Since then, using the #Ednasboys hashtag, the rapper has been tweeting links to YouTube videos of the 50 songs he chose in a tribute to his grandma. A list of numbers 50-21 on his countdown was posted on his website today, including Bob Marley, Drake, Phoenix, Feist, Led Zeppelin and others, and he’s begun tweeting the top 20.

Coming in at #19 on Big Boi’s list was the Grateful Dead’s Touch of Grey, which we’ve embedded below in honor Ms. Kearse.

Big Boi is currently continuing to reveal the rest of his list on his Twitter account.
