King Gordy, whose real name is Waverly Walter Alford III, is a Detroit-based rapper known for his dark, horrorcore style of music, which often features shocking and macabre lyrics. King Gordy burst onto the scene with his debut album "The Entity" in 2003, which garnered attention for its raw and graphic content, as well as the production handled by fellow Detroit native Eminem on the track "The Pain." His persona, often flamboyant and confrontational, has become a fixture in the underground rap scene, where he has cultivated a devoted fan base.

Throughout his career, Gordy has maintained a prolific output, a fact evidenced by his numerous releases that explore the depths of horrorcore. Notable amongst his recent work are titles such as "Even Heathens: Odd Gods 2," "Cold Day In Hell," and "Nut In Her Butt." Despite the often inflammatory nature of his song titles and lyrics, King Gordy's music delves into themes of darkness and despair, presenting a theatrical and often satirical take on the horror genre in music. His collaboration with other artists in the scene, including his group The Fat Killahz and his partnership with rapper Bizarre to form the duo L.A.R.S., reflects the niche he has carved out in the hip-hop world as the reigning monarch of his unique brand of shock rap.
