Trae the Truth
I like the hip-hop music Houston produces. I was listening to Trae’s latest CD, “The Beginning”, and heard a great song called “Wake Up” (ft. Z-Ro and Slim Thug). It’s one of those gems that never make it on Bill O’Reilly’s radar. For those of you not familiar, Trae is a fixture in the Houston underground. He has one of the most distinct voices in the industry and mixes his harsh realities with a fast flow.
LISTEN TO “WAKE UP”: Hardcore Houston Hip-Hop with Real Social Commentary
Slim Thug, another one of Houston’s heavyweights, on dealing drugs:
If it’s less than a g [$1,000] you’re making
You gotta really sit and think about the chance ya taking
Bring ten dollars home better than bringing none
At least you get to spend time with your daughter or son
Selling rocks ain’t gon’ get you to the top
It’s gon get your ass locked…
- Slim Thug “Wake Up”
Trae and Z-Ro are solo artists, cousins, and a collective group called ABN. Check out some quoteables from “Wake Up” about community violence.
And all the while we complain about our situation
When niggas rather lose their life than lose their reputation
And take it how you wanna – I ain’t scared to tell you the truth
- Trae “Wake Up”If Martin Luther was alive he’d be pissed
…His dream was a nightmare
We kill each other so quick
- Z-Ro “Wake Up”

Deep song, and yes trae has been killing the game…
But he is kinda a hypocrite. He’s talked about setting a good path for the kids and all and houston coming together…
And then he pulls a publicity stunt at an award show on a rapper(mike jones) who isnt even relevant. He tells a different story, but everyone including his cousin Z-ro said it was out of line. Look at the video its all there.
He shook The mans hand like they week cool, only to start swinging minutes later out of the blue…
and at a show that was suppose to be about houston finally coming together….
What kind of message does that send?
And what king of image are you feeding to the opinions of someone like O’reilly by doing that?
Yea Fuck you Jay it don’t matter if you say he shook the mans hand if I get disrespected im going to retaliate and it don’t matter Jay I would punch you in the nose.if you don’t know facts don’t speak on it….Real g get off mike jones dick Trae has always been the truth and there is none better…im out…..Pfc Monroe USA.
