Hip Hop That Mexican OT

In a whirlwind year, cowboy hat-toting That Mexican OT skyrocketed to fame with his smash hit “Johnny Dang,” paying homage to the famed Houston jeweler to the stars. The summer anthem — which also features Johnny’s rap business partner Paul Wall — not only graced the Billboard Hot 100 chart for 11 weeks but also earned a RIAA GOLD certification.

Capitalizing on his success, the 24-year-old Bay City, Texas rhymer dropped his debut studio album, Lonestar Luchado, marked by a memorable performance at a Houston Spotify concert and coveted spot on the platform’s Most Necessary playlist. Fusing his Tejano roots with influences from East Coast heavyweights like Slick Rick, Eminem, and Big Pun, the 18-track project features standout tunes like “Groovin,” “Skelz” and “Missed Calls.”

Kicking the year off with a bang, OT (meaning “outta Texas”) unveiled the visual treatment for “02.02.99,” setting the stage for what promises to be an exciting season.
