Everyone always asks, “what happened to Fetty Wap’s eye?” New Jersey rapper Fetty Wap has spoken to a handful of media outlets, since releasing his hit song “Trap Queen.”
During his press-run, Fetty has answered a wide variety of questions, but he’s consistently dodged one inquiry concerning his missing eye.
In a new interview with Shade 45’s DJ Self, Fetty finally shut-down the rumors.
“I tell everybody it’s nothing, because it’s really nothing to me,” he says within the 2 minute clip. “What happened is, when I was little I had gotten into a little accident and it gave me congenital glaucoma in both of my eyes. The doctor saved one, I was blessed to still have my vision. That’s it. That’s the story.”
