Awesome Picture of Cowboy Troy Goes Here............
Welcome to the emergent era of “hick-hop.” Troy Coleman, aka Cowboy Troy, burst onto the country muzik fan’s consciousness with the multi-lingual breakdown in the middle of “Rollin’ (The Ballad of Big & Rich)”, the opening track to platinum-selling label mates Big & Rich’s 2004 release Horse of A Different Color. But the University of Texas grad is certainly no novice when it comes to electrifying a crowd.
