Subject: Lil Wayne Clings to Life

Written By: LyricBoy on 03/16/13 at 2:39 am

News accounts are reporting that rapper Little Wayne is clinging to life in a hospital.

Reportedly he was binging on Sizzurp which caused seizures. Docs pumped his stomach 3 times.

Wayne has often rapped about Sizzurp, such as his 2008 hit entitled "My Drank". He has been photographed sipping the purple stuff from a doubled-up styrofoam cup.  8-P

That's good news. Earlier it was being reported that he was being administered extreme unction. 

Boys and girls.... Stay away from the Sizzurp!  8-P

Sizzurp is a mix of prescription-strength cough syrup (with codeine) and soda. Sometimes they grind up hard candies (Jolly Ranchers are preferred) and throw 'em in for more flavor, and they sometimes grind up prescription painkillers too. Vodka is often added to the mix.

It allegedly was invented in the Houston area, and is also referred to as "Texas Tea".  ::)

I'm not sure why they use a doubled up foam cup, though.

DJ Screw, Big Moe, and Pimp C... all rappers... met their end by excessive use of the Purple Drank.

Apparently the addition of vodka to this mix can really mess you up.

Heck, there are people out there who huff Jenkem fumes, so anything is game these days.

Thanks. And yup, I know who Drake is.  He's one of those artists that make my mute button work effectively.

Apparently it is the rage in many rap circles.

Not too long ago, Justin Beiber was also reportedly hitting the Texas Tea.  8-P

Us Magazine is reportung that Wayne is not close to death, but that he definitely drank too much sizzurp.

Apparently he is addicted to the concoction, as the story quotes a source as saying that Wayne needs rehab.

Lil Wayne is a big piece of sheesh, he dissed his own daughter for her darker complexion and in one of his songs he has a line disrespecting Emment Till(a black boy who was lynched in 1995), the lyric "beat that pussy up like Emmett Till" ). fudge em!  >:(

It made me kinda drunk and sleepy. 

Unfortunately, you needed a scrip to get to the codeine stuff!

Back in the day you could get Vicks Formula 44-D with Codeine over the counter. But they didn't have Jolly Ranchers back then, so you could not really make the authentic Purple Drank.

I likes my ladies like I likes my Vicks: 44-D! 

I can understand the Vodka, the painkillers, and the codeine syrup (though we used to do those a la carte), but the milled Jolly Ranchers reveals a voracious appetite for self-destruction!

Here is something you can use when you're prepping your J.R.'s for freebase!
