Without knowing where you live and why you want a fast growing tree, it's hard to say. Fast growers are also short lived. Silver maple grow fairly quickly but have only @ 25 year lifespan. Perhaps a tall shrub would be better?
Hybrid Poplar is a very fast growing tree. I had two planted in my backyard. However, they are in the Cottonwood family and give off hundreds of fluffy things that looked like cotton balls and flew all over my property. Needless to say, I had them removed and replaced with a Red Sunset Maple, a truly lovely tree in the fall when the leaves change color.
