Paul Wall and Lil Keke Drop New Single "Swangin' Glass" to Represent the Slab Movement

 


Houston's rap scene is ablaze once again as Paul Wall and Lil Keke team up for their latest track, "Swangin' Glass." This homage to H-town's iconic slab culture is set to make waves, and fans are eagerly awaiting its release on December 15th via Oiler Mobb/ONErpm.



"Swangin' Glass" showcases Paul Wall's signature chopped-and-screwed style, while Lil Keke brings his distinctive lyrical flow. The accompanying video immerses viewers in the very essence of slab culture, complete with Paul Wall's own customized "slab."


This isn't the first time these two Houston legends have collaborated. In 2020, they dropped the joint album *Slab Talk*, a project that arrived during a tumultuous period. Both artists were actively protesting the police killing of George "Big" Floyd, who had deep ties to DJ Screw and the S.U.C.


*Slab Talk* featured 10 tracks, with guest appearances from Slim Thug, Big Pokey, and Kendall Thomas. The album resonated with fans, capturing the spirit of Houston's streets and paying homage to its rich musical heritage.


Recently, Paul Wall joined forces with That Mexican OT for the single "Covered in Ice," marking their second collaboration of the year. But it was OT's surprise gift that stole the spotlight: a gold plaque for their debut single, "Johnny Dang." This track not only put the Texas newcomer on the map but also introduced Paul Wall to a whole new audience.


Despite being a hip-hop staple since 1998, Paul Wall's name may not ring as many bells with Gen Z as it does with older fans. However, he remains unafraid to educate unsuspecting music enthusiasts, proving that his legacy continues to evolve and inspire across generations.
