Generic list post: short song's in the house


EttelThun just dropped a list of 33 legit jams which are short like Curren$y's legs, and it's such a good concept that I'm blatantly biting it for 33 of my own favorites. Rules of this particular parlour game: no songs from Etto's list, no songs longer than 2:30, no beatjacks, no acapellas, no instrumentals/scratch-tracks, no Soundcloud troglodyte fraggle rappers, and no boring Faux Marciano Griselda dullard rappers.

Kingofdasouth, Be Better Than Me, and Long Live Da Game is one Helluva trifecta to close an album.

A submission for this list and a song that really should’ve been on Renaissance Gangster. https://youtu.be/j4bQ__OxfZk
