"Shoulder Lean" is the first single by Young Dro off of his debut album Best Thang Smokin'. The song was produced by Lil C and features T.I.. It is also notable for its 420 tracklength, an overt marijuana reference. One notable lyric is "Lucky Charm diamonds man, but nah it ain't Flip" a reference to Lil Flip, who T.I. was formerly beefing with. The song has had Billboard top 10 success by reaching number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. It reached number 1 in both the Hot Hip Hop/R&B songs, and the Billboard Rap Tracks. The single has a lot of success on the top 10 show 106 & Park on BET. It managed to make number 1 over a single day and remained on the countdown over 30 days. Digitally it has not reached a as much of a good spot in downloads where it made number 17 and kept slipping, this is the reason it did not climb higher on the Billboard Hot 100. Overall the song managed to get a lot of airplay as it made number 7 on the Hot 100 Airplay. It was performed alongside T.I. at the 2006 MTV Video Music Awards. MJG, Slim Thug, DJ Khaled, Diddy, and Parlae of Dem Franchize Boyz made cameo appearances in the video. The beginning of the video was inspired by Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg Nuthin but a G Thing video intro.
