Artist

Alexander Gabriel Quezada (born August 29, 2003), professionally known as Glokk40Spaz, is a recording artist from Decatur, Georgia.

In a November 2020 interview with Breativity, Spaz explained the origins of his stage name:

[Yeah, I be spazzing out] personally. You know, I always had a thing for guns, you know what I’m saying? The Glock 40 the fav, it’s long, you know what I’m saying, it’s big, it’s a big gun. We going big with this shit or something.

Citing D. Savage as his biggest inspiration, Glokk40Spaz began creating music in late 2018, with his first song “Glokkn” with BabySolid on SoundCloud.

Spaz gained popularity while incarcerated as a result of his songs “Round Here” and “Definition” garnering recognition. He would further capitalize on this buzz with songs such as “Be Right Back” and “Remember Me.” All of these songs would soon be re-released on his first compilation album, Glokk Files, released on June 2, 2023.

Spaz is known for his affiliation with EBG RECORDS, having worked with artists such as Go.unna, Lil EBG, and BabySolid, among others. On January 29, 2024, Spaz launched his second label from jail, EBT40 RECORDS, in which he will recruit older artists. Despite his newfound success in the industry, going as far as to getting a record deal with Columbia Records, Spaz is currently incarcerated in Fulton County Jail and is facing armed robbery charges.

While in jail, his team continues to release Spaz’s remaining music from the vault, starting with his debut studio album, Took The Biggest Risk, released on September 8, 2023. The deluxe version, titled After TTBR, would then be released on March 1, 2024. Glokk is expected to release his sophomore studio album, Da Real OSO, sometime in 2024.
