Good afternoon stayondecker's! Like I said on my previous post I've been very ill. I've been in and out of my physician's office for a simple cough that has just turned out-right nasty now: Scratchy throat, chest pains, dry coughs, and fevers. Lately I've been feeling better. They downed my dosage and now I'm on my way to recovery. That medication did wonders instantly! Intrigued by its instant effect I simply decided to google it to see what exactly it is. I simply typed in "Promethazine Codeine" and my search results were unbelieveable. Before I can even see any medical facts or any Rx pages, a ridiculous amount of pictures of Lil' Wayne and Pimp C came out holding their styrofoam cups. Call me naive but every time I've seen Wayne holding that cup I've just assumed he's a very thirsty person. I did my research on this so called drink which they call "Lean, Drank, Purple Drank, Sizzurp, Barre". It seems that this is a Houston movement. It originated in Houston. It seems that in Houston(and apparently now the whole U.S.) abuse the cough syrup Promethazine/Codeine to get a high off of it. Apparently, this was responsible for Pimp C's and DJ Screw's death. After the autopsy, the coroner concluded that Pimp C's death was due to sleep apnea. True, but if you do your research you can see Promethazine contributes to sleep apnea. Here's another thing: Former San Diego Chargers free safety, Terrence Kiel, was arrested in September 2006 because he tried to ship a numerous amount of Prometh/Codeine to his friend in Texas. Early this year, Terrence died in a car crash when coming back from a teammate's 4th of July party. When the autopsy came back for him he apparently died from mechanical asphyxia....another side effect of Prometh. Am I really the only person that caught this?!?!?! I'm not here to be someone's mother. Im not here to tell you how to live. Im not here to offended anybody's ways. Im not here to veer off the music subject. I just really want to get some info out there: I personally do not want to see some off the industry's favorites die(or anybody for that matter) because of something so stupid. Drug abuse is extremely dangerous. We really should think about what we do and what we induce into our bodies. Thanks for reading my rant stayondecker's.
Lil Wayne has TWELVE nominations this year at the 2008 BET Hip-Hop Awards. We all know that his album Tha Carter III made a lot of money. His song "Lollipop" has been nominated for video of the year. That is sad that Static Major didn't get a chance to see how successful that song was. R.I.P Static!! Anyway, Tha Carter was a cool album, but it could have been way better. Kanye also got a lot of nominations with seven. The show will be hosted by funny man Katt Williams. The show should be good! It will air on October 23, 2008. Check your local listings for the time.
This is David Banner's new video "Shawty Say" Featuring Lil' Wayne. The song features a Lil' Wayne sample from "Lollipop." I don't know what it is about this song, but I kinda like it. Maybe it's because it makes me wanna dance! Haha! Let me know what you think.
It seems that Lil' Wayne has the copyright police after his ass. The company that owns the rights to the song that samples The Rolling Stones, says that he released an altered version of the song without permission. In one example, the lawsuit said a lyric from the Stones song is "But don't play with me, 'cause you're playing with fire," and the Lil Wayne version has the line, "But you can't blame me if I set this stage on fire." Let this be a note to you samplers.....if you sample, if you don't want to pay later, make sure that it's not recognizable!!!! Listen to the song here
After 5 weeks of being at the #1 spot on The Billboard 200, Lil' Wayne must now move down to the number 2 spot after selling only 105,000 copies last week. Nas took the top spot with 187,000. You can hate on Weezy F Baby all you want, but the man is selling records in the age where not even Jay-Z can go platinum right out the box.
