Texas Pride and West Coast Vibes: Unpacking BigXthaPlug's '6WA'

BigXthaPlug: A Voice for the Lone Star State

In the vibrant tapestry of hip-hop culture, artists often emerge as storytellers, and BigXthaPlug is no exception. With his new single '6WA,' he not only showcases his musical prowess but also resonates deeply with the heritage of Texas. As a Dallas native, BigXthaPlug understands the duality of his environment — both embracing local tradition and drawing inspiration from a broader musical landscape.

'6WA' - More Than Just a Track

The track '6WA' is more than just the first single from an upcoming mixtape; it's a cultural statement. Infused with vintage West Coast sonics, this anthem pays homage to the legends of California rap while firmly rooting itself in Texan pride. Featuring a dynamic collaboration among artists like Ro$ama, Yung Hood, and Murdagang PB, the song is a celebration of unity, resilience, and the rich history of hip-hop.

“We're trying to express ourselves in our own words. To let them know what we've been through and what we've overcome,” BigXthaPlug declared. “We all have the same mission and the same goal.”

A Visual Feast

Directed by Jerry Morka, the music video for '6WA' is a visual treat. It features old-school automobiles splattered with candy paint and glimmering rims, embodying a quintessential Texan ethos of doing things bigger and better. The nostalgic imagery coupled with the infectious beats creates a gritty yet uplifting experience, positioning '6WA' as a defining track for 2026.

A Mixtape to Remember

This single precedes the release of their much-anticipated mixtape, also titled 6WA, set to drop on March 20. With artwork inspired by N.W.A's iconic 1989 record Straight Outta Compton, it promises to be packed with collaborations, including tracks featuring Snoop Dogg and the legendary D.O.C.. The mixtape builds on the crew's earlier release, Meet the 6ixers, continuing their journey to redefine the hip-hop scene in Texas.

600 Entertainment: The Rising Force

As the founder of 600 Entertainment, BigXthaPlug is not just an artist but a visionary leader looking to elevate his label's roster. With a lineup that includes formidable talents like KevanGotBandz and KaineMusic, the label is poised to become a breakout star, mirroring the path blazed by legendary collectives such as Screwed Up Click and Swishahouse.
