Paper Route Woo: The ‘Laced’ music video
Who drops songs without fire visuals in 2025? Turns out rap artist Paper Route Woo is delivering anthems with his ‘Laced’ visual officials ready for viewing.
It’s more than just storytelling in this cinematic drop. Tap in.
With a gift for storytelling and no-nonsense flexing, PaperRoute Woo has made a name for himself as one of the South's most exciting young rappers. Today, the Paper Route Empire signee brings to life another highlight from his debut album, Slime Dunkin', sharing the music video for "Laced." Riding rubbery bass and skittering hi-hats, Woo piles on flex after flex, his easygoing drawl betraying the grandiosity of his pronouncements: "Two tone wrist? Please n****, nah, I'm thinking three," he spits. In the video, Woo relives a turbulent relationship from its promising start to its emotional finish, as Woo kicks his ex out of his house after he finds her cheating.
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, on the mixtape highlight "Get 'Em Off." Key Glock appears on the buzzing single "Playaz Circle," also featuring ZoTrapalot, 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' out now, Paper Route Woo looks to make it big. With PRE behind him and the streets on lock, there is no ceiling for the young rapper.
