Fukkit

Alex Pires (b. January 29, 1997), better known by his stage name Fukkit, is an Floridian rapper and sometimes producer based in Miami. He initially starting putting out music in 2014, under the collective TEAM A K A T S U K I, which also included artists like drip-133, known for his work with Lil Peep, and SolomonDaGod, among others. The early cuts in his discography from this time either included his collective mates, like “Gold Soul Music" with SolomonDaGod and Velvet Cape (Known as Yawdin at the time) and “checks” with Lil Shark, or songs he made with his longtime friends and collaborators Brando+ and Sabino, like “NIGHT” by Brando+, featuring Fukkit & Sabino. A lot of this early material was eventually lost due to deletion off of his Soundcloud page. In 2015, Fukkit dropped his first project, Miami Hotboy, a six-track EP which is sometimes mistaken to only be three tracks. He also appeared on other projects, such as Ramirez‘ Lust & Sensations and Blood Diamonds mixtapes. A few days prior to the release of Miami Hotboy, XXXTENTACION announced through a Tweet that Fukkit had joined his collective, Members Only. It is unknown when he had left TEAM A K A T S U K I or if it had disbanded prior to this (the collective is known to be defunct). Fukkit would later contribut two songs to the second collaborative mixtape by Members Only, Members Only, Vol. 2, “NASCAR” and “Polo Man”, which got him exposure to a larger audience, gaining decent popularity. Around that time, he also released the song that would soon enough be his biggest hit, “30”. Fukkit moved into 2016, still releasing more music, but this time as a part of Members Only. He played a couple live shows in the Miami area with other Members Only members, and appeared on Flyboy Tarantino’s mixtape NIGHTMARE ON THE STRIP with the 2015 cut “GLOCKOMA”. However, on March 7, 2016, Fukkit announced he was parting ways with the collective. While it initially seemed to come off as if he left on good terms, X ended up coming at Fukkit on Twitter the same day, claiming Fukkit only joined Members Only to steal his ideas and that he was “clout chasing” off his name. This led Fukkit and X to have hold animosity toward one another, with Fukkit even dissing X on the songs “FACE IN THE SOIL” and “NATURAL SELECTION”, both with Kamiyada+. After going solo, Fukkit’s 2015 track “30” blew up in popularity through a bass-boosted version of the song that was used as the punchline in several meme videos on platforms like Vine). It became the biggest song of his entire career, netting him mainstream exposure and millions of views. After a couple months of being solo, Fukkit joined Kamiyada+ and The Virus & Antidote’s relatively new collective, Midnight Society. Toward the end of 2016, Fukkit starting working on his debut mixtape, Is This Beauty?, releasing the first single, “THE GAME IS OVER”, on December 17, 2016. In 2017, Fukkit worked on Is This Beauty? while intermittenly releasing single tracks as well; the track “1Punch” stands out as being another song that gained a lot of attention from a more mainstream audience. On June 18, 2017, Is This Beauty? was released, containing a blend of trap, screamo, and heavy, distorted beats spanning 17 tracks over a 31-minute runtime. While working on the mixtape, Fukkit linked up with producer H E A L, who produced tracks on the project like the aforementioned “FACE IN THE SOIL”, and loosies such as “La Cabra Vive (The Goat Lives)” and “BASH HIS F***ING BRAINS IN WIT A MALLET, MY DUDE”. Toward the later end of the year, Fukkit also released a compilation record, Here Ya Go, which served to bring some of the singles he had put out onto streaming services. Going into 2018, Fukkit continued to work on his music with no interference for the most part. However, in April of that year, H E A L issued false takedowns on all the songs he had produced on Fukkit’s Soundcloud because Fukkit had “embarrassed” CROWLIFE, a collective H E A L was apart of before it disbanded. Moving on from his work with H E A L after forming a new enemy, Fukkit announced a collaborative EP with a producer apart of Midnight Society: The Wild Dutchman. Scratch Paper was released on July 7, 2018, to an explosion of popularity, focused around the final track on the project, “Flashbang”. “Flashbang” became Fukkit’s second most popular song, gaining millions of views and widespread attention from people who had never even heard of him before. In 2019, Fukkit even worked with a startup brand, Plague Blvd., to create a T-shirt to commemorate the song. For the rest of the year, he continued to release singles, with a playlist of emotional tracks being released and featuring on producer Y$57’s mixtape, UNHAPPY HOLIDAYS. Early into 2019, Fukkit began on two projects: a collaborative EP with producer MKULTRA, called The Hypnosis Study, and his second mixtape. He released two singles of The Hypnosis Study in January, and teased his upcoming mixtape with the track “Snake, Are You Okay?!”. On February 4, the day before The Hypnosis Project was released, Fukkit announced he was parting ways with Midnight Society due to “constructive and personal differences”. While it was generally believed that he was still on good terms with some members, there were others that weren’t as overt with their friendship, like co-founder Kamiyada+, who stated that Fukkit “said some fuckshit about [his] people”. Fukkit went on to release his second mixtape, Smithy, on April 20, 2019. Roughly two months after the release of Smithy and the drop of another moderately popular single, “Deadpool”, Fukkit announced that his third mixtape, entitled Cerberus, was in the works. Cerberus was released on October 25, and featured artists like Kamiyada+, proving to fans that they were still on good terms, and Kay P, and producers such as Y$57, Dutchman, and Miklo, who had previously on worked with him once before. It was also the first project to contain songs that were co-produced by Fukkit himself.
