Today (6.27), Atlanta-based rapper Lil Tony released his newest single “Answer My Prayers” via Priority Records. With this release, Tony embraces a new chapter under the name Key. The shift marks more than a name change. It’s a personal evolution and a spiritual awakening that reflects where he’s headed and what he’s leaving behind.
Inspired by Psalms 4, “Answer My Prayers” is both a plea and a protection prayer. It’s made for listeners who need healing. “You’re getting blessed without even realizing it,” shares Key. “It’s meant to cover you.
The track follows the June 6 drop of “Let’s Get Into It,” a focused record co-produced with Yarkee that introduced fans to the energy behind Tkey vs. Tony, his upcoming self-produced project releasing July 11th. The project captures a real-time transformation, stepping away from chaos and moving toward clarity, intention, and elevation.
Earlier this year, Key set the tone with Born Again, which landed Top 5 on Apple Music and Top 10 on Spotify’s New Albums chart. With more than 180 million streams worldwide and a viral moment in “2 Sides to Every Story” (currently Top 30 trending on TikTok), he’s already earning praise from XXL, Pitchfork, FADER, and VIBE.
Key isn’t just turning the page. He’s writing a whole new book — and the story starts here.
