Shut up. You like wack South music. Go listen to some UGK, Outkast, Goodie Mob, TI, Clipse, etc.

Anyway... Let's take it back to 2003... that was a good year. The last year that the East Coast dominated rap (some South of the era included as well)

Right. It's a Southern thing.

Are you being sarcastic?

It is... everyone of those rap songs I just posted is by a Southern rapper, usually from Texas.

It originated in Houston and spread like wildfire through the South popularized by Southern rappers.

This started it... 2000:



Three 6 Mafia is from Tennessee or something but that song is featuring UGK (Port Arthur, Texas)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sizzurp

Purple drank is a slang term for a recreational drug popular in the hip hop community in the southern United States. Its main ingredient is prescription-strength cough syrup containing codeine and promethazine.[1] Cough syrup is typically mixed with ingredients such as 7Up soft drink and pieces of Jolly Rancher candy. The purplish hue of purple drank comes from dyes in the cough syrup.

There are numerous slang terms for purple drank, including sizzurp,[2][3][4][5][6] lean,[1][3][4][7] syrup,[3][5][8] drank,[5][9] barre,[5] purple jelly,[4][5] and Texas tea.[9]

Houston, Texas producer DJ Screw popularized the concoction, which is widely attributed as a source of inspiration for the "chopped and screwed" style of hip hop music.[3][10] Originally, the active ingredient of "syrup" was cough syrup containing promethazine and codeine. The concoction first gained popularity in the underground rap scene in Houston,[10] where musician Big Hawk said it was consumed as early as the 1960s and 1970s, becoming more widespread in the early 1990s.[11] Its use later spread to other southern states.[3]

In June 2000, Three 6 Mafia's single "Sippin' on Some Syrup," featuring UGK, brought the term "purple drank" to a nationwide audience.[2]

In 2004, the University of Texas found that 8.3% of secondary school students in Texas had taken codeine syrup to get high.[3] The Drug Enforcement Administration reports "busts" involving syrup across the southern United States, particularly in Texas and Florida.[3]

LIKE I SAID, IT'S A TEXAS THING, SLOWW!
