Song: Young Dolph – “Death Row” (Prod. by Bandplay)
The Paper Route EMPIRE CEO Pays Tribute to Dre, Pac, Snoop, and Suge in His New Song From Upcoming Album Rich Slave
The Song:
The CEO of Paper Route EMPIRE, one of modern rap’s most vital independent labels, Young Dolph pays tribute to rap’s most notorious indie label on “Death Row,” his new single. Riding a beat from PRE-signed producer Bandplay, Dolph talks about the spoils of his success, grateful that the risks he took to reach the top paid off, and eager to spread his wealth among his community: “My barber get a hunda every time I get a new fade.” “Death Row” is the latest single from Rich Slave, Dolph’s next album, coming August 14th via Paper Route EMPIRE.
On explaining the title Rich Slave, Dolph explains, “It’s the reality of being Black in this country. You can have money, and you can be a benefactor and a leader in your community, but all people see is Black skin. All the bullsh*t I heard about as a kid, we still face in today’s time. Over the years, they have given us a little bit of freedom but it’s only a temporary pacifier. Hopefully this album makes people understand that even though guys like me are doing well, we’re still affected by racism and inequality. It’s 2020, but the same stuff is still going on.” – Young Dolph
Along with the album, Young Dolph announces the “Rich Slave Lamborghini Contest.” Launching today and lasting through the month of August, the “Rich Slave Lamborghini Contest” will reward one lucky fan with a custom-wrapped, blue-and-orange-striped Lamborghini ($412k value), personally delivered by Young Dolph himself. The Lamborghini is a 2018 Aventador S Roadster, and is the same vehicle depicted on the cover of the Rich Slave album. The contest ends at 11:59pm ET on August 20th and Dolph will officially announce the randomly-selected winner on September 4th.
Fans can enter the contest by pre-ordering Rich Slave or purchasing merch from Young Dolph’s online store. (Purchase of merch includes album download.) Young Dolph will offer four brand new items of merchandise especially for the occasion: three t-shirt designs and a visor. Visit Dolph’s official website for a full list of the contest’s rules and requirements.
Praised by GQ and others for his topical “Sunshine” single (“Young Dolph Is Leading Rap Through the Pandemic” – GQ), Young Dolph recently earned a spot on Billboard’s list of Indie Power Players for 2020.
