Hustle Town or Hustletown (Houston nickname)

“Hustle Town” (or “Hustletown”) is a nickname for the city of Houston. There was a night club (ca. 2000) called Hustle Town in Houston. The nickname “Hustle Town” is one of several Houston nicknames used in hip-hop, including “H-Town” and “Screwston.”
 
South Park Mexican (Carlos Coy) released an album called Hustle Town in 1998, and he either invented or (at least) popularized the nickname.

South Park Mexican Lyrics
“Hustle Town”
[SPM talking]
Eh he he he he
Hustle Town my city maan!
Born and raised baby
Yo I dedicate this jam to all the single mothers
Raisin’ men in a big city
I know it’s hard
Let ‘em know what’s up Filero
(...)
[Chorus: SPM]
Hustle Town Hustle Town
The city of dreams
Where we creep through the hood
And we serve them dope fiends
Hustle Town
The shit don’t stop
Roll rental cars
And we keep the glock cocked

Austin Chronicle (September 5, 2003)
Fresh, who’s worked at 3rd Coast about a month, says it’s the slo-mo, syrup-fed sounds of Houston (aka “Screwston,” “Hustle Town”) that rev his customers’ engines.
