The Year of Zoowap  - The Grammy committee made a blasphemous decision when they didn’t nominate Willie Maxwell, better known as Fetty Wap, in the Best New Artist category. 2015 has been a tremendous year for Fetty, who broke records and dominated the radio. It's a little hard to describe this year in music without bringing up "Trap Queen." But even though Fetty's first single is his biggest single to date, he proved to the world that he will not let one song define him or his ability to stay on top of the music game despite being the rookie of 2015. Here are 10 reasons why 2015 was really the year of #1738. —Janice Llamoca(Photo: Ethan Miller/Getty Images for iHeartMedia)
