Paul Wall Disputes Master P’s Claims That Syrup Is “Killing This Generation,” Says Houston’s Culture Is Being Killed

By: Jake CratesCategory: News

(AllHipHop News) In a candid interview with Yo Gotti’s DJ, DJ Smallz, Houston rapper Paul Wall responded to a comment Master P stated in an interview with Power 105’s the Breakfast Club saying,”Everybody getting high now, the syrup is killing the whole, this generation.” Paul has always been a proponent of the purple sprite drink over the years even most recently titling a track on his slabgod project,  “Muddy Cups On Sunset.” As it is, the Houston rapper says, “he doesn’t know anyone personally that has died” from syrup. “Of course I love Master P,  I got nothing but respect for Master P, but it might be killing the generation theoretically, but it’s not sending people to the graveyard.   I personally don’t know not one person in my whole life who has ever died as a result of sippin’ syrup,” Paul Wall said in defense of the popular drug. Tragically the legendary DJ Screw, Big Moe and the late great Pimp C all reportedly succumbed to lethal dosages of the potion, though Paul Wall clearly disputed that fact, blaming their deaths on lifestyle choices. Codeine, which is an opiate, know to produce a feelings of said euphoria, while the cough syrup also contains a drug called promethazine, which acts as a sedative.   “They might have syrup in they body when they die, but that don’t kill ’em,” Paul Wall continued. “Now poppin’ pills, handlebars, them handlebars be sending people to the grave. Shooting heroin up that’s sending people to the grave. You know that flocka, that’s sending people to the grave. Alcohol is sending people to the grave.  200 million people die off some crazy sht from cigarettes, that’s sending people to the grave. Obesity, not eating properly, drinking sodas, eating all this s### with corn starch, and corn syrup in it. Not real sugar, not real products, all these man-made products, that’s the sht that’s sending people to the grave.” Recently Obama declared war on prescription drugs at a conference in Atlanta combatting drug abuse. “It’s important to recognize today, that we are seeing more people killed because of opioid overdoses than traffic accidents,” President Barack Obama explained. A host of rappers have had public battles with their use of lean including Lil Wayne, most recently Future, and Boosie who said that the deadly concoction “almost killed him 3 or 4 times.” The promethazine and codeine concoction was famously popularized by DJ Screw with his “chopped and screwed” style of music and his S.U.C. (Screwed Up Click) group of rappers. “Now the whole entire world is walking around with double white cups and they pourin’ up fake syrup, they don’t even know what they drinkin’ they just want to say they sippin’ some syrup. But they killing our culture down here man, that’s what’s being killed, our culture down here man,” a frustrated Paul Wall said. Paul also denounced the signature double styrofoam cups seen in the hands of rappers across the game. “For the record, we don’t sip double cups in Houston no more man, the police is not stupid. You ridin’ around with a double cup, they taking you to jail, they pulling you over, so we don’t sip no double cups no more, unless you want to go to jail or unless you being corny and want everyone to know you sippin’ syrup.” Check out the full interview below: 

Breeding Ground – Marcus Manchild: A Manchild Among Rappers

By: SeandrasimsCategory: Breeding Ground

The city of purple Sprite and “chopped and screwed” music has long been a staple for providing the South with some of the best country fried music in Hip-Hop. With legends like UGK, DJ Screw, Scarface, Slim Thug, Z-Ro, Trae tha Truth, Mike “5000” Watts, Paul Wall, and many others, Houston doesn’t come up short in the star power category. It’s where Jas Prince, son of J Prince, found Drake. It’s where the legendary DJ Screw dropped his first mixtapes and established a home for Texas hip-hop. But times have changed, and the sounds kids like – in Houston and beyond – are different. Enter the next big star – Marcus Manchild. Signed to AMG, the label that recently brought Hip-Hop fans Killa Kyleon, this young, up and coming wordsmith can flip his words like some of the best from the Midwest, but also maintains the Southern swag ever present in music from Atlanta to Houston. Bouncing from strip club to strip club, and now signed up for The Smokers Club Tour with Big KRIT, Curren$y, Smoke DZA, Method Man, and several others, Marcus is certified as one of the next in line to take the reigns of rap. Take a look at AllHipHop.com’s exclusive sit down with one of the game’s rising stars, who has made a name for himself not only amongst the slow moving listeners of the city of Houston, but also amongst Hip-Hop fans nationwide. Marcus Manchild: Chillin, chillin man… in the studio, mannnn… AllHipHop.com: Word… We heard you’ve been making a little, or should I say a lot of, noise down there, actually. Just wanted to catch up with you and talk with you man… Marcus Manchild: Oh man, I appreciate it. We just got done working on the Preseason 2 right now, so we just pushing that, getting all these virals poppin’, and making sure things pop off the right way. I hope you’ve been hearing good things about me. man! AllHipHop.com: Oh yea we’ve been paying attention since back when “Red and Yellow” joint came out, that “Black and Yellow” remix. I know Nate over there at AMG has been putting in work for a while. Recently, that Travis Porter and Big KRIT one was dope and has everyone buzzing. How did that single come together? Marcus Manchild: That’s really my single. I mean, really, we didn’t really put it out as a single at first; we just put it out on Twitter. But we just kind of leaked it on Twitter, the fans picked it, and it’s what they wanted to hear from me, so we put it out on Twitter and they were like, “It’s hot, hot, hot.” So, we were like, let’s run with it, but some of my people got in touch with Travis Porter’s people and some people got in touch with KRIT and Dutch. That was actually the first song they done ever did together. so they were both excited to do the track. That sh*t just came out right, we all from the South…that sh*t gonna go. AllHipHop.com: Obviously, with the AMG label, the work they did with Killa, and now you, everything is looking real nice right now. How is that AMG machine working out for your business? Marcus Manchild: It helps, because we are just like a family, and we are like brothers, and they gonna be hard on me because I am the youngest. But, it also helps they are developing me before I hit a major label. We are independent, but we move like a major label machine. Being in the clubs, the only thing I didn’t get was the colleges, and now we are going back on that. But they just helped me promote myself out here in Houston and on the Internet. They taught me everything about music before I got a name out here and everything. If it wasn’t for them, there wouldn’t be no Marcus Manchild. AllHipHop.com: Right. Now, about the name “Manchild” – why are you a “Manchild?” Marcus Manchild: I feel like just a young dude that’s done done a lot, and I knew that question was going to come up, but I mean the Manchild name is just a young person who does stuff out of the ordinary or other young people. I think a lot of these young people don’t get to move around. I’m not no lyrical person, I can’t say that, and I try to show them some versatility. Me, as a young person with the maturity and understanding of the game, that is a “manchild.” That’s the name, and I just stuck with it. At first, it was corny, but I was like hell naw, I gotta keep that man. AllHipHop.com: Who taught you about rapping and about the game? Marcus Manchild: My cousins really put me up on rapping, but really when I got with AMG Boss, George, and Chad, they were real hard on me. Everything I was doing was wrong because I was just rapping. I was like, “I’m gonna just go rap,” and they were like, “Nah you gotta find your lane and do this, and that.” Them being strict on me prepared me for what I need to know when I come out and, now people are like, “Ohhhhh, that’s Marcus Manchild” AllHipHop.com: So, what do you need to do to take things to that next level, based on what the guys are telling you? Marcus Manchild: Work hard everyday, going to the studio everyday, reaching out to fans on Twitter, staying in touch with the fans, I’m trying to get this going. Get up training in the morning, shouting out my friends and fans on Twitter. Just keep going and keep going and make music that the fans who are listening to me want to hear. AllHipHop.com: Can you describe your relationship with Killa Kyleon? Marcus Manchild: Yeah, I mean, me and Killa, we cool. He’s part of the AMG fam, but he is just […]
