Rapper and artist Tay Toe has unveiled his latest single, Iron Horse, an emotionally charged anthem created in honor of his best friend, professional MMA fighter, boxer, and UFC prospect Justin Horsley.
Iron Horse serves as Justin’s official walkout song, set to energize and inspire as he steps into the ring. The track will debut at Justin’s upcoming fight on Saturday, November 16th, at the Mountain America Center in Idaho Falls, Idaho, where he will compete before a large crowd of supporters.
Reflecting on their 15-year friendship, which began as varsity wrestling teammates at Bountiful High School, Tay Toe said: “It was an honor to make a walkout song for my best friend. I hope it gives him the strength and courage to win all of his fights.”
The song captures Justin’s journey as a fighter and coach, celebrating his resilience and the inspiration he brings to the community through his work with young wrestlers and MMA trainees. One particularly heartfelt lyric references Justin’s late mother, highlighting the depth of their connection: “Spread your wings, fly high, Momma knows I’m gonna make.”
Tay Toe’s music is renowned for its authenticity, blending melodic tones with fearless vulnerability. The Los Angeles-born artist began his journey at just fifteen years old, crafting tracks that reflect his personal struggles and triumphs. His ability to channel emotion and integrity into contemporary hip-hop is a hallmark of his artistry, as seen in his acclaimed 2022 album Habits and Setbacks.
With Iron Horse, Tay Toe continues to deliver compelling performances and inspiring narratives, solidifying his reputation as a voice for perseverance and passion in the hip-hop community.
