Fredo Bang clawed his way out of Baton Rouge, LA and to the forefront of the game. Since emerging in 2015, he has posted up nearly 1 billion streams and earned praise from Rolling Stone, XXL, The FADER, DJ Booth, and HYPEBEAST.
He has collaborated with everyone from YNW Melly to Moneybagg Yo to Kevin Gates. 2018’s 2 Face Bang mixtape put Fredo on the map with the breakout single “Oouuhh” (over 24 million Spotify streams), and a streak of hits including “Shootas on the Roof” and “Father” (over 22 million YouTube views). The street took deeper notice in 2019, with the Big Ape mixtape and a non-stop string of regional single + video hits that included "Oouuh" Remix featuring Kevin Gates, "Gangsta Talk" featuring NLE Choppa, and "Story To Tell" (Remix) featuring Moneybagg Yo.
Fredo entered into a partnership with Def Jam in the fall 2019, and the hits continued unabated with "Face Down" and "Vest Up," then "Yo Slime," and "Waitin 4" (with a beat from Hardbody B-Eazy and DJ Chose). Fredo launched into fan favorite projects Pain Made Me Numb in November, with the single + video releases "Cap A Lot" and "Slidin." April 2020 brought the back-to-back releases of the single + video “Trust Issues,” and Fredo’s debut album, Most Hated, executive produced by Moneybagg Yo. The next string of new tracks, “Receipts,” “Top,” “Monsters” "Clock Out" (#4 trending on YouTube), "Second Line," and "No Security" featuring Kevin Gates pointed the way to In The Name Of Gee (September 2020). Fredo caught fire again caught fire in 2021, with the Deluxe Album In The Name of Gee (Still Most Hated) with "Big Steppa" and "Loose Screws (Blues Clues).”
The unshakable “Top (Remix)” [feat. Lil Durk] eclipsed 42 million global streams and 21 million views in a few months’ time. As the project tallied 160 million total streams, it captured #2 on the Billboard Current Rap Albums and Current R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts, and cracked the Top 40 of the 200 albums chart. Murder Made Me arrived in August 2021, his sixth mixtape in less than two and a half years, with a cast of collaborators that included Polo G. Coi Leray, and Mozzy. After a long, pandemic-driven break, Fredo returned in April 2022, with his seventh mixtape, Two Face Bang 2 that included the new single "No Love" featuring Sleepy Hallow, the biggest first week at Spotify of Fredo’s career. Flaunt predicted, “Fredo Bang is the next rap superstar to come out of the south,” and he proves the claim true with Two-Face Bang 2, and more music on the horizon
