New Fat Tony rap song, “Wife Plot.” Go jam it. P.S. This is hosted via venerable indie blog Brooklyn Vegan’s Soundcloud account. It’s always nice to see Tony get some more recognition.
Fat Tony & Tom Cruz. New song from the album Double Dragon. Out this summer. Produced by Tom Cruz.

Further proof that the best hip-hop in America these days is being created in Houston, TX. So many hip, hot underground rappers across the country - from Yelawolf to A$AP Rocky and everyone in between - are borrowing copiously and reverentially from the H-Town Sound.
Do yourself a favor and download this record. After that, go download “One Fan At A Time” by @hollywoodfloss and “RABDARGAB” by @fattonyrap.

Our friend Adam has said it well enough, so go download Break Something already.

I have 3 tracks from the new album posted on my bandcamp site. Go get them now. BREAK SOMETHING 11.30.11
Hash is gearing up to release Break Something, in case you hadn’t noticed. As a talented producer himself, the production choices on the three new tracks are excellent.
Check out the new tracks, which includes the Tom Seaver-referencing “The Death Penalty” and the Chris Rockaway-produced “New Polos.”

My new sounds
Today’s hip-hop day or something. Actually, I’m just trying to do a bit of catching up around here - there are so many drafts sitting in the stacks right now, and more just keeps accumulating.
While the local music news keeps piling on, however, drop this new track from HasHBrown’s upcoming Break Something LP, “The Death Penalty,” into your headphones.

Fat Tony gets a nod from the Village Voice, who tracked him down at CMJ. We love you, Tony. Looks like your priorities are in all the right places.
Thanks Village Voice for catching me stumbling through The Fader Fort at this past CMJ 2011 and asking me the tough questions about food and what’s in my pockets. Y’all were pretty cool. Love you, Puja Patel.
And many thanks to L.A.’s finest stylist Karolyn Pho for the hoop earring with three dangling crosses I rocked rather well. http://thetranslation.tumblr.com
Shoutout Trill City Kings too for the hat! Holler.The band: Fat Tony
Where they’re from: Houston
What are you doing next?
I’m playing two shows. The first is the BPM show on Houston that my homeboy Jason Scott Henderson is putting it on. After that I’m doing a show with me, Ninjasonik, Japanther and a whole bunch of others who are gonna rage in that shit.
What’s the best show that you’ve been to at CMJ?
I can’t even lie. I don’t know where I’ve been at all but I know that I’m here right now. You feel me?
What non-CMJ thing do you want to do while you’re in New York?
I wanna smoke some of the finest weed New York has to offer. I want to pay my respects to all the New York legends that are out there doing their thing. And I want to drink a lot of rum. Whiskey is tight too. Shout out to all the rich people who put money into the open bars for CMJ. Y’all are doing a great job of helping me get faded.
What makes up your survival kit for CMJ?
I survive strictly on pizza, soda water, marijuana, alcohol, and good vibes. And my friends. Yes, I am crashing at a friend’s place. I haven’t reached the status of having rich people pay for my hotel just yet but hopefully I will next year.
What’s in your pockets right now?
In my pockets right now? A yellow comb and a beautiful phone. It’s a smart-phone, by the way, because I’m a smart guy.
What was the last thing you ate?
Two slices of pizza and a combination of Tropicana fruit punch and Tropicana lemonade. That’s all I’ve eaten today and probably all I will eat for the rest of the night.

Remember Marcus Manchild's Preseason 2? - Rocks Off
Marcus Manchild has a new mixtape, <em>Preseason 2</em>, which you can download through Datpiff.com. Shea Serrano explains everything for you over at the Houston Press.
I’m reposting what Fat Tony has already pointed out below, but it bears repeating: B L A C K I E’s True Spirit And Not Giving A Fuck was unleashed today. Not only is it out, but also Mike is giving this release away for free, living up to the album’s name.
Oh, and Andrew Noz, of some little music site called Fader, bothered to mention it. FADER! That is awesome. Congratulations Mike, and thanks for the new music. As Tony mentions below, lyrics are included so that you don’t have to try to decipher all that yelling. While your album downloads, stream this powerful track, “Warchild.”
@B_L_A_C_K_I_E new album: True Spirit and Not Giving A Fuck. Free. Comes with lyrics too! Mount up. http://www.mediafire.com/?qvxla1m69du7opt
LOOK AT THE GUY WHO LIVES IN THE SKY
HE THINKS THAT HE’S GOD ITS A LIE
A REPTILIAN IN A BUILDING WHOSE DECISIONS CONTROL WHO’S LIVING
AND HE MAILS HELL TO CHILDREN
WITH DIRT SKIN AND DIFFERENT RELIGIONI DONT CARE ABOUT AMERICA NIGGA
IT KILLS ITS YOUTH
TO END ALL LIFELOOK AT THE GUY HOLDING THE SIGN
ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I CRIED
AND HIS SKIN WAS CRACKING
OTHER MEN WERE LAUGHING
COINS
ALL HE WAS ASKINGI DONT WANT TO BE NOTHING BABY
TO END ALL LIFELOOK AT THE GUY WHO RIDES IN THE SKY
ON A METAL FLY WITH DEMONS INSIDE
FIRE HE SUPPLIES TO VILLAGES AND TOWNSWELL ALRIGHT
HE MAKES FRIENDS RATHER QUICKLY
THEY SHAKE HANDS RATHER SWIFTLY
BLOOD IN THE AIR NOISE EVERYWHERE
NOWHERE WAS VICTORYTO END ALL LIFE
I DONT CARE ABOUT AMERICA NIGGA
IT KILLS ITS YOUTH
IM FULL OF DRUGS AND DREAMS AND I WILL SHOOTI DONT CARE ABOUT AMERICA NIGGA
IT KILLS ITS YOUTH
RIGHT NOW MY LIFESTYLE IS HOSTILE
I AM NOW A WARCHILDhttp://blackieallcapswithspaces.com

A Rap Guide To The HISD Football Playbook - Rocks Off
First, allow me to state that Shea Serrano is one of my favorite writers at Rocks Off.
Second, he is perhaps at his funniest when discussing his adorable matching ninja children, as well as his middle school students.
This newest article from him has ascended to my favorite articles in Rocks Off history, wherein he describes his method of using local hip-hop references to disguise football plays.
Brilliant, and fun. Go read.
Guess Who’s Back?! Scarface! (@BrotherMob) - House of Blues Houston on Flickr.
Check this Scarface photo out, from my fellow shooter Marco Torres. This was at the DMX show last week, and is believed to be Scarface’s first public appearance since being released from prison. Go read Shea Serrano’s awesome review of the show at Rocks Off.
