  • (1888PressRelease) November 11, 2014 - Nashville, TN - The "Country Rap King" hit the mark with his brand new album Urban Cowboy: Where the City Meets the Country, as his latest single "Last Night in Texas" has the music industry buzzing. Couple a hot song with an electrifying video and you have the formula for garnering tons of new fans and re-energizing current ones. With the help of Zuus Music Television Network, Mikel Knight's new video "Last Night in Texas" will get an existential boost by airing in almost 50 markets across the country, positioning the Texas Bad Boi rapper for a ride up the charts.

    "This is a great opportunity to really enhance Mikel Knight's visibility as an artist and performer it's a big step in the right direction," said Thomi Hairston, executive vice president, 1203 Entertainment. "Zuus is providing us a viable platform to show the world that Urban Country music is officially in the building. This is the beginning of an exciting new era in music and Mikel Knight is the perfect artist to lead the charge."

    "Last Night in Texas" is a wild three and a half minute ride out of Texas as Mikel Knight breaks out of a country jail, engages in riveting car chases, narrowly escapes a grizzly-looking bounty hunter and ultimately crosses the state line unscathed and accompanied by a sexy, ride-or-die chick and a suitcase full of scrilla. Directed by renowned Country music video director, Peter Zavadil, "Last Night in Texas" has all the makings of a modern-day western, sans the horses. Just another gold star for the "on the rise" recording artist going nowhere but up.

    Beginning on November 10, fans across the country can view Mikel Knight's brand new video on the Zuus network and stay connected to the Country Rap King and his crew.
