Slim Thug – “Welcome to Houston” (Feat. Chamillionaire, Z-Ro, Lil Keke, & UGK)

Godwon – “Fire”

Godwon – Fire

If you’ve never heard of Godwon, this track is for you. It’s like autobiography on wax. Pull up a chair, grab a cold drink, and crank your speakers wayyy up. Feedback, criticism, or fridge-throwing is always welcome.

Godwon – CREAM Freestyle

Who drops a CREAM freestyle in 2009, right? Well, that’s what I thought until I hit the play button. Now there’s a harmonious riot going on in my speakers. I couldn’t resist the urge to share.

Mike Jones Chain Snatchers Don’t Care About Stupid Rings

Mike Jones’ heavily bejeweled Ice Age pendant was stolen from his neck in what the Bayou city rapper described as a “learning lesson” (not to be confused with a teaching lesson). Peep MJ’s account of the unfortunate incident:

“I was asleep in my house one day, I woke up, and my homie stole it from me,” Mike Jones explained to BallerStatus. “They stole the [white platinum] chain, the bracelet, and the watch, but I still got my ring though. I’m good. All that was insured, so all that’s coming back.”

Jay’Ton – “Hood Wired Up” (Ft. J-Dawg & Lil Boss)

Nothing like some good ol’ Houston-bred hood rap to spice up a lazy Hump Day. I feel so much better after watching this.

Chamillionaire – Maybach Music Freestyle [w/ Video]

Oh hey, it’s King Koopa with a rather fierce freestyle over Rick Ross’ “Mayback Music” beat.
