It may be hard to believe that any modern-day Dirty South rappers took inspiration from the ‘80s pioneers who laid the groundwork for hip-hop to come, but Dallas native Fat Pimp is one of the few for whom that is truly is the case.  As he demonstrates how Fresh he is, his 80s-baby roots come through loud and clear; dropping references to the Beastie Boys’ Paul Revere, LL Cool J‘s Rock the Bells and Doin’ It, and Slick Rick’s La Di Da Di while showing off his old-school fashion sense (think Adidas outfit with the gold cable).  Production team DSF do what they do best, investing a minimal sound with classic flair and cementing Fresh as a record with plenty to offer old-school and new-school hip-hop heads alike.  Fat Pimp’s debut album, Swag School, is expected to be released later in ‘09.

This track gets super boring... but for some reason I cant rate it less than a 3 and I cant figure out why. It actually sounds a lot like the Cool Kids, production and subject matter-wise. That's good for me cuz I love the Cool Kids.

The production is a lil to thin for me in most parts to keep it interesting. I do like dudes flow and lyrics tho. Maybe its jus cuz I'm an 80's baby, i dont know, but its in rotation.

The beat is catchy but gets boring after a while. He brings some some decent lyrics with an average hook. Decent listen

old school flavor and homage, but this song is, sad to say, missing a collabo to make it actually "fresh"

Diggin: The old school feel, the 80's references, the production (which The Cool Kids would have murdered).

Not Diggin: Fat Pimp's energy (need a little more).

Sounds like Rick Ross on a David Banner beat. Its pretty cool though, nothing amazing. Feeling the old school feel. As Z said, Cool Kids would have murdered this.

Everyone is right on, Cool Kids would kill this beat. As for the song itself, it was ok. Nothin special and not enough energy if he's going to spit about being 'fresh'. Sure, you might be fresh, but you're also putting me to sleep.

This track lacks some musicality, but the beat is absolutely fire! His flow is great...I'm digging this, by the way it can't get more than 3 stars as it gets repetitive really quickly

Fat pimp is a dirty south artist..this joint will be guarnteed to get played in the south..the south is all about creating a dance to the songs..the 80's are back so he's smart with the concept of the song..18-21 year olds will bump this and rock to it in the club

Dallas stand up! We sneaking in the backdoor trying to get up to D.O.C. status. The problem is we haven't had a mc as good as DOC was, but I like the movement is going strong. Track is ok a nice rotation joint.
