Fabolous (urodzony 18 listopada 1977r w Brooklynie w Nowym Jorku; prawdziwe nazwisko John Jackson) to amerykański raper. Znany jest również jako „Loso”.
W wieku 18 lat podpisał kontrakt z wytwórnią płytową Desert Storm. Tam wydał kilka mixtape'ów. Dzięki współpracy Elektry z Desert Storm zasłynął także w mainstreamowym rapie dzięki funkcjom. 11 września 2001 roku ukazała się jego pierwsza płyta Ghetto Fabolous. Do końca roku album sprzedał się w ponad 500 000 egzemplarzy, pomimo ataków w Nowym Jorku i spadającej sprzedaży w branży muzycznej.
Sukcesem był także jego drugi album Street Dreams. W swoich tekstach posługuje się m.in. wydarzeniami osobistymi, takie jak morderstwo przyjaciela podczas wojny gangów (Can u hear me). W 2003 roku wystąpił w grze EA Sports NBA Live z piosenką It's in the Game. W Niemczech jest najbardziej znany z hitu numer 1 „Never Leave You” wspólnie z Lumidee i Busta Rhymes. Fabolous jest także założycielem marki modowej Rich Yung.
W 2006 roku Fabolous po raz pierwszy pojawił się jako aktor, grając mężczyznę z bronią w Strasznym Filmie 4. Album From Nothin' to Somethin' został wydany w czerwcu 2007 roku. Gościnnie występują na nim między innymi raperzy Swizz Beatz, Jay-Z, T-Pain, Akon i Joe Budden. From Nothing to Somethin' otrzymało złotą płytę. Kolejny album, Loso's Way, sprzedał się w 99 000 egzemplarzy w pierwszym tygodniu, osiągając pierwsze miejsce na liście Billboard 200.
W grudniu 2014 roku ukazał się szósty album studyjny Fabolous, The Young OG Project, z gościnnym udziałem French Montana, Chrisa Browna i Kevina Harta. Osiągnął numer 12 na liście Billboard 200 w pierwszym tygodniu.
17 października 2006 roku raper został zastrzelony na Manhattanie. Fabolous opuścił restaurację Diddy'ego, Justin's, z trzema towarzyszami. Gdy szli przez parking, grupa została zastrzelona przez nieznaną osobę. Fabolous został postrzelony w udo. W drodze do szpitala Fabolous i jego towarzysze zostali zatrzymani przez policję w Dodge Magnum. W samochodzie rapera znaleźli dwa niezarejestrowane pistolety, co doprowadziło do aresztowania grupy. Fabolous był leczony w szpitalu więziennym.
NYPD początkowo zakładała, że atak na załogę Fabolousa musiał być rabunkiem. Powodem takiego założenia był fakt, że kilka minut wcześniej z szyi zawodnika NBA Sebastiana Telfaira zerwano łańcuszek o wartości 64 000 dolarów. Zawodnik Boston Celtics po ataku przekazał policji rysopis sprawcy.
Jednak jakiś czas później, dzięki nagraniom z kamery monitoringu, ustalono, że sprawca, który wyrwał Telfairowi naszyjnik, był członkiem Fabolous Gang. Po napadzie dołączył do Fabolousa w restauracji Justina. Tymczasem Telfair zamiast policji wezwał własną „załogę” i czekał na sprawcę przed restauracją. Po pewnym czasie doszło do wymiany ognia. Jednak bandyta, który zastrzelił Fabolousa, nigdy nie został odnaleziony.
