Paper Route Woo Releases Video of “Get Em Off” Ft Young Dolph
Buzzing in the Memphis scene for years, Paper Route Woo finally made good on his potential with his debut album Slime Dunkin’. Today, the South Memphis rapper treats his fans to a new music video for “Get ‘Em Off,” his long-awaited collaboration with his mentor, Young Dolph. Produced by PRE’s own BandPlay, “Get ‘Em Off” is a simmering trap banger, mixing cheeky organ with thudding percussion to provide a launchpad for both emcees. Originally recorded shortly before Dolph’s passing in 2021, the song is a true torch-passing moment from a rap legend to his handpicked mentee, as Dolph delivers a classic verse (“I could’ve bought another Lambo, but I bought a chain,” he spits) and Woo responds with flexes of his own (“Drive the foreign like a Hellcat,” he intones). In the video, Woo counts cash in South Memphis alongside his PRE brethren, as Dolph looks on through his Memphis mural and archival footage.
In late September, PaperRoute Woo released his long-awaited debut album, Slime Dunkin’. The 9-track project is both reflective and hard-charging, filled with nuggets of wisdom about life on the streets and motivational flexes about his rise from “Da Ghetto Part” of Memphis to the top of the city’s rap scene. The new tape is a coronation for the young artist, who welcomes guest spots from his Paper Route Empire brother Key Glock and his late mentor Young Dolph. Key Glock appears on the buzzing single “Playaz Circle,” also featuring Zo Trapalot, which was recorded on a whim during the Miami stop of Key Glock’s “GLOCKAVELI Tour.”
Beyond the collaborations with his fellow PRE rappers, Slime Dunkin’ demonstrates why PaperRoute Woo is one of his city’s most talked-about rappers. The album starts with “Rick Owens,” kicking off the tape with a simmering slow burn and offering a do-or-die mission statement that propels the project: You gon’ eat or you gon’ starve, you gon’ trap or you gon’ rob,” he intones. On “Da Ghetto Part,” sampling the same Willie Hutch song that Three 6 Mafia transformed into city anthem “Stay Fly,” the rapper expresses pride in his home neighborhood, as he reflects on overcoming odds that were stacked against him since birth. Ending with the fierce single “Emmett Till,” Slime Dunkin’ is available on all platforms via Paper Route Empire.
Building a big fanbase in Memphis off the strength of his street singles, like “Ricky” ft. Young Dolph, and Boyz In The Hood, his collaborative tape with PRE’s SNUPE BANDZ, Paper Route Woo is ready to step out on his own. Paper Route Woo had been making a name for himself in the Memphis rap game, dating back to 2020 with “In My Bag” and continuing through 2021’s “Pop Out,” which drew 2 million YouTube views. He also joined his mentor Young Dolph on “Nothing To Me,” a standout single from the 2021 PAPER ROUTE iLLUMINATi mixtape, generating over 10 million views. Most recently, Paper Route Woo supported Key Glock on his nationwide “GLOCKAVELI Tour.”
Fresh off tour and with Slime Dunkin’ hitting the streets, Paper Route Woo as looks to make it big. With PRE behind him and the streets on lock, there is no ceiling for the young rapper.
