KAY FLOCK – THE D.O.A. TAPE RELEASED

NEW YORK DRILL PHENOMENON KAY FLOCK DROPS THE D.O.A. TAPE

INCLUDES NEW “BEING HONEST” REMIX FEAT. G HERBO 

COMING OFF COLLABORATING WITH LIL TJAY & FIVIO FOREIGN ON “NOT IN THE MOOD”

Today, buzzing New York drill rapper Kay Flock unveils his debut project The D.O.A. Tape.

The eight-track collection kicks the door open with the intense and infectious “Is Ya Ready” where his screams cut through thick bass and anxious production. On “Opp Spotter,” his gruff flows cut down adversaries as an ominous beat rattles. Then, there’s “Speed Racing” where he leans into pummeling verses with a gruff delivery before an unnervingly catchy hook.

He recently dropped the music video for “Being Honest (Remix)” [feat. G Herbo]. The clip captures his intense delivery onscreen as he turns up next to multiplatinum Chicago drill star G Herbo.

He made headlines with his appearance during Meek Mill’s Madison Square Garden show in New York along with his surprise Rolling Loud NY performance. Meanwhile, he flexed with a knockout feature on Lil Tjay’s “Not In The Mood” alongside Fivio Foreign.

He paved the way for The D.O.A. Tape with a trio of bangers: “TCardi” [feat. Dougie B, Lil Skrap 1090 & Justo B], “Brotherly Love” [feat. Dougie B & B-Lovee], and, most recently, “Being Honest.” Beyond piling up millions of streams, he also attracted critical acclaim. Pitchfork contended Flock “revitalized New York Drill.”

The D.O.A. Tape is just the beginning for Kay Flock.

About Kay Flock

Kay Flock’s vision of drill music feels raw and free-spirited—an unburdened, electrifying take on his city’s most exciting new sound. The New York rapper has spent the last couple years making tracks that bring some of the movement’s strongest future stars together while amplifying his own, pitching drill as collaborative, energetic, and most of all, alive. His raps, captured in street smashes like “Brotherly Love,” featuring fellow Bronx MCs B-Lovee and Dougie B, demonstrate the thrill of the ecstatic genre. Every bar is spit with the pedal pressed all the way to the floor. In ways, his rise is similar to other New York drill artists, climbing from humble beginnings to the verge of the mainstream, but Kay Flock hails from the Bronx, a neighborhood that hasn’t so far produced the genre’s stars. He grew up in a rugged environment he describes as “dangerous” and, as a teenager, found escape in Brooklyn drill as well as the music of Chicago rappers like King Von. In the Bronx, Flock made lifelong friends in B-Lovee and Dougie B who, in 2020, introduced him to recording. Almost immediately, you could recognize Flock’s unmistakable talent—and his city did. Early singles like “Opp Shottas” with B-Lovee have earned millions of video views in less than a year. Now, Flock has emerged as the Bronx’s and arguably New York City’s hottest new rapper. Even as Flock’s star rises, and the co-signs roll in from Pitchfork, No Jumper, and artists from G Herbo, Lil Tjay—he doesn’t plan to switch up. He’s staying true to himself.
