Kay Flock Returns With Lil Tjay On "Fed Up"

KAY FLOCK RETURNS WITH LIL TJAY ON “FED UP”

FIRST NEW MUSIC IN TWO YEARS

LISTEN HERE

“IS YA READY” “PSA” AND “BEING HONEST” “SHAKE IT” ARE RIAA CERTIFIED GOLD 

Pioneering Bronx drill star Kay Flock ends the drought with “Fed Up” featuring Lil Tjay. Listen HERE. The moody, booming track is the rapper’s first official release since his December 2022 deluxe project, The D.O.A. Tape [Care Package].

The new song is a full-circle moment for Kay Flock, whose first big record was as a guest on Lil Tjay’s iconic 2021 hit “Not in the Mood,” also featuring Brooklyn drill luminary Fivio Foreign. That cut has since been RIAA-certified Gold®, but Kay Flock has racked up his own considerable victories, with four additional Gold records as lead artist: “Is Ya Ready,” “PSA,” and “Being Honest” — all from his original 2021 The D.O.A. Tape — as well as “Shake It” featuring Cardi B, Dougie B, and Bory300, which appeared on the [Care Package] installment and climbed to #51 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Produced by the GRAMMY-nominated Kenoe (NBA YoungBoy, Lil Wayne, Jay-Z), “Fed Up” kicks off with deep bass, sharp snares, and pensive piano. As the bells and 808s hit, we hear Kay Flock’s menacing growl issuing warnings while taking stock of his wins: “I was [booming] for days, now I’m getting paid for [buckin’] my s*** on a beat.” Lil Tjay hits the beat running, his words catching melody as he lets us know where he stands:  “with the heart of a lion, when they see me on top they be sighin’.Kay Flock leaves us with a final thought: “Disrespect the gods, you gon’ meet the gods.”

For listeners eager for more, The D.O.A. Tape [Care Package] stands as an impressive monument to Kay Flock’s fast rise and innovative approach. The original The D.O.A. Tape made The New York Times’ esteemed best albums of 2022 list, and the 18-track expansion finds him in all his various modes of confident yet introspective lyricism, tracing his growth from the aforementioned breakout songs on through buzzworthy additions like “Outta Luck” featuring a then-rising BIG30. The project includes standout features from Gucci Mane, Fivio Foreign, G Herbo, Set Da Trend, B-Lovee, TG Crippy, and more. Production credits include Elias Beats, Maniac, Project Kidz, Krischon, Yung Lan, and A Lau. More recently Kay Flock received a coveted cosign from drill star Set Da Trend

By the age of 19, Kay Flock had already helped to transform drill music in New York and beyond, earning critical acclaim from publications including The New York Times, Pitchfork, VULTURE, STEREOGUM, Rolling Stone, Billboard and more. Two years on, with new music on the horizon, only time will tell how Kay Flock will shift the culture yet again.
