    We're talking about the same Wanna be me right? Where he's mumbling in auto tune about f---ing rabbits and havin carats? Lmao

    That's all I meant by "close minded people" -- wanna be me is a really out there song even by thugs standards

    Sheeesh yeah man ur almost a year late -- it was part of the massive leaks last year. I remember my friend and I dying when we first heard it...just staring at the speakers like "wtff music can sound THIS weird and still be amazing??" because it started w the "imma ride in that p---- like a stroller" line :'(

    I'll try to find u a link when I'm not on my phone, I've uploaded it before

    Enjoy..I thought this was better than the final version for a long time. But the latter has grown on me a lot over the past year

    that's not even the point, his melody flows too well with london's production

    definitely, definitely top 5 on ss1

    No order

    Freaky, calling your name, that's all, no way, wanna be me

    Yeah I guess it is hahaha

    It's definitely one of the most unique hip hop songs I've ever heard

    It's like what Kanye and Wayne wish they could've done w auto tune lol

    But on that note, I heard freaky calling ur name and that's all just as much when they first leaked -- but their quality is just too good for me not to put them in a top 5

    I could definitely get down with this. Would like an actual collab between them as well though. I'd love a song with thug rappin and a rocket man sample and a sing with both contributing new material. The collab is goat potential

    Not a big fan of Wayne's Christina Millian tribute of a verse in Take Kare, can't w8 till Thug and Wayne are inevitably friends and frequent collaborators (in person) and Birdman is dead

    There were 60+ leaked tracks mannnnn

    I "discovered" drawn down same time as pass me the lighter. Both are so good. Pass me the lighter ended up on a Duke project last year and everyone's still sleeping on it :emoji_slight_frown:


    There are STILL lowkey leaks that I'm playing now, now that the bigger ones have all been on projects/gotten played out.

    One specific one is called "That" -- Idk if u peeped my Hitunes thread from yesterday but I made my version of hitunes using just the unreleased leaks that are left. It's fire


    Myself, dripset, get that money, that, red star etc

    Still so many great joints left

    link to pass the lighter?

    imo "mine" & "that's all" are heavily slept on.

    still need to download the hitunes joint you upped

    That's what I've always said re thug. There's probably more of his catalogue I hate but the parts I do I love due to how broad he branches out style-wise/musically. I hate a lot of the most common favourites like Best Friend tbh however I'm obsessed with good times

    Well like most leaks this is a rough mix. I think the one on dukes tape might be better but I'm not sure

    And the tag at the start says Wheezy

    He's like right behind London as a favorite thug collaborator for me
