BeatKing hops on OTB Fastlane's regional hit, "Ball On Em".

OTB Fastlane's "Ball On Em" has been buzzing on the north side of Houston, and as it liberally samples Project Pat's 2001 hit, "Chicken Head," H-Town's resident Memphis rap connoisseur BeatKing couldn't resist hopping on the record. Leaving the recognizable synth line completely intact, Fastlane's record captures the aggressive catchiness of the original with a delivery that recalls both classic Three 6 material and the crunk movement that followed. BeatKing's contribution is relatively reserved next to Fastlane's raspy bark, but he brings the record further into Houston with his bass-y vocal finesse. It should bring the record even more attention within the city and beyond.
