“Ayy, where he is? Point him out / Throw his bitch ass in the trunk, take him to the South.” Rapper That Mexican OT didn’t come to mess around on his single, “Point Em Out”. He is turnt up early on in the chorus of the song, which is both catchy and unapologetic.  Backed by mean-sounding production by Bankroll Got It and 88nck, That Mexican OT also enlists controversial Grammy-nominated rapper, DaBaby for the assist.  The result is a brief but potent banger.
