Key Glock Spits a (Literally) Fire Banger in ‘Off the Porch’ Video
Key Glock comes in hot for the new year with the new single “Off the Porch” and its accompanying music video.

He flexes his chains, including one featuring Homer Simpson that blinks after he lets him hit his blunt, and compares his drip to that of Lil Uzi Vert. “Diamonds dancing on me like Uzi, choppa keep Bruce Lee, pullin’ up too deep,” he raps in the first verse. He released two back-to-back mixtapes last year, Yellow Tape in January and Son of a Gun in May via Paper Route Empire. His 2019 joint album with mentor Young Do...
