Album Notes

Now, there are new names to add to this impresive list of Lone Star State all starts a six-man unit out of Dallas who call themselves the Dirty South Rydaz. "Dsr is real unique," explains Fat Bastard." Everybody hits the mic with something diffrent. When we all combine it, people be like maaaaan!!!'When you buy a cd and listen to our lyrics, you gone hear something you ain't never heard before. And you can relate to it. "Raised on a staedy musical diet of Geto Boys, UGK, Swishahouse, and the legendary Screwed Up Click, it was inevitable that Fat Bastard would start to rhyme amongst themselves. After a few years of building his confedince, he recorded a demo tape in a "rinky dink studio." Excited by how good he sounded on tape, they took the demo to George Lopez, CEO of T-Town Music, to get his feedback. In 2002, DSR dropped their first album DSR The Album. The record demanded respect in the streets of Dallas. They followed up with there second album Respect It or Check It, Featuring Fat Bastard & Tum Tum which sold over 50,000 records and created a huge buzz for DSR and won them some very important fans. Among this instant fan base was Swisha House's Slim Thug, Chamillionaire, Killer Mike, OG Ron C, and DJ Micheal "5000" Watts, all of whom put some of their songs on their mix tapes, which gave them much needed exposure outside of Dallas. Today, 28 mix tapes and 5 albums later, DSR has become one of the premier rap crews in the South.
