Биография

Delivering droves of the larger-than-life braggadocio at the core of Michigan rap, FWC Big Key ("Cashgang Key") burst onto the scene in 2018, racking up millions of streams with cocky anthems like "FTO" and "Free Kay Flock." His punchy vocals, piano-led beats, and disrespectful bars formed an infectious combo, producing banger-heavy mixtapes Key to the World (2021), Industry Ready (2022), and Blackballed (2022). Delivering a relentless offensive over intense piano lines and hammering 808s, rapper FWC Big Key made his debut with 2018 EP Welcome to Linwood, a grounded set of street tales putting on for Linwood, Michigan. Subsequent singles, including the Rio Da Yung OG-featuring "Pressure," paved the way for Key's first mixtape. Titled Key to the City, the project was a collection of tough-minded takes on Michigan's signature sounds with appearances from Rio, Realrichizzo, and BagBoy Mell. EPs Quarantine Pack and Keys Open Doors continued to take the rapper's sound in punchier directions ahead of second mixtape Key to the World (2021), which established him on the international stage through standout banger "FTO." 2022 proved Key's most successful and prolific year to date. Mixtapes Industry Ready and Blackballed offered the crispest renditions of his sound thus far, bringing his towering persona and bold vocals to an audience of millions. ~ David Crone, Rovi
