The time has come again for me to share the top five crunk
tracks getting heavy rotation on my iPod. If you like Lil' Jon or the
Ying Yang Twinz but don't know what else from the dirty south might
tickle your fancy, try some of these tracks.
- Grillz - Nelly feat. Paul Wall & St. Lunatics
- What U Drankin' On - Jim Jones feat. P.Diddy, Paul Wall & Jha' Jha
- Stay Fly - Three Six Mafia feat. Young Buck, Eightball & MJG
- Stay Fly (Still Fly Remix) - Three Six Mafia feat. Slim Thug, Trick Daddy & Project Pat
- Turn It Up - Chamillionaire feat. Lil Flip
During the intro for Three Six Mafia's Most Known Unknown,
they complain that they influenced a lot of what is popular in hip hop
today but don't get the credit. These seems very true to me. I remember
listening to tracks like Tear the Club Up and Hit a Muthafucka back in the late '90s in Atlanta before any of the ATL rappers really became hot down south. I'd definitely recommend the Most Known Unknown Hits to any fan of the genre.
PS: I don't like D4L's Laffy Taffy
but it is the first song that I've seen have about a dozen people doing
synchronized dance steps in a club. So it gets an honorary mention.
