Fisz (born Bartosz Waglewski March 19, 1978) is a Polish rap artist.
The musical style of Fisz is unconventional. At the very beginning of his career he started out as a hip hop artist, but went experimental soon after releasing Tworzywo Sztuczne – Wielki Ciężki Słoń in 2004. Fisz and his brother and producer Emade seek inspiration in black music giving soul, funk and jazz touch to their projects. His lyrics are often based on wordplay.
