Either way, each designation conveys a piece of who this enigmatic performer is and what he has to offer. At 23 years of age, Waka Flocka artist is the youngest member of the So Icey Boyz - a popular Atlanta-based rap group signed to Gucci Mane's So Icey Entertainment/1017 Brick Squad, which he joined in 2004. Although Waka has released over 5 street mixtapes, he hopes to continue to brand his own niche and genre of music that is as multi-faceted as his monikers. He describes his music as a mix of Run DMC blended with his generational vibe, laid over a southern track.

  • WAKA FLOCKA FLAME Triple F – Friends, Fans & Family 6.13.12 1017 Bricksquad / Warner Bros
    WAKA FLOCKA FLAME Triple F – Friends, Fans & Family 6.13.12 1017 Bricksquad / Warner Bros. Record Dismissing complex lyrics in favor of adrenaline shots and ad-libs has worked for Waka Flocka Flame before. The rapper, meanwhile, quickly transitioned from a protégé of Atlanta MC Gucci Mane to star in his own right. With Triple F Life, the challenge was fleshing out a rising star whose anthems had made him fairly anonymous by design. BILLBOARD – ―Burning Up‖ feature Waka Flocka Flame‘s aesthetic — abetted here mostly by the producer Southside — is emphatically single-minded, as committed to form as, say, an old New York hardcore band or an arena-size Christian rock band or a 1990s progressive house producer. Like those sorts of acts Waka Flocka Flame extracts a tremendous amount of mileage out of rearranging extremely similar component parts…Waka Flocka Flame is more than an anomaly, that he‘s instead created room for the unhinged to stage a small comeback in hip-hop. NEW YORK TIMES - The Newest Rap: Intense, Authentic and Accidental‖ feature Indeed, there is something deceitfully playful in the rhythm and the delivery with which Flocka lays down his verses, something that almost seems easy in its repetitive simplicity. You can get an idea of it even in the cadence of his name—―Flocka!‖ is often yelled out in the mix as punctuation at the end of his lines. But it‘s the unrepentant rage, snarl, attitude, and sheer volume of his assault that renders his style nothing short of genius. V-MAN - ―Is Waka Flocka Flame Hip-Hop‘s Last Hope?‖ He says he‘s got no lyrics and he‘s not an MC.

    WAKA FLOCKA FLAME Ikone des modernen US -HipHop kehrt mit lang erwartetem neuem Album zurück! ›Flockaveli II‹ für Frühjahr 2018 angekündigt! Erste Headliner -Deutschlandtournee im März 2018 – Termine in Köln, München, Berlin und Hamburg Nach dem großen internationalen Erfolg seines Debuts ›Flockaveli‹ von 2010, das die Hood-Hymne ›Hard in da Paint‹ enthielt und dem 2012er Nachfolger ›Triple F Life: Friends, Fans and Family‹ machte der MC aus Atlanta nur noch mit Mixtapes und diversen Gastfeatures von sich reden. Mit seinem neuen Album ›Flockaveli II‹, das für Frühjahr 2018 angekündigt ist, kehrt Waka Flocka Flame nun zum Sound seines Debuts zurück, wie seine neue Single ›Trapping My Ass Off‹ eindrucksvoll unterstreicht. Passend zur Veröffentlichung geht er erstmals auf Headliner-Tournee durch vier deutsche Städte. Die Familie des als Juaquin James Malphurs in New York geborenen Rappers zog nach dem tragischen Tod seines jüngsten Bruders nach Atlanta, wo der Teenager, dem von einem Cousin der Muppets Spitznamen ›Waka‹ verpasst wurde, zunächst in falsche Kreise geriet. Glücklicherweise half hier einmal mehr die heilende Kraft der Musik als Ventil für Frustration und Ärger aus der Misere. Wakas Mutter Debra Antney war lange Zeit Managerin von Southern Rapper Gucci Mane, mit dem er sich anfreundete und als Mitglied von dessen 1017 Brick Squad neben ersten Features am Mikrofon auch schon bald ›Flocka Flame‹ getauft wurde, was seinen Künstlernamen Waka Flocka Flame komplettierte. Nach einem ersten Mixtape-Release erschien 2010 sein Studio-Debut ›Flockaveli‹, das ihm dank der Hitsingles ›O Let’s Do It‹, ›Hard in da paint‹ und ›No Hands‹ umgehend internationale Beachtung verschaffte.
