In 2009, Fababy met rapper Despo Rutti, and appeared with him on a freestyle video called "La Saint-Valentin Featuring La Batte de Base Ball", posted on 14 February 2010, where he assumed the moniker F.A.B. The video was viewed over 30,000 times. He then appeared with Rutti on the radio station Planète Rap, to help promote Rutti's album, Conviction Suicidaire.
