Label: D4L/Asylum
Producer: Balis Beats, Born Immaculate
After "Laffy Taffy" stereotyped D4L as poster boys of snap music, Shawty Lo jumped out decisively on the trap music side of Atlanta rap with "Dey Know," an anthem so hot that pretty much every dope boy in the industry had to jump on the remix. From Luda's over-the-top delivery to Jeezy's catchy twist on Shawty Lo's flow, Lil Wayne's early experiment with AutoTune, and even Plies in good form, the track ended up sounding like a tour through what Southern rap sounded like in 2008.
