Houston Hip-Hop pioneer and Swishahouse founder Michael ‘5000’ Watts dies at 52

Being from the northside of Houston, where we didn’t have a lot of representation musically until swishahouse came, watts stamped us despite all the blowback that came from southside artists for doing screw music.

All those cats that blew up during the Houston boom back in 04/05 owe their careers to watts

Rest in peace big dawg


He helped a lot of people eat

Hell Southside cats started running to the North when they saw
how they were getting paid off music(ESG, Flip, Keke, Yung Redd)


Flip was talking that balling shit but Slim Thug was really living it

Houston losing recipes. RIP


S.U.C died when Fat Pat got smoked

Rap-A-Lot more known for Mob Ties and James Prince being a caricature of himself than dropping music these days

Watts gone.....the only people that have ever been good at Chopping and Screwing music were him, Screw, OG Ron C, Beltway 8 and Dj Yella Boy up in Dallas who did DSR stuff....Paul Wall is solid. Swishahouse as a and/label hasn't done anything in years though

Everyone is pretty much warshed or dont care about rap anymore for the most part minus a few exceptions

Not trying to hear Propain or Les


Sauce, The Stallion, Mexican OT, Maxo Kream and Weirdo Travis Scott caring the torch now









Its over
