Even though Hollywood F.L.O.S.S. could stand to have a better moniker, his talent is unquestionable.
After pledging allegiance to “Houston’s Underground” earlier this year over a slick, string-heavy beat and Bun-B voice-sample, ‘wood was nominated for two awards (Best Underground Artist and Best New Act) by the Houston Press. If traditional promo’s not enough to gain your ear, homie is also currently pushing his new mixtape, Art-or-fiscal Intelligence, which you can download for free below.
As a bonus, peep Hollywood spit about his trifling old girlfriend over the perfectly flipped Led Zeppelin sample on “All of My Love,” which unfortunately didn’t make the cut for clearance whatever reason.

This kid is killing the game in a real way, if you don’t wanna take notes you still need to pay attention to real artist when you hear them.
Damn, Floss is every where. Keep up the grind homie
Yes, someone who can flow. That sample alone is worthy of a listen. Oh my how we have made strides from Rolls Royce to Hollywood F.L.O.S.S. Good looks on this one Beware.

This sample is almost as dope as The Doors on The Takeover.
If u didn’t know, good music is being made in Houston…and F.L.O.S.S is a big part of great hip-hop!
FLOSS is ill, big up to him.
yo thanks khal
another great houston act. keep it coming.
Dope shit F.L.O.S.S. Keep it up my dude.
F.L.O.S.S is a dope mc that puts out good music. Get the mixtape and stop playin! You won’t regret it.
I fucks wit F.L.O.S.S’ music heavy… smooth as hell and he can actually rap… perfect balance of lyrics, flow, hooks, and beats… hopefully ill produce a track or two on the album… 100
I like this! Finally, some music that actually has meaning to it! Stay on your grind F.L.O.S.S.! You’ll always have mad love and support from this end!
Dope. I was feelin it, a lil something different out of that area.
Cosign. The boy is dope. Plus, he wears vests. Always a plus.
S
straight fire dude.
FLOSS my man keep the knowledge coming and keep showcasing this city the way you are. For those of us who still find reason to question the talent and dedication in Houston check out the mixtape!!!
peace to my ninja, floss. we’ve been down since forever on the music thang. art or fiscal intelligence crushes alot of the music h-town puts out, hell it crushes all of it. he’s a houston elite MC, THEM is in the building. progression in houston is all i ask, floss delivers. check out a track called “picasso emcees”, i’m on that joint, thanks for having me on the tape floss. “hollywood, so expect some theatrics”!!
yo this dude is alright but yall gotta look harder for the REAL hip hop in Houston yall…..its a cat outta the H named D-Risha that will crush this cat real type
If u didn’t know, good music is being made in Houston…and F.L.O.S.S is a big part of great hip-hop! More related content on “Militaryflirting.c o m”,there are also many handsome and promising military guys ,and hot,beautiful military admirers.
Floss doesn’t stick to the same blueprint that many other rap artist tend to follow. The rhymes and the melodies are refreshing, thought provoking and certainly not contrived.
Houston’s Hip Hop scene has waited patiently to not only be heard but also taken seriously. Floss (along with other Houston Elite MC’s) are right on time and have a remedy. Floss takes pride in repping not only Houston but Hip Hop and himself.
I am anxious to watch his success and his evolution as an artist. He carries an anointing, one that is sure to bless those who listen.
+F
The boy floss go hard. He gives a great live show.He repping the new shit thats poppen in houston.
Floss is a very talented lyricist. He’s made me a new fan of hip hop. If you think his recorded music is great, you should see his live performances. GENIUS, plain and simple.
One of the coldest negros out of Houston.
OMG! Hollywood F.L.O.S.S. is H-Town’s secret weapon. His lyrics will have you picking up a Dictionary & a Thesaurus. His skills are so vast, you can’t put him in a box. Hip-Hop roll out the red carpet, this one is a keeper!
@whatever – Take a step back guy. If your artist is so hot then post a link and let the people listen. You say he will “crush this cat real type”, give me a f*cking break pal. This is art, not the WWE. Step away from the keyboard and get a life.
For real, FLOSS is the truth. He’s one of the most genuine people I’ve ever met and that’s rare in the world of hip-hop. He is a true artist, never cornering himself into a pigeonhole. His willingness to work with different styles & genres has helped him become very versatile.
And, if you ever do a show with him, you better come prepared or you will be upstaged, guaranteed. And I hate to admit that b/c it’s happened to me.
From Houston with that Hollywood state of mind…stay grindin homie
T.H.E.M. stand the hell up! Good music stand the hell up! Get ‘em Floss!
Thats real Thurogood. Dont worry about that kat. I understand, he trying to get promo for his homie.
We appreciate all the positive feedback and for any negative(?) well…the music wasnt meant for your cognitive understanding but we hope to win you over soon (or at least your gal lol…jj…only halfway)
Again, thank yall on behalf of Hollywood F.L.O.S.S.

Good shit F.L.O.S.S.
I didn’t even know u were heavy in the rapping.. I thought u were BEATS. I fucks with you either way. Get it.
Who im I? Hello my name is “Kidd The Great” im the other artist on the hit song “ALL OF MY LOVE” which they keep forgetting to add my name on the song! Since it is coming out on my album I feel the world should know the name of the other great houston artist thats on the song! And with that being said “HOLLYWOOD FLOSS” is my little kinfolk but more like my litte brother! And its good to see that he has come so far in this rap game since he got on my 1st birthday bash CD in my room in’05. Can you belive he has only been rapping for 4 years! I been in the game for 10 years and he pass me up quickly! He is a hell of a rapper not to mention an even better producer! He has a lot of tracks on my new album “Kidd The Great” “That’s How I Be Liking My Mic!” and like I said my name is “Kidd The Great” and we both are T.H.E.M. Artist! Check me out too http://www.myspace.com/imkiddthegreat and you can twit me up too “Kidd The Great”
Yo F.L.O.S.S you the shit man! The world better get ready for you cause you def got something to say!! You got my support bro! Much love -Jasen
