bando
An abandoned house, especially one used for trapping.
Definitions
An abandoned house. In Atlanta hip-hop it specifically means an empty property taken over as a base for selling drugs — the cheaper, more disposable cousin of a trap house.
By extension, any run-down spot where the crew posts up — doesn't have to be drug-related anymore, just a derelict hangout.
