Hats Off to the Country Rap King! Mikel Knight Releases "Last Night in Texas" Video to Stellar Reviews

Nashville, TN, October 22, 2014 (Newswire.com) - In advance of his highly-anticipated single, "Last Night in Texas", Mikel Knight has released a provocative new music video that has the entertainment industry buzzing.  Known as the Country Rap King, the artist and record label executive has taken Urban Country Music to astronomical heights with his heavy-hitting, Country-laced Hip-Hop that has line dancers boot-scooting from Lumberton to Lubbock.  The immaculately-produced music video directed by Peter Zavadil was filmed and shot across the Lone Star State in honor of its back story, and serves as the lead single from the forthcoming album, Urban Cowboy:  Where the City Meets the Country.

"It feels good to launch the video and receive such great feedback and support," said Mikel Knight. "We worked long hours to make sure the visual experience was as strong as the actual story being told...and I think we achieved that. This single and the video are meant to take you on a wild ride, and from the response from our fans, they're having a ball," Knight continues, "We couldn't do any of this without their support, and we're looking forward to bringing them more hard-hitting, great Urban Country Music!"
