Bartosz Waglewski (Fisz) born March 19, 1978 in Warszawa,Poland is an award winning Polish rap artist. He is the son of musician Wojciech Waglewski and older brother of Emade (Piotr Waglewski). He studied at Europejska Akademia Sztuk (EAS).
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 producer Emade seek inspiration in black music giving soul, funk and jazz touch to their projects. His lyrics are often based on wordplay.
In 2008, he founded a rock band Kim Nowak together with his brother Emade and Michał Sobolewski. The band released two studio albums, Kim Nowak (2010) and Wilk (2012).
Internationally he gave concerts on stages of London, Berlin, Bordeaux, Calvi, Dijon, Marseille, Vienna, Budapest, Prague, Paris and Saint Vallier.
Fisz has been nominated to Fryderyk Award eight times.
In 2000 he received two nominations in the categories New Face of Fonography (debiut roku) and Album of the Year - Hip-Hop/Rap (Album Roku Rap/Hip hop) "Polepione dźwięki". A year later, in 2001, he received another nomination in the same category for "Na wylot". In 2003 Fisz, together with Emade, was nominated as Tworzywo Sztuczne in the category Club Album of the Year for "F3". They were also nominated for the Alternative Album of The Year (Album Roku Muzyka Alternatywna) the following year ("Wielki Ciężki Słoń"). In 2005 "Fru!" was nominated in the same category. 2006 brought two more nominations for the Hip hop/R&B Album of The Year ("Piątek 13-nastego") and the Group of the Year (together with Emade).
