The song is already on the Top 50 homepage playlist but how about geeking out over this visual? Tap in.

Motivating the masses with his soulful Texas trap, Montana 700 makes music for money-getters. The "New Dallas" chieftain proves that fame will never change him in his new music video for "Rap & Trap." Rhyming over dramatic keys and propulsive percussion, the young artist counts hundreds of reasons why he will never leave his block, even if he achieves rap stardom: "Rap and trap, do it at the same time/Oak Cliff n****, handling business on Pine/Sign a major deal, n****, I come from selling dimes," he raps. In the video, directed by Montana himself, the Dallas native packs up a UHaul with product, even as he celebrates the release of his new mixtape and procures a baby gator as a pet.

"Rap & Trap" is a highlight from The Greatest of All Traps, Montana 700's kinetic new mixtape. Home to the single "Boosie Flow," which trended at #17 on YouTube's Trending Charts and generated over 1.4 million views, mixtape continues Montana's trailblazing "New Dallas" movement, which attempts to form a united front in the city, eliminating beef for a shared goal of building a flourishing rap scene. Like Montana's last mixtape, February's 700 Reasons, the new tape provides a fresh spin on classic Southern rap sounds, making trap music that makes you want to move. Featuring appearances from YFN Lucci, Loe Shimmy, Kocky Ka, and Montana's "New Dallas" running mate Zillionaire Doe, The Greatest Of All Traps is available on all platforms via Remain Solid / 300 Entertainment.

Born and raised in South Dallas, Montana 700 is ready to make 2025 his year. He first hit the scene in 2022, making music that combined the twangy and bass-heavy Dallas rap template with broader Southern rap sounds. Along with his close friend and frequent collaborator Zillionaire Doe, Montana 700 is a leader of the New Dallas movement, an effort from the younger generation to stop the violence that has plagued Dallas hip-hop for years, and instead to build a community-focused scene that will allow the whole city to prosper. Montana spoke about the New Dallas scene on a recent episode of Million Dollaz Worth of Game. The rapper broke out in a big way this year with 700 Reasons, Featuring songs like Count A Hunnit," featuring a sample of Jeezy's"And Then What," which earned positive attention from Jeezy himself, and "Pipeline" (Remix), a new version of Montana's local hit featuring BigXThaPlug
