Kay Flock, the Bronx drill rapper whose real name is Kevin Perez, was found guilty of several federal charges this week connected to a fatal shooting in 2021. Despite his conviction for attempted murder and other violent acts, he took to Instagram to boast about the outcome, claiming he 'beat the top count.' The jury deliberated for two days before convicting him of racketeering conspiracy and multiple firearm offenses. Acting U.S. Attorney Matthew Podolsky commented on Perez's influence and the accountability now enforced over his actions connected to gang violence.
"I beat the top count," the rapper, born Kevin Perez, boasted in an Instagram post. "I made the judge cry. He said now he not force to give me life."
"Perez, a drill rapper, instilled fear across the community with his violent actions, and then threatened rivals, bragged about shootings, and taunted victims in his rap lyrics," said Acting U.S. Attorney Matthew Podolsky in a statement.
