Learn how Fabolous became ‘Fabolous’ after his first freestyle with DJ Clue
Before we get the latest edition of Fabolous‘ now infamous #FridayNightFreestyles later this evening, the Brooklyn rapper sat down recently with MTV News’ Rob Markman to discuss the orgin of his name and remembers the first time he freestyled for DJ Clue.
During the short talk, Fab explained that he had a meeting with DJ Clue at the Hot 97 studios, where he thought he was just going to chop it up and spit a freestyle for him, but without warning Clue told him that he was going to put him straight on the air and freestyle live on the radio with Noreaga.
Fabolous further explains that he had no intentions of using “Fabolous” as his rap name, but after DJ Clue introduced him as that on the air, he just stuck with it and the rest is history.
