Trapboy Freddy and Go Yayo are Young and Proud in Self-Titled Mixtape
Securing Dallas-Fort Worth’s place in the music map are natives Trapboy Freddy and Go Yayo with their critically acclaimed individual work and recently, with Trap & Yayo — their take on a full-length collaborative mix. The self-titled project, released last July 20, is not their first time to work together — Trapboy Freddy did a verse on Go Yayo’s “Gotta Know That”, and Yayo on Trap’s “6 Pick”– and if the fans have it their way, shouldn’t be the last.
Produced by the kinds of Shun On Da Beat and GamerBoy, Trap & Yayo features 10 high-energy tracks depicting a rapper’s young time in DFW. Filled with allusions to performing in strip clubs, winning in street brawls, and just making a ton of money, T&Y is an unapologetic account of a couple hustlers having fun reaping fame and coin, as best exemplified in club banger “Power” (Come on my block n*gga, you getting wet!). In June-produced “Look at Me”, both don’t shy away from luxury and drop heavy green just because they can.
Look at me, I got diamonds on me VVS
In designer head to toe, I walked in Neimans, I just blew a check
Watchin’ who I serve, these pussy police wanna leave me stretched
HoodFame seein’ me, we goin’ global, n*gga fuck your set

Everybody knows Houston to be the hip-hop capital of Texas, but any self-respecting hip-hop fan knows not to sleep on the neighboring Dallas-Fort Worth rap scene. DFW has seen quite a number of its artists enjoy mainstream success, and continue to grow rappers like Trap and Yayo that continue to elevate the local hip-hop culture of the metroplex.
