Unfortunately, some of my favorite Young Thug mixtapes, Rich Gang's Tha Tour Part 1 and the first two Slime Season tapes, are not on streaming services. But there's still a whole lot of albums and mixtape and EPs and collaborative projects to choose from, more than enough really. A lot of the frustrating things about Young Thug's career that I wrote about in this 2018 Vulture piece have been sorted out now by the success of So Much Fun and it's cool to see him really in the position in the industry that he'd deserved to be in for a long time. A lot of his projects didn't have a proper charting single per se, but he's always made a lot of videos, so I at least avoided songs that didn't have official videos, which still left a fair number of fan favorites and songs with big streaming numbers. 

About 5 years ago I made a playlist of my favorite Young Thug songs produced by London On Da Track, I still really love that combo and there's a few London beats on here ("Numbers," "Tattoos," "Daddy's Birthday," "Climax," "Do U Love Me"). There's also a lot of tracks from the other major producer who launched his career with Thug, Wheezy ("Dome," "Ridin'," "Die Today," "Slam The Door," "Swizz Beatz," "Guwop"). And there's tracks from other MVPs of modern trap like Southside ("Three"), TM88 ("Dead For Real"), Metro Boomin ("Hercules"), Mike Will Made It ("With Them"), and Pi'erre Bourne ("Surf").
