I remember back a few years... maybe more... there was a classic song with the "Pacman" beat on it... I believe it was with Slim Thug, ESG & T2 - Of course later Lil' Flip tried to answer with "Game Over" -but I remember the original was all over the stinkin' radio back then... Where is it now? Anyone have this? I cannot seem to find it anywhere. Anyone know why it was basically eliminated from existence?
"This is For My..." That's what the song is called... it's pretty hard to find. I have it on one of my old CDs..

As in... Can someone send me a link to an mp3? Hint... wink... Or at least a cheap download place? Oh wait... you did.
Hah... I would send you the mp3 if I had it. That would require some digging and research --> then ripping it onto the computer... something I don't feel like doing at 3 in the morning.
No problem... you set me on the right track... EDIT: Found it on Youtube, and on Imeem... as an .flv file... converted it with SUPER(c)... "Somebody tell Kevin Cato, WE WANT OUR MONEY BACK!"
Along the same lines (guess I'm thread jackin) but I was wondering if anyone could drum up a list of old school 90's-early 2000s Houston based hip hop songs? I moved out in 01 to Chicago,and I've always wanted to somehow be able to still hear some of those Houston only hits....some of the stuff I do have is like old south park mexican, swishahouse, fat pat, lil keke, dj dmc, etc but I wanted to see if anyone had a list so I can make sure not to forget anything. Thanks!
Here's some classics off the top of my head: Lil Troy - "Wannabe a Balla" *THE BEST* Fat Pat - "Tops Drop" Fat Pat - "Man Hold Up" DJ DMD ft Keke and Fat Pat - "25 Lighters" Lil Keke - "Southside" Lil Keke - "Platinum in the Ghetto" Wreckshop Family - "Power Up" Lil Flip - "This is the way we Ball" Yungstar - "Knocking Pictures off the Wall" BIg Moe - "Purple Stuff" Everybody loves old UGK and Scarface/Geto Boyz stuff too... that's a little before my time. More recent: (Album) Paul Wall & Chamillionaire - "Get Ya Mind Correct" Z-Ro - "Mo City Don" Z-Ro - "One Night" Trae - "Swang" Bun-B - "Get Throwed" Bun-B and everybody else in Houston - "Draped Up (Remix)" Lil Keke - "Chunk up the Deuce" Pimp C - "Knocking Doorz Down" I'm not sure how much exposure these songs got to outside of Texas....
Street Military - "I Don't Give A Damn". Classic Houston Rap. One of the original artists to be screwed by Screw himself... back when screw tapes were screw tapes, not rappers sounding all stupid and slow over screwed-up beats.
"I am a dope fiend . .. . and I need drugs I got'em from chico [who's that] the neighborhood TTHUUUGGGG They keep telling me to stopp . . but I say go I am a dope fiend ooooooo i need more .. i need moooeeeee!! Rocket RIver
Big Moe - "Mann" Fat Pat - "If you only knew" RC Cola - "Man hold up" HAWK - "Chillin with my broad" Big Moe - "Playas get chose" Lil O - "Back Back" ESG - "Swang n Bang" UGK - "Wood Wheel" UGK - "3 In Da Morning" UGK - "Diamonds and Wood" UGK - "One Day You Here" UGK - "Pocket full of stones" UGK - "Tell Me Somethin Good" mannn this thread brought me back R.I.P. Pimp C, Fat Pat, Hawk and SCREW
Damn see I remember most of these.....there was nothin aftewards? It seems like houston underground hip hop sorta maybe died after it went mainstream.....I moved out to Chicago from H in 2001 and most of these are pre-01....
Also.. DJ DMD - So Real Big Pokey - Ball N Parlay Trae - Quit Callin Me Trae - No Help Lil Flip - I can do that Lil Flip - Sunshine
Hmm.. I stopped listening to htown rap or rap in general during the mike jones era but I guess you could say these then: Paul Wall - Sittin Sideways Chamillionaire - Turn it up Mike Jones - Still Tippin Mike Jones - Back Then Swishahouse - Chunk up the deuce Rob G - Reppin My Block Chamillionaire - Ridin Dirty Chamillionaire - Roll Call Reloaded (He imitates 20 texas rappers)
