shotting
What does shotting mean?
Street-level drug dealing — running a phone, serving fiends, doing the work. UK drill and road rap built half their lyric sheets on this word. A 'shotter' is the dealer; 'shotting' is the verb for what they do all day.
"He's been shotting since he was 15, finally trying to leave it alone."
