Well, wouldn’t you look who’s creeping and crawling, still balling in the mix. With a title like Houston, it should be a telltale sign what awaits the ear upon pushing play, and The Thugga does not disappoint with enough chopped & screwed, speak-her sex moments to help restart the H-Town revival in Twenty Twelve.

Of all people, Cam’ron knows money is the biggest motivator of all. That’s why the Boss Of All Bosses dropped this dedication to duckets for the third installment of his top-tier mixtape series. Read the rest of this entry »

The two Houston heavyweights stand tall on this track taken from Z-Ro’s upcoming album Meth, which is set to release on September 20th. Read the rest of this entry »

Rollin’ through the Texas interstate, you have to look clean whether you’re shining in the desert sun or living it up in one of the big cities. Anytime you see Killa Kyleon in H-Town with four wheels spinnin’, he has his Lone Star license and registration in check and the car looks like it came fresh out of the Jolly Rancher factory.

The original Texas Assholes reunite for “R.I.P.” As the title would allude to, the song is somber yet soulful as both artists take a few minutes to reflect on the lost ones, rap luminaries and lesser known friends as well. Read the rest of this entry »

For a song to be rightfully considered an anthem, it has to be widely accepted by the demographic it claims to cater to as their go-to track. In terms of official THC-themed-songs and the melting pot culture that claims name to the cultivation, Z-Ro’s self-proclaimed “Smoker’s Anthem” is probably not even cracking the Top 10.

Slim Thug may not be the most politically correct muthaf##ka in the world but…um…actually I have no rebuttal to come to his defense. The man said what he said. You Black sisters, b*tches and hoes better get some ackrite when the Thugga is in your presence. Read the rest of this entry »

Grind would have to be the best word to describe the Houston Hip-Hop scene. It’s prevalent in both the lyrics and general maneuverings of most artists from the area. Paul Wall is no exception as he’s back with his third album, eager to let the world know he’s still on the block posted like a mailbox. Full of tales on grinding, gripping grain and late night endeavors; he unveils very little more about who he is at a point in his career when most artists begin to define who they are. Sadly, instead of aiming for higher heights, he’s still caught up in living the Fast Life. Read the rest of this entry »

While the majority of you didn’t bother to check for the album — let alone the review, Z-Ro’s not letting something petty like a buzz window get in the way of promoting his 2008 effort Crack. Thankfully, the four months and change since the album dropped allowed him to buckle down and pick out two of the best tracks to advertise. Read the rest of this entry »

I’m sure Z-Ro has an album either already out or coming out, but I couldn’t tell you since I’m not up on my Texas music as of late. Truthfully, I watched this video on Read the rest of this entry »

Often one of the most overlooked in Houston’s famed rapper gene rapper, Z-Ro isn’t one to let popularity and politics stand in his way.

Nothing tests my love for Hip-Hop like a long ass road trip.

There’s only so much I can take in a 16 hour drive before I start to detest any collection of rhyming words. I just threw the iPod on random and about 9 hours in, each song started to run together and my eyes got heavy even while I was reciting the words to “Ghost Deini” (proving that I can in fact recite rap to Supreme Clientele in my sleep).

Then I got my wake-up call. Read the rest of this entry »
