Fedi’s crew includes 24KGoldn (he executive produced 24KGoldn’s new album, “El Dorado,” and co-wrote/co-produced nearly every song on it), fellow UMPG writer Blake Slatkin (with whom he worked on both “Mood” and “Without You”), and producer Keegan Bach (aka K-Beazy). “They tried at the beginning, and I love my publisher, but I was, like, ‘No, I’ll just work with my friends, thank you.’”įortunately for all parties involved, that strategy has worked out well. That’s not to say that Fedi’s publisher, Universal Music Publishing Group (UMPG), hasn’t tried to get him into writing sessions, but he was adamant that his was a better way forward as a songwriter from the start.
“If you don’t vibe together as a human, even if both of you are incredible musicians, you just can’t make good music.” “I don’t understand how you can make music with someone that isn’t your friend, or someone random,” he says via Zoom from New York, where he recently had some business to attend to. In fact, Fedi is against the very idea of strangers teaming in a studio to write for a top-tier star. Unlike many new songwriters, Fedi didn’t take a traditional path to success, which usually involves slogging through hundreds of songwriting sessions in order to catch a lucky break and slide into the upper echelons of the charts after landing a big cut with a known artist. 1 song in America, Lil Nas X’s “Montero (Call Me By Your Name).”

The Israel-born, Los Angeles-based guitarist, producer and songwriter scored a trio of smashes late in 2020 and into 2021, including co-writing/co-producing 24kGoldn and Iann Dior’s massive “Mood” (which is on the cusp of passing a billion streams on Spotify this month), co-writing and co-producing The Kid LAROI’s “Without You” (which just cracked the top 10 this week on both alternative and pop radio charts, per Mediabase), and co-writing and co-producing last week’s No. But for 21-year-old Fedi, who just started making big waves in the music industry last year, he’s only at the beginning of his career.
