big hustler from Columbus. My dad use to rap back in the 90s. So I look up to him. I heard I started free styling when I was 4. Who knows what the fuck I was talking about, but I’m sure it was about SIPPY cups with my juicy juicy lmao. I’ve been rapping forever and I finally got serious about it maybe the beginning of 2017. My bitch Bunni Monroe got me in the studio to try it out and I made my first song called Run with it. It was nice. I loved the feeling of being in the studio. It felt like home. Sometimes I feel like I can’t express myself and my music does that for me. I can talk about dog ass niggas, my life, working, money, or whatever else I want. I feel like the goat in my family. Anything I do is never good enough for my family. Everything I wanted to do flopped because if they didn’t support it I didn’t want to do it. I’ve never been in love until I met the studio. With this music shit I don’t care who support because I love it. It’s my home, and it’s where I want to be.

What makes you different than other artist?

Do I have to say it again. I’m a Fat Girl, tatted like a migo, stylish, and I don’t follow the trend. Baby I’m Fat Chynia. Just look at me you can tell the difference. I’m going to show the world better than I can tell the world. When y’all see it y’all gone be like “Yea she different than other artist”. My story is me, my life is me, and what’s for me is for me.

What are you currently working on?

Right now I’m working on shooting the video for “Ima Dogg”. I’m working on my second mixtape Called “Fatabulous”. So please Lookout. Im working on my craft and working to get my face out there.

Anything you would like to say?

Don’t Sleep on me, and if you do IMA WAKE YOUR ASS UP.

Get to know: Fisher Kay

k

Explain who you are for those who don’t know

Fisher Kay. Rapper/producer guy. Backwoods enthusiast. A dude with the internet.

How did you come up with your name?

When I was like twelve, I came up with Fisher Kay. I was just starting to even write raps back then. I really don’t remember how I came up with it. It was originally “Fisher K.” until I was like fourteen then I changed it to Fisher Kay because it just looks better. Nobody was feeling the name at first. You can’t really make people call you something if they don’t want to. When I was fourteen, I dropped my first release ever. After that, everybody started calling me Fisher. I think it’s cause at that point, I had a reason that filled the name. Nobody was really trying to rap back then. I was always ya local SoundCloud rapper though. Nowadays, most people close to me just call me Fish. Fish, Fisher, Fisher Kay, any is good with me.

Where are you from?

Fitchburg, MA, baby.

Whats it like growing up where your from?

Boring. My friends & I had fun though. You gotta make the most out of what you have. Fitchburg is my muse. The things I experienced growing up here molded me into the person I am now. If I could do it all again, it’d be in Fitchburg with the same friends I still have now.

How did you get into music?

I always liked music, ever since I was little. I never really got into sports or other stuff like that. When I was like twelve, I decided to start writing. When I was like fourteen, I started recording and producing some. I started uploading some stuff online and the rest is history. There was never really any person who directed me towards this, I just kind of gravitated towards it naturally over time.

What makes you different than other artists?

I’m 100 percent me. I’ll never change my style to please anyone. I know who I am. I’m genuine. I’ll let the music speak for itself.

What are you currently working on?

Just tryna get a lot of music recorded. It’ll probably lead to another tape down the line. Definitely more visuals in the works as well. Got some more stuff coming with my man, E.L.F. Shoutout to him. Chxpo & I have a song produced by him dropping soon. I’ve got a track produced by Oogie Mane that I wanna drop soon too hopefully. Super excited about that. Right now, it’s more about working than releasing though. I’ve also got some things that I’ve been working on with my older brother who recently got into producing too so, that’s really dope as well.

Anything you would like to say?

That I appreciate each and every person who has helped me and supported me through my experiences so far with music.

Pharaohs IN America

INDIANAPOLIS, IN – Candid, powerful, and refreshingly honest, Zay Avenue (Born Willie James Parker) is a breath of fresh air; true poetry to escape a noisy world. The word “escape” embodies much of the meaning behind the artist’s work. Raised amidst the struggles of a difficult upbringing in the streets of Indianapolis, music was “an escape from reality.

Get to know: Witness

wilt

Explain who you are for those who don’t know

I’m Witt Black aka wittness. I’m a 21 year old college kid at the University of Alabama and I spit hot fire.

How did you come up with your name?

It actually took a while to come up with my rap name “wittness”. I tried out a bunch of different names involving my real name and this one was the least lame lmao. I also chose wittness because it rhymes with a lot of things so it’s easy to drop my rap name in a verse.

Where are you from?

I’m from a small town in north Alabama called Elkmont, aka BFE. Like you can’t even find this place with a GPS.

What’s it like growing up where you’re from?

I grew up on a farm in the middle of nowhere. So pretty much I had to help my dad and paw paw do a bunch hard labor, like hauling hay and shit.

How did you get into music?

When I was little I listened to country music because my parents liked it, but I thought it was hot garbage. When I was in the 3rd grade I started listening to rap and I fell in love with it. Then I started writing songs when I was in the 5th grade.

What makes you different from other artists?

Well for one, I’m white af, but ironically my last name is Black. I frequently try to add humor to my songs because I’m a pretty funny dude and that’s who I am as a person. I try to rap about things that actually relate to my personality and my life instead of making stories up and trying to act hard. I have a different kind of voice than most other rappers so try to use that to my advantage. Like who tf wants to sound like everyone else? I also try to not swear so much in my raps because I realized that I had a much more expanded vocabulary than these other rappers so instead of cussing I could find better words to use. I also make my own beats and produce everything myself including mixing and mastering.

What are you currently working on?

Right now I’m working on a few things. I got another tape coming that I use other rappers beats like Minnesota by lil Yatchy. Pretty much like a No Ceilings type thing. I got another single coming called “New Balances” which the premise of the song is about New Balances shoes. I’ve been rocking them shits since the 7th grade. Later I want to do an old school type mixtape.
