Kay Flock: 50-Year Sentence Sought for Gang-Led Drill Music
Update: 2025-12-06
Description
Federal prosecutors seek a fifty-year prison sentence for Bronx rapper Kay Flock, accused of transforming drill music into a tool for gang influence and violence. Convicted of racketeering conspiracy, assault, and firing a gun during a violent crime, prosecutors argue his actions turned him into a serious threat to public safety. They claim his shift from a teenage rapper to a gang boss led to a campaign of violence, resulting in dozens of people being shot, injured, or killed. Prosecutors maintain that much of this violence was fueled by his influence, citing his debut video and lyrics as recruitment tools. Despite signing with Capitol Records and achieving mainstream success, prosecutors argue his fame only glorified deadly gang violence. The governments recommendation for a fifty-year sentence aligns with the Probation Offices calculation, and Judge Lewis J. Liman is expected to issue a final sentence later this month.
