BigXthaPlug continues his red-hot momentum with a brand new video for the Offset-assisted track “Climate” – a highlight from his most recent EP, The Biggest. The monumental collaboration adds an exclamation point to the Dallas rapper’s impressive run this year.
The video opens up with a live auction for a diamond-encrusted pendant. Enters BigX, and almost instantly, all of the energy in the room funnels in his direction. He swiftly puts an end to the bidding war at hand before finishing his verse. Then, for Offset’s part, he peppers the track with flex-heavy one-liners during a poker game that takes an unexpected turn.
By the end of it all, BigX comes to a hasty realization: “Stay away from the snakes ‘cause they slimey/Stay away from the fakes ‘cause they grimey.” Watch above.
As an independent artist, BigXthaPlug has cemented a name for himself as one of the prominent new voices that’s here to stay. The Biggest follows on from BigX’s seminal debut album, AMAR, which is home to his RIAA gold-certified hit “Texas.”
On top of it all, he’s gained support from the likes of Bun B, Shaq, Erykah Badu, Raekwon, Key Glock, DJ Akademiks, and was recently brought out as a special guest by Sexyy Red. All achieved while in the midst of tearing down stages across the country on his headlining ‘Don’t Mess With Texas Tour’ and ‘Only The Generals Tour’ with Kevin Gates.
“The track ‘CLIMATE’ with Offset is a cold and grimy highlight” – HotNewHipHop
“BigXthaPlug capped off his banner year with the release of a new EP” – Billboard
“In another life, he could have done voiceover work for movie trailers or acted as cartoon villains, but, thankfully, he’s a rapper because he’s damn good.” – Pitchfork
“Booming but relaxed, with his saliva-coating syllables like codeine, BigX’s voice is perfect for cutting through trunk-knocking 808s and strutting over pitched soul samples… his name will likely ring out beyond Texas very soon.” – SPIN Magazine
