"I'm your momma, I'm your daddy
I'm that nigga in the alley
I'm your doctor when in need
Want some coke, have some weed
You know me, I'm your friend
Your main boy, thick and thin
I'm your pusherman..."
Drugs and music....I feel as though they go hand in hand. And this isn't a recent revelation.....artists have been doing drugs since there have been artists. But the question I have is without the drugs and the pain would the music be that good. Lil' wayne is a cokehead apparently and I can honestly say that Lil'weezy who laid a verse on back that thang up is NOT the same Weezy that has a verse on almost every song on the radio like "Pop Bottles" or "I Feel Like Dying." Is it the COCAINE? Even though many people aren't aware of the fact but Robin Thicke had a CD out before the Evolution of Robin Thicke, the first album was entitled A Beautiful World and it didn't do nearly as well as....now I heard that Robin ALSO has an infatuation with cocaine and the Evolution...was THE TRUTH (ALBUM WAS FIRE). Is it the COCAINE? Shitney Spears....LAWD LAWD LAWD....I don't know what Shitney is on BUT whatever it is.....IT'S GOOD....b/c Blackout is Mo Fiyah, not even playin! Is it the COCAINE? I don't like Beyonce'...I really don't but B'Day was good and I really didn't care for the previous album....now the drug that she's on not only stepped her sophomore album up, it stepped up her fashion game and her track game (lace joints are on P)....her drug of choice you ask? Rich Dick...aka Jigga Jigga that Nigga Jigga. That is SERIOUS! There are so many more coke fiends out there but these stick out the most so I ask you AGAIN.....IS IT THE COCAINE???
Is it the COCAINE?

agreed. the cocaine is nuts. in the words of the late rick james, "cocaine is a hell of a drug."
i really liked shitney's blackout album. i blame it on the mixing though. she collaborated on the writing process of relatively few songs on the album. she's just the industry's puppet at this point. she has lost all control.
my brother made me listen to 'i feel like dying.' i liked it. things have gotten ridiculous though. the drugs in the music and movie industry are way out of control. if lesser jobs require drug testing, so should theirs.
i would really like to hear your take on the drug testing in the film industry situation.
yea i think that its the coke...but o well as long as they keep makin good music i dont...matter fact im on coke right now....woooooooooooooooo
lets not forget amy winehouse! cuz whatever the fuck she was smoking created a good ass album.
let me listen to just friends right now for the record.
damn i need to find my drug of choice too. I think its money! lol
OKAY now here’s a subject i know a lil something about...(side note...t.bell lool why r u so stupid lol) but back to the subject at hand...the server drug use in the entertainment industry IS NOT NEW by any means. Movie stars since the silent black and white films of the 1920s were strung out on drugs. if we want to take it all the way back then please look at the all of the GREAT jazz musicians and artist of the late 19th century. Charlie Parker, Fats Wallace, Count Basie, Miles Davis, Billie Holiday, Louie Armstrong, Dorothy Dandridge, and Thelonious Monk all impacted music and really helped to define the music of American. The history and the textbooks will prove that for so long the US didn’t have its own identifiable style of music until jazz hit the scene. Not just to make it seem like drug use was an epidemic with just blacks artist however, one must also reference Paul Whiteman, Bud Powell, and Bill Evans were heavy influences in West coast jazz ie “cool jazz” and heavy users. I would also consider Beethoven, Mozart, and Bach b/c they had addictions of their own ie. Alcoholism. Now…I will say this…these people that use have the ability to see the world in a completely different perspective which just so happen to produced some out of the ordinary sounds, rhythms, lyrics, and styles that are LIKE THAT!! I mean what can I say their music is phenomenal!
