Young Dolph – King Of Memphis (LP Vinyl)
Young Dolph Vinyl Records
Product Details
Young Dolph built his name on the streets of Memphis long before 2016, grinding through a mixtape run that earned him respect in the South without owing anyone a favor. King of Memphis arrived as proof that the independent route wasn't a consolation prize but a conscious choice, and Dolph wore that freedom loudly. This anniversary pressing, in Royalty Blue and Gold vinyl, is a fitting tribute to an artist whose murder in 2021 made his legacy all the more essential to preserve.
1xLP, Pressed on Royalty Blue & Gold A Side B Side Vinyl. Includes insert & housed in a gatefold jacket. Ten years ago, Adolph Robert Thornton Jr. Planted his flag. Released on February 19, 2016, King of Memphis wasn't just a debut studio album; it was a bold declaration of independence and a flawless blueprint for self-made success. To celebrate a decade of this foundational Southern rap masterpiece, Paper Route Empire is honoring Young Dolph's legacy with a series of exclusive, limited-edition 10th Anniversary vinyl variants. Before King of Memphis, Dolph had already built a massive underground following through a relentless run of mixtapes. But this official debut elevated him from a local hero to a national powerhouse. By bypassing the major label system and releasing the project entirely through his own Paper Route Empire (PRE), Dolph proved that undeniable talent, relentless hustle, and business savvy were all you needed to take the crown. The album peaked in the Top 50 of the Billboard 200, an incredible feat for a fiercely independent artist at the time, and cemented his status as a CEO who called his own shots. King of Memphis is all killer, no filler. Over 11 tracks, Dolph's signature slow-flow delivery and larger-than-life charisma glide over heavy-hitting, trap-defining production from a legendary lineup of producers, including Mike WiLL Made-It, Zaytoven, TM88, and Cassius Jay. With zero guest features, the project relies entirely on Dolph's magnetic presence. From the motivational hustler's anthem "Get Paid" to the menacing confidence of "Let Me See It" and "Royalty, " the album plays like a victory lap for a self-made king.
