11.19.2018
Critical Praise:
“Dolph’s most prominent PRE signee [Key Glock] shows why he’s next up out of Memphis with tons of fun punchlines, cutting insults and a versatile delivery style that is in its own way as forceful as his label boss” – Noisey
“Key Glock is Memphis’s best new lyricist.” – The FADER
“Key Glock raps with an authoritative wisdom well beyond his age” – The FADER
“[Key Glock] will inevitably be on your radar in the months to come… he has a way with words that stick and resonate with his steadily growing fanbase.” – Karen Civil
“… unparalleled lyrical style and fierce approach” – ELEVATOR
The Announcement:
Running up his monthly Spotify listener count to over 1 million fans, Key Glock specializes in visceral, no-bullshit street music. Returning for his third mixtape and his second tape of 2018, Glock announces the Glockomamixtape. Teaming up with a squadron of A-List producers, including Drake’s favorite new beatmaker Tay Keith, Glock adds to his collection of sharply-written bangers. Sticking close to Glock’s favorite topics–smoking Backwoods blunts, cooking dope, counting cash–the new mixtape is a product of Glock’s fierce charisma, as he reaches levels of flexing comparable to his Paper Route EMPIRE boss Young Dolph. The follow-up to February’s swaggering Glock Bond, which has over 39.7 million combined streams on Spotify, Glockoma arrives on Glock Friday, November 23rd.
To build up a frenzy for his upcoming Thanksgiving offering, Key Glock unites with Tay Keith for “Yea!!,” his latest single. Previously collaborating on some of Glock’s best known songs, including “Russian Cream” (15.6 million streams on Spotify) and “Orville Redenbacher” (1.4 million views on YouTube), “Yea!!” is another banger, as Key Glock dials up his energy level, shouting about his new whip, his massive collection of diamond rings, and his burgeoning mogul status: “Bitch I’m bout it, bout it/You can call me Master Key/Who? Me? Bitch, I’m Master Key/But I’m still a P/Youngin’ off the leash.”

The Background:
A recognized figure in Memphis, Key Glock grew up idolizing the music of Gucci Mane and Lil Wayne. Glock created the unofficial crew Whole Lotta Errthang with his two best friends in high school, capturing the spirit of a popular Memphis saying. “Everybody knew we had a whole bunch of things going on,” remarked Glock. “we rolled with that, but we were living too fast.” Tragically, one of the members of his crew was gunned down at the age of 16. “Me and Ken [the other surviving member] ain’t even 21 yet, but we’ve seen and done so much. But you know: God does everything for a reason.” As Glock turned to music and began to develop his craft, his cousin-by-marriage Young Dolph began to take off. After facing an aggravated robbery charge and 90-day sentence in 2015, Key Glock was approached by Dolph and his business manager Daddyo to join Paper Route Empire. With PRE’s support behind him, Glock’s first single “On My Soul” has garnered 320,000 plays on WorldStarHipHop’s Youtube channel, and 235,000 plays on Soundcloud. With the release of Glock Season, Key Glock continues to smash through the southern rap scene. Stay tuned for more heat from Key Glock.
