Young Dolph‘s posthumous appearance on the remix to Key Glock‘s “Let’s Go” proves that the rapper is still missing his longtime mentor and friend.
Released on Friday (April 12), the remix was shared along with a visualizer conceived by the rapper and released on Paper Route Empire Records.
And based on the response in the comments, fans of Flipper couldn’t be more pleased. “DOLPH AINT DEAD HE LIVING THOUGH GLOCK AND EVERY OTHER HUSTLER WHO TAKING CARE OF THEY BUISNESS,” wrote one commenter, while another wrote, “Song was already fire, Dolph took it to another Level…Glock and Dolph that shits Major…everytime….Long Live Adolph Thornton Jr.”
Check out the official visualizer and new verse below.
Young Dolph’s tragic murder continues to haunt the young rapper, as he revealed back in November 2023 on the anniversary of his death.
Taking to his Instagram stories on November 17, the mentee of the late rapper revealed that he was still struggling with Flipper’s murder.
“Don’t call/text me asking how I feel,” he wrote. “I’ll never get over this shit. Let me deal with it alone. Luv [blue heart emoji].”
Back in February, Young Dolph’s accused murderer was issued a warning by the judge presiding over the case to refrain from engaging with the media while the trial is still underway.
One of the prime suspects in the case, Hernandez Govan, was arrested for the crime in 2022 and charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit first-degree murder. Soon after, he was granted bond for $90,000 and put on house arrest so he could find work to take care of his family.
On Friday (February 16), Shelby County Judge J. Jennifer Mitchell criticized the defendant for talking to a journalist.
“[I] shouldn’t have to remind you that you’re out on a bond,” she began. “At this point, the court feels like you’re playing, and playing fast and loose with the court and these stipulations, and I don’t like that.
“You have filed a motion through your attorney, asking me to review your bond conditions. And before we could ever do that, I get a message from a concerned citizen that you’re out doing interviews.
“Whether you’re talking about this case or not, you’re doing interviews. The court doesn’t like the fact that you feel free enough to do interviews, because what could be happening is that you could be in jail, and it’s a whole lot easier to supervise you there. But you’ve been given the opportunity to post a bond with bond conditions, and you’re not doing those things you need to do.”
She added: “We’re going to review those bond conditions on March 1, but let me make myself extremely clear to you that you are to not have any interviews with anybody for any reason.”
The DA told reporters that Govan did not talk about the case during his 28-minute interview, which was posted on YouTube.
“It wasn’t the smartest thing to talk from house arrest, you know, in a YouTube video, but it wasn’t anything about the case and in fact he would say no comment any time someone asked him about the case,” Paul Hagerman explained to Memphis’ FOX13.
“They talked about rap music, various rappers, and they talked some about Mr. Govan’s daughter that is deceased now. He was asked two or three times about the case that he did not answer.”
