Generic list post: Unlocking The Swag-Rap edition

Travis Porter may have matured and the Rich Kidz seem to have gone weird, but melodic Atlanta Swag-Rap has been experiencing somewhat of a renaissance over the past 6 months and change. So much so that other regions have got in on the act too amidst the comebacks of Atlanta Swag-Rap pioneers, returns to the sound by former exponents of the sub-genre, and a new generation of rappers for whom Stupid Fruity Crazy Swag wasn't just an OJ Da Juiceman lyric. Here's 12 of the key songs from this current wave to keep us busy until Juney Boomdata stages a comeback.

Roscoe Dash - Shittin' (2014)
J Money & Yung L.A. - 700 Jay'z (2014)
Fetty Wap - Trap Queen (2014)
Fetty Wap - RGF Island (2015)
Young Thug - Pelican Fly (2015)
Lucci - Kno No Better (2014)
Mr.2-17 ft. The Ratchets - This And That (2014)
Mr.2-17 - Marilyn Monroe (2014)
KO The God - Invincible (2014)
OJ Da Juiceman - Whip,Skirt,Aye,Yae (2014)

Roscoe dropped a couple of other tracks recently but they weren't as good as "Shittin'"
