Kenny Muney Lives Like a Rock Star in “Top” Video
Locking into instrumentals with unshakeable focus, Kenny Muney mesmerizes with his triplet flow. Reflecting on his rise from the bottom to the pinnacle of his city’s rap scene, the Memphis native shares “Top,” a new music video. Complete with subsonic 808s and wailing electric guitars, “Top” is a slow-burning slapper, filled with fast-talking flexes and effortlessly tongue-twisting wordplay. In the video, directed by 35Miles, a CELINE-wearing Kenny performs with a DJ and an electric guitar player, as he overlooks the canyon with a mic and a rack in his hands. “Top” is the latest music video from Blue Muney, Kenny’s new mixtape, following the irreverent video for intro track “Muney Prayer.”
Spanning 11 tracks, Blue Muney finds Kenny locking into trunk-rattling instrumentals with surgical precision, packing more flexes into his rapidfire triplets than one can count. Aided by state-of-the-art production, much of it courtesy of PRE’s own Bandplay, Kenny refines his sound, crafting a tape equally suited to blasting out the whip or intense headphone listening. The South Memphis heavy-hitter goes toe-to-toe with fellow PRE rhymer Key Glock on the ice-cold “Antartica,” and recruits Atlanta’s Money Man for “In My Bag.” Featuring additional appearances from Ceo Jizzle and KATO2X, and boasting recent singles like “Big Muney Sh*t” and the Hitkidd-produced “In A Rush,” Blue Muney is available everywhere via Paper Route Empire.
Blue Muney is the follow-up to Time Is Muney, an accomplished 2022 mixtape by the young rapper. Featuring appearances from Key Glock, Dreezy, and Big Moochie Grape, Time Is Muney is home to “Role Model,” Kenny’s tribute to his mentor Young Dolph. The PRE capo is currently on tour with Key Glock on “The Glockoma Tour,” which wraps up later this month.
With Blue Muney, Kenny Muney shows that he has the talent and determination to succeed in the Empire-building business. Stay tuned for more from Kenny Muney and Paper Route Empire.

Black Skywalker, the rising artist with an undeniable buzz, drops his debut EP, I Need Therapy.
The new project promises to usher in the new era of hip-hop. “Rap music is in a dark place and I came to bring the light,” said Skywalker. “The type of music I make is best described as Outer Space Jedi-level rap shit.”
Black Skywalker and Chris Rosa produced the debut EP featuring the focus track “Pills and Alcohol”. The single describes a man battling depression and anxiety with prescription medicine and champagne.
The EP includes hard-hitting 808s, crackling snares, and spacey synths. “We in Love” is a melodic record with a bouncy bass and drums. However, the lyrics depict a flawed relationship due to social media and porn addiction.
Black Skywalker’s ‘Pain of Letting Go’ has huge production and raw guitar. The lyrics express deep emotion and heartbreak, making the EP’s inspiration very clear.
“Therapy” is a song that touches on the struggles of life and the importance of seeking help. The production is interesting, with dark verses and uplifting hooks. The second verse highlights the benefits of opening up to a therapist and encourages others to do the same.
“Slide with Me” is a standout track from the EP with great production and an infectious hook. It narrates the story of falling in love with the woman of your dreams and has an upbeat vibe that sets it apart from the rest of the EP.
EP delivers a relatable conversation, amazing production, and intentional songwriting. Black Skywalker calls it outer space Jedi-level rap music.
