Exclusive: Kay Flock Tells HOT97 About Leading a Bronx Turkey Drive from Behind Bars

Even behind bars, Kay Flock hasn’t forgotten the Bronx. In an exclusive HOT97 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.

“This week is all about giving back and blessings,” Kay Flock said. “Thanksgiving is coming, and I want to give back to my community and help out as much as I can.” Momma Flock smiled as she recalled the conversation: “He wants to make sure the shelters always have what they need. He’s seen the struggles, and he remembers what it’s like to need help.”

“All of the blessings I’ve been receiving, it’s only right to give it back to those who need it most,” Kay added. “I 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’ll always look out for my community.”

Even from prison, he is hands-on. He coordinates the event through phone calls, social media, and the support of his family. “I have to give thanks to my mother and my family—they’ve always supported me tremendously,” Kay said. “They helped me arrange this event. I feel that events like this help bring everyone together.” Momma Flock adds, “He’s always been that way—helping people carry groceries, moving things, anything someone needed. Even neighbors he didn’t know. One neighbor said, ‘Oh my god, your son is such a blessing. You don’t even know him, and he’s helping me.’ That’s who he is.”

For Kay, music and community work are inseparable. “He 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,” Momma Flock explained. Collaborations with artists like Cardi B have inspired him further. “She’s amazing, so friendly, so down to earth. Her working with my son was incredible. He’s inspired by seeing people from our neighborhood give back and lift others.”

Kay Flock Eyes Bronx Legacy, Promises Support and Hope for Youth

Looking ahead, Kay envisions a lasting impact on the Bronx. “He’s always talking about ways to help young kids, using his experiences to make a change,” Momma Flock said. “Once he’s out, he wants to own a space for youth, be there every day, talk to them, make sure they know they have support.” Kay added a personal message to the community: “Stay positive. Stay prayed up. Stay humble with the outcome of the situation and keep the vibes high. I love y’all!”

Legal advocate Allen DeWane emphasized the significance of these efforts: “If he can do this from behind bars, just imagine what he’s going to be able to do when he’s released. He’s thinking about what’s best for our society—and for the kids who need guidance and hope.”

Momma Flock summed it up perfectly: “He’s loving. He wants everybody to win. He’s grown, he’s learned, and he wants the world to be a better place.” From his Bronx roots to this Turkey Drive, Kay Flock’s dedication to his community is clear—and for those who know him, it’s only the beginning.
