Montana 700 Celebrates His Birthday With A “New Dallas” Banger
“New Dallas” riser Montana 700 is the surging scene’s Picasso of plug talk. Celebrating his breakout year as he turns a year older, the young rapper shares “It’s My Birthday,” a hard-charging and triumphant new single. Featuring the propulsive percussion and classic Southern timbre typical of the “New Dallas” sound, Montana takes stock in all the things that he has to celebrate, but refuses to rest on his laurels:
“Everybody plugs now, yeah that’s what they all say/Make one phone call, walk a million out that Chase,” he spits.
In the video, Montana celebrates with his closest homies, including fellow New Dallas chieftain Zillionaire Doe, taking a caravan of white foreigns to the club and throwing blue faces in the air.
“It’s My Birthday” comes at the culmination of a breakout year for Montana 700, marked by two acclaimed projects and several viral singles. Over the summer, Montana dropped his mixtape, The Greatest of All Traps, home to singles like “Loyalty Is Real” ft. YFN Lucci and “Boosie Flow.” Both songs were among Montana’s best-performing songs to date, with “Loyalty Is Real” reaching the Top 100 of YouTube’s Music Video chart (2.2 million total views) and “Boosie Flow” reaching the Top 20 of YouTube’s Trending Chart for Music (3.2 million views).
Earlier in the year, Montana dropped 700 Reasons, a high-octane tape that put a new twist on the Southern sound. The album featured songs like “Count A Hunnit,” featuring a sample of Jeezy’s “And Then What,” which earned positive attention from Jeezy himself, and “Pipeline (Remix),” his collaboration with BigXThaPlug. Both 700 Reasons and The Greatest Of All Traps are 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.
With even more music to come very soon, Montana 700 prepares to make an impact on a grand scale. Stay tuned for much more.
