PRE’s Jay Fizzle Pops Tags in New Video for “Blow A Hundred”
Repping for Paper Route Empire for nearly 10 years, Jay Fizzle is loyal to the bone. The Memphis firebrand reaps the rewards of his realness on “Blow A Hundred,” his first new single and music video of 2025. A simmering trap heater, “Blow A Hundred” fits Fizzle’s tumbling bars atop thunderous 808s and ambient synths, echoing the ominous atmosphere of his city’s horrorcore classics. Fizzle stacks syllables into winding flexes, boasting of his fat pockets, foreign watches, and unimaginable wealth: “Yeah I got a whole lotta money/Hunnid K to me ain’t nothin/,” he stresses. In the video, Fizzle gives a glimpse into his day-to-day, filled with shopping sprees, dice games (with his PRE labelmate Big Moochie Grape), and steak dinners at 5-star establishments.
“Blow A Hundred” follows in the wake of Who Is Grizzape, the rapper’s 2024 album. A feast of no-holds-barred Memphis music, Who Is Grizzape provides an inside look at the rapper’s money motivations, as he strives to provide a better life for himself and his kids. The album plays host to anthems like “Front And Back Pocket,” which boasts a slowed sample of Young Dolph’s 2015 song “Boyz In The Hood,” and “No Mo,” a collaboration with his PRE compadre Key Glock and the late legend Big Scarr. Jay Fizzle opened up even more in the revealing Who Is Grizzape mini-documentary, available on his YouTube channel.
Hard at work on the follow-up to Who Is Grizzape, Jay Fizzle looks to solidify his hold on the Memphis rap game. Stay tuned for more from the prolific rapper in the near future.

| “..the members of Paper Route Empire reach a level of sincerity and emotional reflection that’s still hard to come by.” – Pitchfork “Choosing some of the more interesting production to rhyme over, Jay Fizzle’s frankness and the flows he has on tap keep him in the convo as the whole city takes off.” – XXL Mag “10 Rappers You Should Know Right Now” – DJ Booth “The tape serves as both a testament to Memphis’ current rap preeminence and Fizzle’s own dexterity. He saves perhaps the hardest for last on the tape, attacking a looped vocal sample and towering percussion with ferocity.” – DJ Booth “Jay Fizzle is a master of the searing street rap that serves as the bass-booming heart of Memphis music.” – The Hype Magazine |
