Weekly Fresh : BigXthaPlug Brings Charm & Realness To His Sophomore Album

Dallas, Texas native BigXthaPlug has stomped into this year with some big expectations. After two successful projects, AMAR and THE BIGGEST, he earned XXL Freshman honors. He joined fellow Texans That Mexican OT and 4batz on that list and it's going to be interesting to see who separates themselves from one another. So far, we may have to give the slight edge to BigXthaPlug, as he arguably has the best project out all of them now with TAKE CARE. This is his sophomore alum, and it's all him. The features are getting tossed out for this one, as BigX is looking to show us what makes him who he is as a person.

One of those is being a dad, as he expressed how much it means to him that he is one with Apple Music. The father of two tells Ebro, "My kids is what drives me. That's the reason when I'm tired and I get up every day when I don't get up, they're the reason." He makes sure to highlight just how much they inspire him on "Therapy Session," an immediate fan favorite. "When I be away from 'em I cry / 'Cause I love 'em the most, I'd hate for them to ever say that their daddy wasn't right on they side." On top of giving fans "The Largest" look behind the curtain, his producers, namely BandPlay, are bringing that Southern charm thanks to some terrific soulful sample usage from all eras.
