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

The Video:

With his flex heavy triplets and unshakeable flow, Kenny Muney reps Paper Route Empire to the fullest. Heading to church on Easter as he generates plenty of material for his next confession, Kenny shares the video for “Muney Prayer,” Opening with a modified version of “Our Father,” “Muney Prayer” is a mission statement for Kenny, who invokes a higher power to help him prove his god-given gift for running up bankrolls: “I’m busy, I’m working, I got somethin’ to do/Stop callin’ my phone asking me whxat I’m doin’, you know what I’m doin’, I’m chasin’ that loot.” In the video, Muney plays a benefactor to Memphis’s flyest church, as he takes money from the collection plate to make it rain. “Muney Prayer” is the opening trrack from Blue Muney, his brand new mixtape, and follows recent videos for Big Muney Sh*t” and the Hitkidd-produced “In A Rush.”

Spanning 11 tracks, Blue Muney finds Kenny locking into trunk-rattling instrumentals with surgical precision, packing more flexes into his rapidfire triplets than one can count. Aided by state-of-the-art production, much of it courtesy of PRE’s own Bandplay, Kenny refines his sound, crafting a tape equally suited to blasting out the whip or intense headphone listening. The South Memphis heavy-hitter goes toe-to-toe with fellow PRE rhymer Key Glock on the ice-cold “Antartica,” and recruits Atlanta’s Money Man for “In My Bag.” Featuring additional appearances from Ceo Jizzle and KATO2X, Blue Muney is available everywhere via Paper Route Empire.

Blue Muney is the follow-up to Time Is Muney, an accomplished 2022 mixtape by the young rapper. Featuring appearances from Key Glock, Dreezy, and Big Moochie Grape, Time Is Muney is home to “Role Model,” Kenny’s tribute to his mentor Young Dolph. The PRE capo is currently on tour with Key Glock on “The Glockoma Tour,” which wraps up later this month.

With Blue Muney, Kenny Muney shows that he has the talent and determination to succeed in the Empire-building business. Stay tuned for more from Kenny Muney and Paper Route Empire.

Background:

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.”
