At just 18-years-old, Kay Flock brims with energy and is hungry to be the best he can be. Hailing from New York City, the young, explosive drill rapper’s talent is instantly heard on tracks like “Not In The Mood” with fellow New York native Lil Tjay.
Witnessing his contributions to NYC’s revitalized drill wave, “Not in the Mood” earned Flock his first Billboard Top 100 nod, reaffirming that his once surreal aspirations of a music career are now in the palm of his hand.
Experiencing a stratospheric ascension in 2021 — accumulating nearly 3 million Spotify monthly listeners — Kay Flock is at his best slurring honest, street-centric bars with unmatched vitality and finesse. On tracks like “Is Ya Ready,” “Brotherly Love” and “Being Honest,” Kay’s attention to detail is miles ahead of his time — regardless of his age.
