Ugly Mike’s Records on West 12th in Little Rock is a neighborhood institution. The old building is full of hundreds of rap, blues, soul and gospel CD’s, many of them out of print, as well as old vinyl records. There is a vast selection of local Arkansas rappers, and posters from local artists adorn the walls.
Here it is! The latest mixtape from Louisiana Ca$h. Click on the cover to download and enjoy.

The aftermath of the Grambling homecoming football game is always something of a custom car show, and this year was no exception. On the site of the old Martha Adams Hall, I ran into my homeboys from An What Entertainment in Shreveport, including DJ Hollyhood BayBay, who were sponsoring a party for a motorcycle club. Further down on RWE Jones Drive were the people from Louisiana Cash’s camp who were selling T-shirts that read “B_tch, I’m From Louisiana”. Getting out of the traffic nightmare and back towards Monroe proved to be difficult.
At a time when many rap artists seem to be abandoning regional rap styles in favor of the pursuit of a national sound, Lil O has created a quintessential Texas rap record with Grind Hard, Pray Harder. O’s no stranger to Houston rap fans (he even has a Greatest Hits CD), but this new album consists of 14 solid tracks, with an all-star cast of guests, including Killa Kyleon, Slim Thug, Chamillionaire, Devin tha Dude and Big K.R.I.T. Outstanding tracks include the UGK-sounding “Baulin in da City”, the current hot single “I’m What Dat Iz”, the sunny “Fresh Up Out the Cleaners” and the driving, street-hard “Betcha Can’t Do It”. Lil O’s Grind Hard, Pray Harder is a beautifully-produced piece of Houston rap, a throwback to the sound that made Houston famous.
