(Republic) Capping off a momentous year, Key Glock closes out an unforgettable 2025 with a new single and music video entitled "A+" available now via Paper Route Empire/Republic Records.
Showcasing unparalleled versatility, the powerhouse rapper leans into another side of his artistry. This time around, he flexes his innate knack for magnetically catchy melodies. Speaking directly to his fanbase of ladies, flirty rhymes glide across a sparse soundscape laced with airy synths and hypnotic hi-hats. The sultry trap-banger culminates on a chantable chorus as he teases, "This b**** looks good A-plus." Helmed by director Hidji World, the visual follows Key Glock through a strip club. Lusty choreography matches the rhythm of the beat and his bars. It evokes the spirit of the song.
