The Heart of Rock n Roll by Huey Lewis rattles off a dozen or so of cities across America, but surprisingly Baton Rouge is one of them.

Not mainstream music popular, but Texas music scene popular ....

Only song I can think of is O.G. by Tech N9ne, but I wouldn't really call that a popular hit song

The video for "Only Wanna Be With You" shows the Gamecocks getting our asses cut in basketball throughout the video. Does that count?
