Even behind bars, Kay Flock hasn\u2019t forgotten the Bronx. In an exclusive HOT97<\/a> interview, the rapper opened up about organizing a Thanksgiving turkey drive for families in need, while his mother, Momma Flock, has been the bridge between his vision and the community he grew up in.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis week is all about giving back and blessings,\u201d Kay Flock said. \u201cThanksgiving is coming, and I want to give back to my community and help out as much as I can.\u201d Momma Flock smiled as she recalled the conversation: \u201cHe wants to make sure the shelters always have what they need. He\u2019s seen the struggles, and he remembers what it\u2019s like to need help.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAll of the blessings I\u2019ve been receiving, it\u2019s only right to give it back to those who need it most,\u201d Kay added. \u201cI know a lot of families out there who are struggling, and I know the struggle myself, so I want to do everything in my power to give back. As long as I can, I\u2019ll always look out for my community.\u201d<\/p>\n

Even from prison, he is hands-on. He coordinates the event through phone calls, social media, and the support of his family. \u201cI have to give thanks to my mother and my family\u2014they\u2019ve always supported me tremendously,\u201d Kay said. \u201cThey helped me arrange this event. I feel that events like this help bring everyone together.\u201d Momma Flock adds, \u201cHe\u2019s always been that way\u2014helping people carry groceries, moving things, anything someone needed. Even neighbors he didn\u2019t know. One neighbor said, \u2018Oh my god, your son is such a blessing. You don\u2019t even know him, and he\u2019s helping me.\u2019 That\u2019s who he is.\u201d<\/p>\n

For Kay, music and community work are inseparable. \u201cHe keeps moving forward and wants to help others do the same. The better you do, the better you get. The worse you do, the worse you get,\u201d Momma Flock explained. Collaborations with artists like Cardi B have inspired him further. \u201cShe\u2019s amazing, so friendly, so down to earth. Her working with my son was incredible. He\u2019s inspired by seeing people from our neighborhood give back and lift others.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kay Flock Eyes Bronx Legacy, Promises Support and Hope for Youth<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, Kay envisions a lasting impact on the Bronx. \u201cHe\u2019s always talking about ways to help young kids, using his experiences to make a change,\u201d Momma Flock said. \u201cOnce he\u2019s out, he wants to own a space for youth, be there every day, talk to them, make sure they know they have support.\u201d Kay added a personal message to the community: \u201cStay positive. Stay prayed up. Stay humble with the outcome of the situation and keep the vibes high. I love y\u2019all!\u201d<\/p>\n

Legal advocate Allen DeWane emphasized the significance of these efforts: \u201cIf he can do this from behind bars, just imagine what he\u2019s going to be able to do when he\u2019s released. He\u2019s thinking about what\u2019s best for our society\u2014and for the kids who need guidance and hope.\u201d<\/p>\n

Momma Flock summed it up perfectly: \u201cHe\u2019s loving. He wants everybody to win. He\u2019s grown, he\u2019s learned, and he wants the world to be a better place.\u201d From his Bronx roots to this Turkey Drive, Kay Flock\u2019s dedication to his community is clear\u2014and for those who know him, it\u2019s only the beginning.<\/p>\n
