"Texas" is a song by American rapper BigXthaPlug released in 2022, as the fourth single from his debut studio album Amar (2023). Produced by Aimonmyneck, Blondobeats, and Blazerfxme, the track is considered as one of the first songs that helped BigXthaPlug gain recognition.
In an interview with Complex, BigXthaPlug revealed his initial thoughts about the song: "I actually didn't even like the song at first. I didn't like the beat. It was just something that my team felt would be good, like, 'Hey, this could spark up something'. I believed in them and we did it in and now here we are".[1]

Critical reception
