Wacotron Drops Debut Mixtape SMOKIN TEXAS & “Hole In A Cup” Video
Wacotron has arrived with his debut mixtape SMOKIN TEXAS, executive produced by Southside and available everywhere via Pick Sick Records. We have a 420 Texas project on our hands, please enjoy at *high* volumes. Though Wacotron is a newcomer in the rap game, he’s a veteran in the streets, and the songs on SMOKIN TEXAS reflect the hard-earned wisdom of a self-made man. Tracks like “Air It Out,” “Coastin,” and “Gram And A Hoodie” will give you Wacotron’s more personal, lyrical moments, while “Hole In A Cup,” “Hold Up” and “Cut Me Up” will take you straight to the turn up. Wacotron’s lyricism is coy – it feels lowkey, but it’ll trick you! Two songs later you’ll say, “OH I see what you did there!,” and that’s what makes his music so exciting. There’s always something to pick out and dig for in his songwriting. My favorite line on the mixtape is on “Hold Up” when Wacotron rhymes, “When my daughter at the park’s the only time I let it slide.” And we can’t ignore the production! All of these bars riding over booming production from Southside, 808 Mafia, and Marshmello – it’s perfect. SMOKIN’ TEXAS features Wacotron’s previously released singles – “Cut Me Up,”“Take Off,”“Gram And A Hoodie,”“Toothpaste” and “Umbrella” ft. G Herbo & Marshmello.
Alongside SMOKIN TEXAS, Wacotron just dropped the video for the Marshmello produced “Hole In A Cup.” Directed by Donthypeme & We The Shooters, the new video displays the streetwise charisma that Wacotron’s fans have come to expect. “Hole In A Cup” is my favorite hook on the mixtape. SMOKIN TEXAS is available now via Pick Six Records!
Star2 x Sprite x Luh Kel release the new single and video “Where Would You Go?”. The song taps into the frustration of questioning someone’s loyalty to you. The verses seamlessly shift between English and Thai in a vibrant fusion of R&B-infused melodic hip hop that is both poignant and powerful.
“Where Would You Go?” was filmed at Wat Saket (The Golden Mount), which is a significant ancient Buddhist temple in Bangkok where monks live and pray. Many scenes took place in the cave on the property that displays a large replica of the towering 33 ft. “Bamiyan Buddha” from central Afghanistan that was destroyed by the Taliban in 2001, and recreated to bring back the lost cultural heritage.
“Where Would You Go?” is from Star2’s forthcoming EP, No Place Like Home, which is set to drop on May 9th.
Argentine singer Jazmín Sparta and producer Tito Lopez present leaked notes <3, an eight-track R&B album entirely in English. Inspired by private confessions people keep in their notes app, the project explores themes of love, pride, and playful detachment. Jazmín, a 21-year-old singer-songwriter from Quilmes and a former The Voice Argentina contestant, has explored pop, gospel, soul, and R&B in her past work, with her debut EP ROMPEPAGA and album CONVALESCERE tackling themes of resilience and healing. Tito, a 29-year-old composer, producer, and guitarist from Viedma, has worked with AfroSound Choir and various Argentine artists while composing for audiovisual projects like Discovery Channel. Blending gospel-inspired harmonic progressions with organic instrumentation, leaked notes <3 lets raw emotion take center stage. Released via Villa Verde, the album expands their reach, showcasing Argentine talent on an international R&B platform.

Nylo Cash and Omega The Poet have made a bedroom smash with “Eyes Roll Back.” The lustful tune is an exercise in melodic harmonies as they physical and emotional vulnerability. If you’re looking for another smooth song to add to your bedroom rotation, this is a track you’ll want to listen to. Special shoutout to Grammy-nominated producer Satyr Black on the background vocals.
Check out “Eyes Roll Back” below.
