Today, we are celebrating the legacy of one of hip-hop's most infectious figures. Known as "Club God," Beatking was more than just a rapper; he was a trailblazing artist who kept us on our feet by crafting the perfect party anthems that added vibes to any function.

Born Justin Riley, Beatking surprised the Southern music scene. The Houston native's musical journey began in 2005, and by 2014, he was full speed ahead with his club bangers. As far as his catalog, Beatking's hit list is filled with tracks that continue to excite the crowds. Songs like "Throw That Ahh," "U Ain't Bout That Life," and "Then Leave" became local staples with catchy hooks and energetic beats. His ability to combine provocative lyrics with infectious sounds set him apart from others.

More than just a hitmaker, Beatking became a voice for his community. His unapologetic authenticity resonated with his listeners, who adored that he was a millionaire who stayed true to his roots. Although his life ended abruptly on August 15th, 2024, Beatking's influence is still felt throughout his music and the artists he has inspired.

As we celebrate his 40th birthday, let us remember the joy he brought to the world. His music wasn't just about turning up; it was about creating memories with people we'll never forget. Today, we raise our glass and enjoy Sunday Funday in memory of Club Godzilla.
