“If Dolph is the self-proclaimed King of Memphis, then Key Glock is somewhere between Merlin and Rasputin, a mysterious man of influence who keeps a low profile but pulls more strings than you’d think.” – Pitchfork
“If somebody wants to know what current day Memphis rap sounds like, show them Key Glock. The 21-year-old has uncontrollable energy, can tell a funny story, and says it all over beats that pay homage to the city’s history while still incorporating a modern bounce.” – Pitchfork
“Rags-to-riches stories are a constant in rap, but Glock’s enthusiasm is infectious. Coupled with hard-hitting beats—from the slinky guitars and 808s of opener “1997” to the subwoofer-crushing drums of lead single “Mr. Glock”—Yellow Tape is enough reason to celebrate making it to the finish line on any given day. May the congregation say amen.” – Complex
“An intricate and sneering rapper, Glock has pretty much every skill a rap fan praises in a respected rapper: believability, charisma and pure lyrical talent.” – XXL
“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
Key Glock is the new face of Memphis rap. Signed to Young Dolph’s Paper Route EMPIRE, the 24-year-old rapper stays true to his roots with an emphatic midtempo flow and trunk-rattling trap beats.
Glock burst onto the scene with his Paper Route debut Glock Season in 2017, from which the single “On My Soul” has nearly 8 million views on YouTube. Since then, he has continued his meteoric rise with 4 solo mixtapes as well as Dum and Dummer, a collaborative effort with Young Dolph. 2018 saw Glock join forces with fellow Memphian and superstar producer Tay Keith to craft a pair of hits in “Russian Cream” and “Yea!!” The former has garnered over 86 million Spotify streams to date.
2020’s Yellow Tape took him to a new level, peaking at #8 on the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop charts and #14 on the Billboard 200. March 2021’s Dum & Dummer 2 with Young Dolph debuted at #8 on the Billboard 200 and generated nearly 36k sales equivalent units across platforms and scored the fifth-biggest streaming debut on Spotify during its first week of release. October 2021’s Yellow Tape 2 debuted at #7 on the Billboard 200 and #1 on the Independents Charts. Currently boasting over 7 million monthly listeners on Spotify, Key Glock is breaking into the mainstream as we speak.
