Throwing it back to Gucci Mane's "Photoshoot" from 2009.

Gucci Mane just brought together everyone from Daz Dillinger to Jadakiss for his new Trapology tape, so now seemed like a better time than ever to reminisce on his legendary career. For this week's throwback track, we've chosen the Drumma Boy-produced "Photoshoot," included on The State Vs. Radric Davis as a bonus track. 

For a few years there, you'd be hard pressed to find a more potent team than Gucci and Drumma, whose collabs always felt tailor-made for each other. This one's particularly great, thanks to a minimal, undeniably catchy beat and a Gucci devoting a whole verse to Southern rap history.

If you've never heard it, be sure to scope Flying Lotus' excellent remix of "Photoshoot."

Quotable Lyrics

Back to back in Hummers so it's ten times
Double wide, 30 inches on you guys
UGK my favorite group for years been riding with them guys
8 ball told 'em lay it down and I did that 'bout 30 times
