Exclusive: Memphis Kid Chronicles: Key Glock on Street Roots & Studio Flex

Exclusive: Memphis Kid Chronicles: Key Glock on Street Roots & Studio Flex

Exclusive: Memphis Kid Chronicles: Key Glock on Street Roots & Studio Flex

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter
Rising from Memphis streets and turned musical prominence, Key Glock joined Ferrari Simmons and BT on The Baller Alert Show, broadcasting live from Atlanta. The vibe? Comfortable, real, and revealing.
Streets Made Him
Glock says he started hustling early—“jumped off the porch at 14”—because the Memphis environment demanded it. No glorification, just survival. He jokes he’s not infatuated with sticks—instead, he was forced into that life. His upbringing shaped his music’s raw, aggressive tone heard on tracks like “Blue Devil” and “The Grinch.”
Mom’s Return Shaped His Path
His mother served seven years across state and federal prisons, only returning during his senior year of high school. That reunion sparked his focus: schooling and music started to matter. She prayed for him and pushed him to graduate—baseline expectations for someone looking to shift from street life toward something more.
Fatherhood & Rising Power
Becoming a dad changed Glock’s lens profoundly. “Words can’t even explain” the shift in perspective. He’s a strict yet affectionate father who learned discipline growing up. But he spoils his daughter, and that balance comes from a childhood shaped by hardship and resilience.
Atlanta Move & Career Shift
Advice from Young Dolph convinced him to leave Memphis. He says, “I thought about it…I really just had to think for myself,” but once the first tape dropped, he moved quickly—and set the stage for bigger opportunities. Verbal agreements with Dolph came before ink hit the paper, and road life revealed his journey was set.
McLaren Flex & Music Comes First
His first rap check funded a McLaren—but the thrill faded. Still, he holds on to it as reminder of what’s possible. Although he admits buying flashy jewelry, Glock emphasizes authenticity: no lab-grown gems, only real diamonds that hold real value.
Social Media: Necessary Evil
He hates social media, he says—but understands it’s necessary for marketing. He keeps it professional, avoiding personal oversharing. “I’m grandfathered in,” he reflects—unlike younger rappers forced to share every meal and romance.
Mental Health & Faith
Glock doesn’t see a therapist—long-term spiritual faith in God replaces any need for professional help. He respects therapy, suggesting others go, but he “talk[s] to Him all day.” When stress hits, he smokes and vibes out: “I just charge it to the game.”
Fan Encounters Gone Wrong
He shared a bizarre stalker story: a woman created fake paternity claims, even contacting child support services. The drama resolved in Memphis courts—but Glock was stunned. His message? Fame has unwanted consequences, and he handles it by staying low-key and legal.
Global Inspirations
Surprisingly, Tokyo tops his bucket list. He admires the culture, lifestyle, and city cleanliness—it reminded him music fame can let him touch the world.
Looking Ahead
He plans to expand his album Glock with more singles—“let it rain”—and dreams of a sprawling home, happy family, and goats grazing in the yard. He’s calm, deliberate, and living to survive and thrive—but always breathing.
