    Lol doenst this kind of tie in together. Thinking a certain type of song is top 10 thug and the songs u play the most.
    Or do u mean these are the ones u prefer in this period of time. Meaning this list would be waaaay different in like 2-3 weeks time?

    Anyway i kind of get what u mean but most of the times the songs i think are his best stay in rotation

    bruh he has like 23405t734057134058- songs with 23520598234 styles the ones

    lets say, for example, i think The Promise is one of his best written songs.

    but lets say I have an affinity for the more pop-oriented thug music

    and while that doesn't negate how good The Promise, that would mean I'd be more inclined to listen to a song like Proud of Me more often

    which ultimately would have it ranked higher on a list like this :)

    yeah like i get the questions. and its hard to distinguish between being objective and subjective...but a list like this is always gonna be more of the latter.

    you guys are gonna see some songs towards the top you'd probably personally never put that high

    but who cares

    lol

    30. Proud of Me
    This is one of the best examples there is for Thug's pop sensibility. Reworking Roue 94's "My Love," he spins a euphoric hook that's part anti-snitching PSA, part ode to Gucci. The song itself is entirely a love song though and features some of Thug's more endearing euphemisms. He goes from whispering "take care of that p----, scared to go in it like woods" to doing the hoochie coochie and havin a private party, bently boolin by the end. My favorite bit is definitely:

    I'm losing my voice I can not speak, right, every d--- night
    We get a kick out it like Spike
    Whenever I do not see her she wanna fight
    I just wanna hold her like a mic
    No Tyson, I wont one night, I wanna wife it
    And buy it everything that it desires


    By the end of that passage he's slurring every word into the next in a dizzying fashion and it's just so d--- good.

    Maybe this will still get an official release...almost all versions of it keep getting removed from youtube and s---.

    29. I Just Might
    One of the first Thug songs I ever, like, got addicted to. It was in the top 15 of this list until like 10 mins ago lmao. Im still scrambling to balance nostalgia with the Thug songs I think are irreplaceable to me. Top 30 is just as good as top 15 for Thug anyways so whatever. The sweeping piano for this tarck sets a dramatic backdrop for Thug and, as usual, he raps his alien raps with no care in the world. He just might spend a milli, he just might come out the gambling spot broke today. As long as you never stop, he won't either. And he knows that if he ever takes a trip to China, they'll embrace the lil homie.

    Last but not least, he's an angel in the sky, he looks down drive bys. d---.


    28. Keep it Leave
    Discovering this song was an accident. And now its in my top 30 favorite Thug songs ever. That it self speaks volumes about his discog. I was watching a vlog Metro posted a whiiiile ago where Thug was listening to the I Mean/Live from the Gutter beat and out of nowhere it went into a snippet of this song (which became my avy for a minute). I thought it was only a snippet but a quick youtube search and guess what? It leaked like every other f---ing Thug song ever. It's such a good song dawg.

    Beside the obvious bits like the "metro" call outs or the entire "u dig.....i dig" bit, that little melody for "I don't wanna play unless I'm on a bar" had me playing the song back for like a month straight.

    I don't know where he gets these melodies from.


    27. Red Star
    One of the most underrated leaks and a complete b-----r. He's Michael Jackson's Thriller, you're just a caterpillar. He's a big ol dinosaur, a big ol Red Star like the Texaco, and you're just a midget.

    Here's to hoping him being on tour with TM means we get more 808 Mafia x Thug collabs.


    26. Keep it Going
    I was an advocate for this song since Tha Tour first dropped, but it got overlooked for the longest time. It's a breathtaking how-to-rap clinic that's beyond words to be honest. Every line becomes a quotable, every one of the 100 voices he has finds its home in the surreal beat,

    His diamonds are shinin like corn on the cob and he gets respect whenever he lands in New York like Bobby Shmurda so back the f--- up.

    Also, imagine being Thugs kid. Right before your about to finally fall asleep after a long day of watching blues clues and lion king, your dad bursts into the room, wakes you up with purpose, and gives you some sage advice: I cannot be worried bout no b----. Cuz I know a b---- could be somewhere suckin a d-ck. Ay.
