Zeddy Will opened up about the unexpected ways major celebrities have shown him love in a candid new episode of BagFuel with hosts ES$O and HYNAKEN. While the rapper admits he hasn’t had a flood of calls from big stars yet, he highlighted some memorable shoutouts. “PartyNextDoor… he fuck with me for real too. Like my comedy and the music side,” Zeddy said, describing the support he’s received from established artists.
Celebrity endorsements also came in other forms. Kim Kardashian and her daughter North helped elevate Zeddy’s music when they danced to his track Freak You. “That was big for me… that changed a lot,” he explained, noting how the moment propelled media coverage and gave him significant exposure early in his career.
Zeddy Will is keeping momentum going with live performances, including a six-city HBCU tour, starting at Howard University. He also hinted at a potential tour later this year with a special guest, underscoring his commitment to connecting directly with fans through live shows.
Despite rising success, Zeddy remains independent. “I’m still rocking out independent, if the opportunity is there and it makes sense, I feel like me and my team will do it,” he said when discussing potential label deals. He emphasized timing as key in navigating the industry, wanting to secure the work and recognition he’s earned before making any major decisions.
Collaboration continues to be central to Zeddy’s strategy. From viral dance tracks to notable features, he’s been making a mark. His feature with Stur Young and The Miz, which sampled Fergie and included her in the video, was a standout moment. He also praised French Montana for his fast, seamless collaboration on another track.
A major part of Zeddy Will’s influence comes from social media, where his creativity sparks viral trends. Reflecting on his approach to content, he explained, “When I put a song out on like TikTok or Instagram… whatever the song makes me feel like doing, I just do.” Early viral moves, like the dance created by BJ in Cash Crib, were embraced and amplified by Zeddy, sparking widespread participation from fans and peers alike.
Looking ahead, Zeddy Will is confident about the future. “I’m just being me and I ain’t never going to stop… this shit going to go on for a long time,” he said. With a mix of independent hustle, viral influence, and celebrity support, Zeddy Will is steadily carving out his space in the music world, and showing no signs of slowing down.
