Fashawn, whose debut Boy Meets World was one of Complex's best albums of 2009, will kick in the door at Seattle's Nectar Lounge Wednesday. Born to a drug-addicted mother and incarcerated father, Fashawn mines his unlucky upbringing for material, but rather than coming across as world-weary and cynical, Fashawn just sounds hungry. He had to fight for his chance, and he seems to not know how to stop. With Manny Pacquiao-stye punchlines, Fashawn won't let you forget his name. Catch him before he blows up big.
Fashawn
