New Jersey rapper Fetty Wap has put an end to the controversy surrounding him switching up his hairstyle with some instant dreadlocks.

According to Wap, there is a real story behind where he bought the dreads.

“They’re real dreads, but I didn’t grow them. It’s a lady that I know from Newark, [New Jersey] who cut her hair off. She was a powerful person to me. She spoke a lot of positive things. You don’t just put anybody’s hair on your head. Since I did it, the last 50 songs I’ve did, I’ve recorded, they’ve all been some of the hottest songs I’ve did, just from the good energy I’ve been getting.” (Hot 97)

Fetty jumped onto social media recently to touch up on his new look.

A few weeks ago, Fetty cleared up rumors about his visually impaired eye.

“I had glaucoma when I was little – matter of fact, my mother is here,” Fetty said during an interview. “I was six months when I – oh wait, I learned something new, I was ‘born’ with glaucoma, lost the eye at six months and then I got reconstructed surgery when I was twelve and I just stopped wearing the prosthesis because I didn’t want to look like everybody else. See, I didn’t get shot or hit with a firecracker – somebody said that I got shot in my face with a shotgun. I heard worse stories but the crazy thing about that is [my face is intact].” (TMZ)
