Video: Kenny Muney – “Papi’s Home“

Paper Route Empire’s South Memphis Representative Pays a Visit to His Plug in the First Glimpse at Muney Talk 2, His Upcoming Mixtape

Critical Praise:

“Kenny’s standout skill is his sense of timing and rhythm. The rapper can do nearly any style or flow out there.” – XXL

“Laced with familiar southern swagger and street tales, the new project solidifies Kenny has a viable name to keep an eye on as the new year creeps up.” – HotNewHipHop

“The South Memphis native has become a master at bodying the braggadocious current Memphis trap sound, while still finding endless ways to make his personal wit and charm stand out on every track.” – Dirty Glove Bastard

The Video:Rising to the top of Memphis’s rap scene with his tumbling flow and wry smile, Kenny Muney won’t stop until his bankroll crosses borders. The Paper Route Empire standout returns with the new single “Papi’s Home,” a new banger from his upcoming mixtape, Muney Talk 2. Rhyming atop haunting violins and thunderous 808s, Kenny dismisses his haters with half a bar (“Lame ass don’t even got a watch on”) before he flexes about his ways with women from all over the globe. In the video, Kenny heads south of the border to meet up with his plug, tour the ocean in a speedboat, and relax in his hotel’s hot tub. The sequel to his breakout 2019 mixtape Muney Talk and the follow-up to June’s Kenjamin Franklin, Muney Talk 2 arrives on November 14th via Paper Route Empire.

In 2019, Kenny Muney made his first impact on the Memphis scene with Muney Talk. The tape was home to his breakout hit, “Feeling Me” (7.3 million streams on Spotify), as well as his early collaborations with Young Dolph (“AF”) and Key Glock (“Muney Talk”). Kenny recaptures his young and hungry self with the upcoming sequel, applying lessons learned in the intervening six years to create something new and exciting.

Released earlier this year, Kenjamin Franklin reverberates with the sounds of Memphis: soulful vocal samples, bluesy guitar licks, and high-octane trap percussion. Home to singles like “Preach” and “On Fire,” the 8-track tape is a showcase for the artist’s wry personality, as he piles punchline after flex-heavy punchline through his satisfied smirk. Mixtape highlight “Tune Up” features a guest appearance from Kenny’s mentor, Young Dolph, allowing Kenny to rap alongside the late legend one more time.

Kenjamin Franklin and Muney Talk 2 continue the momentum from last year’s The Blue Seasons Super Deluxe, a 24-track behemoth that proved that Kenny Muney is fly in any weather. The South Memphis native shared several videos from the project, including “My $eason” and “4 Ever Or 4 The Moment,” both of which were filmed during Kenny’s vacation to Finland.

With Kenjamin Franklin out now, and Muney Talk 2 on the way, it is officially Kenny Muney season.

A native of South Memphis, Kenny Muney grew up idolizing rappers like Lil Wayne, Gucci Mane, and Boosie. He started rapping at age 15, developing his aggressive aesthetic and honing his deeply rhythmic flow. Kenny got his first brush with fame when he released “YTN Freestyle,” which racked up over 2.5 million YouTube views, made him a neighborhood hero, and earned airplay on local radio. He made noise in 2019 with Muney Talk, his first mixtape for PRE. In 2020, Kenny Muney connected with his mentor Young Dolph for “No Regrets,” a highlight track from Dolph’s Rich Slave (Deluxe) album. “I’m never satisfied,” says Kenny Muney. “It’s a gift and a curse. I’m always looking for the next step.”
