Many people have a stash of old keys in a drawer or cabinet for "future use." Some keys have been there so long that you no longer remember what they're for. A bike lock? An old car? A cabinet at work? These are Orphan Keys.
"Honey, can we get rid of those stupid Orphan Keys in the strong box?"
"Absolutely not! One of them might open that safe we buried in the back yard during the Nixon administration...if we can find it."

A key jangler or key jangling refers to anything that attempts to entertain the audience with the same (for example) jokes, one-liners, pranks, skits, (etc.) or anything similar which expects the audience to burst into laughter. Key jangling goes back to how a parent would jangle their keys in front of their baby to make them laugh or to distract them, which often works however, eventually becomes stale and unfunny over time as the baby would simply get tired and annoyed of the same material.
This term actually comes from one of Huggbees (A YouTube channel) videos titled: "The Forgotten Absurdist Comedy" from 0:20s onwards. He describes how:
"The current trend of comedy from sources such as YouTube, skits and TV shows coming from awkward dialogue, awkward characters and awkward pauses tends to just be one joke that they stretch for about 20 minutes to you."
and
"Modern internet memes are the comedy equivalent of this:" *proceeds to be a key jangler and jangles his keys in front of the camera while reeling YouTubes vast meme compilations behind him*

Three kilograms of cocaine. A key is standard slang for a kilogram of drugs, most often cocaine. By stating "by the three," one is saying that they buy cocaine 3 kilograms at a time with the intention of dealing. The following lines show this more. The statement of a Louis Nap Sack is in reference to a Louis Vuitton bag where he holds all of the cocaine or "work" to be dealt.
The other definition for key by the three is wrong, although the "when I chirp shorty chirp back" is in reference to cell phones.
