Video: Wacotron – “Let Me Find Out”
The 808-Mafia Affiliated Texas Rapper Proves He Has The Streets of Waco On Lock In The Latest Video Off Out The Blue
Critical Praise:
“Overtop booming 808s, Wacotron’s laid-back charisma commands attention.” – DJ Booth
“808 Mafia-affiliated and dedicated to the art of rhyming as much as he is to making undeniable bangers, Texas native WacoTron wears his allegiance to his hometown on his sleeve.” – UPROXX
“His flows are impressive and seem to naturally roll off of his tongue which shows off his masterful outlook and impressive aptitudes despite his relatively new entrance into the music scene.” – Lyrical Lemonade
“Southside protege Wacotron is a new-ish name, but he sounds like he’s been doing this for years, balancing simplicity, interiority, and the confidence of an established vet.” – UPROXX
The Video:
Wacotron is making waves in Texas and beyond with his sharp lyricism and clever wordplay. Putting his strikingly honest street raps on full-display, the Lone Star State trapper shares the visual for “Let Me Find Out.”
A highlight from Waco’s November mixtape Out the Blue, “Let Me Find Out” is a shining example of the street veteran’s lyrical prowess. On top of a dark and bass-heavy instrumental, he makes it clear that the opps can’t hide anything from him, no matter how hard they try. In the DJ Black Messiah-directed video, Waco and his trusty guard dogs stand ready for anyone who tries to cross them, warning, “Play with me it make the news.”
“Let Me Find Out” is Wacotron’s first new video since releasing Out The Blue, the highly-anticipated follow-up mixtape to his critically acclaimed 2021 project Smokin Texas. Highlighted by heavy trap production from Southside & 808 Mafia, among others, the 11-track effort establishes Wacotron’s status as the man in his city. On tracks like the lead single “Game Time,” he shares harrowing tales about life on the streets of Waco, weaving pearls of street wisdom and sly turns-of-phrase.
With Out The Blue, Wacotron plans to build on the success of his debut 2021 mixtape Smokin’ Texas, which received praise from Complex, HipHopDX, DJ Booth, and more. He hasn’t been entirely quiet over the past year, though, as he’s made waves in the rap game with singles like “Raw” and “Free Mason” (each with over 4 million streams on Spotify). The Waco, TX native has been an ambassador for central Texas rap, working alongside other Waco risers and boosting their careers while he becomes a star in his own right.
With the release of his sophomore project Out The Blue, Wacotron proves he’s an artist to watch in the bustling Texas scene. Stay tuned for much more from the young rapper in the near future.

The Background:
A native of Waco, TX–hence his name–Wacotron showed a passion for music from a young age, absorbing the 808-driven trap music he listened to in the car with his dad. After spending years mired in the struggle, Wacotron turned to rap in his 20’s, searching for a better way to provide for his family and escape his circumstances. The rapper started to build a reputation in his home state, eventually catching the attention of Pick Six Records, who signed him to a deal and connected him with Southside and 808 Mafia. He released his debut project Smokin’ Texas in April 2021.
With the weight of the influential 808 Mafia behind him, Wacotron is in prime position to make his mark on the rap game in 2022 and beyond.
