That Mexican OT
Fierce Texas trapper That Mexican OT ("Outta Texas") has made a name for himself on the hip-hop scene with bold lyricism and a relentless flow while melding trap and mariachi guitars. After beginning his career with 2020's South Texas Project, singles like "Heart Stopper" and "Yoppas & Choppas" followed shortly thereafter and quickly established him as a rising regional star. His headstrong style, quick, gritty delivery, and technical gifts for crafting compelling cinematic soundscapes and angular beats, attracted attention across the Internet and with club DJs. He issued half-a-dozen singles in 2021, including the charting "Child's Play." Of the 13 singles he released to streaming the following year, "Chingon" (feat. Peso Peso) and "Kick Doe Click" charted in several Latin American countries. In 2023, his single "Johnny Dang" (feat. Paul Wall and DRODi) peaked at number 14 on the Hot 100. Lonestar Luchador, his 18-track collaboration-rich debut long-player, appeared in July, and Texas Technician followed in 2024.
With early influences varying from Big L to George Strait, Bay City-born Virgil Gazca demonstrated raw rap proficiency from his earliest days, impressing his father and his friends by breezily out-rapping them throughout his childhood years. Adopting the alias of That Mexican OT (the OT stands for "Outta Texas") in dual homage to his Texan and Mexican roots, he began recording over beats online after graduating from high school in Austin, debuting in 2020 with the distinctly Texan “Southside Stepping.” A fiery blend of relentless machine-gun flows, stalwart lyricism, and thumping 808-led production soon made Gazca one to watch on the Texas rap scene, and his style was quickly consolidated on 2020’s South Texas Project, a 13-track tape that put his larger-than-life personality on the global stage. A continual string of new releases saw the young MC continue to hone his singular style: 2021 mixtapes Southside Steppin and 1 Double 0 kept fans fed with a barrage of heavy-hitting anthems, a remix of Peso Peso’s “Hardest Ese Ever” became the rapper’s first major hit, and his 2022 album, Nonsense and Mexican Shit, upped the production values with a more cinematic take on his signature sound. After issuing Nonsense and Mexican Shit’s ChopNotSlop Remix LP in collaboration with OG Ron C, the rapper moved into 2023 with The Show Must Go On, a nine-track collaboration with Saxkboy KD.
Now regularly racking up multi-million-view counts with each new single, OT used his momentum to enlist Paul Wall and DRODi for "Johnny Dang," a defiantly Texan tribute to the titular jeweler that soon became the rapper's biggest hit yet, reaching number 14 on the Hot 100 and charting in more than a dozen countries alongside tens of millions of streams. In July 2023, That Mexican OT released Lonestar Luchador, his debut solo long-player. Among its 18 tracks were 13 collaborations with a who's-who of underground Texas trap and hip-hop artists, including Ralph Barbosa, Jr., BigXthaPlug, Lefty Sm, Maxo Kream, and Big Yavo. His second album, Texas Technician (2024), featured Z-Ro, Moneybagg Yo, Slim Thug, and others.
