Shawty Lo f. Ludacris, Gucci Mane & The-Dream, “Atlanta, GA” MP3
- story Peter Macia
Atlanta’s had so many solid dedications (+ another million) to its awesomeness that seeing this lineup and having it not be as good as it should’ve been is even tougher than it would’ve been for say, New York. Big Apple rappers make bad songs about this town all the time, but these guys ostensibly represent the top echelon of Atlantans not in the Dungeon Family or locked up and not one of them really shows up. Even Gucci and The-Dream, who lately can fart on the mic and get the club poppin’, contribute throwaways. Oh well, at least they still have some of the finest gentelmen’s clubs in the country.
