DRUMMA BOY PRODUCER TAG

Who voiced the Drumma Boy tag — and where did it come from?

One of the South's most-quoted tags, and one of its most anonymous: Drumma Boy has said the voice belongs to “one of my goons” — a friend whose shout he kept, uncredited, on a decade of hits.

The command works because it does a tag's whole job in four words: it demands attention, it brands the beat, and it arrives before the drop like a starter pistol.

You've heard it on Young Jeezy's “Put On”, Waka Flocka's “No Hands”, and across T.I.'s Paper Trail era — the sound of late-2000s Atlanta announcing itself.

What songs use the Drumma Boy tag?

• Put On — Young Jeezy ft. Kanye West (2008)
• No Hands — Waka Flocka Flame (2010)
• White Girl — USDA (2007)
