A Salute To Weed Carriers

The first time I heard of Irv Gotti was his production credit for Mic Geronimo’s “Shit’s Real” single, back when he still held his DJ Irv handle. Soon afterwards, Mic G dropped his album on Blunt/TVT, and his labelmates were a group called Cash Money Click, a three-man crew of little talent featuring a kid […]

From their days as the Poetical Prophets all the way up to now, the two little duns from the Q-U have not only released an impressive catalogue ofanti-social street anthems, but have built up a sizable collection of associates to stash the ‘dro for ’em. Havoc paid dues in the early nineties by holding weed […]

While I was thumbing through an old rap magazine, I found this ad for an album called Next Up – Rap’s New Generation, but a more fitting title may have been Stash This – Weed Carriers Rap. The track listing reads like a who’s who of some of rap’s most well-known weed holders.

Masta Killa This guy had to wait over ten years to get his solo out, which indicates that when RZA asked him to carry his stash he was like “Nah, I don’t play that weed carrier shit son!”, immediately relegating his project to the back-burner. You’ve gotta respect that gully attitude though. Even though he’s […]

I don’t know shit about U-God other than the fact that he’s responsible for the worst Wu-Tang song ever (“Black Shampoo”) and used to get locked-up a lot, which explains why his skills were a little rusty on Raekwon’s debut. He also yelled at Meth in The Show, which was one of the few highlights […]

Considering that Method Man seized the spotlight early with his self-titled anthem on the flip of “Protect Ya Neck”, you would be excused for expecting dude to have ammassed an army of weed carriers by now. The only possible weed carriers that spring to mind would be Carlton Fisk and Streetlife, but I’m unable to […]

Since the term “weed carrier” originated and developed almost purely around athletes getting caught with weed at airports, I figured I would point this story out. The National Football League has launched an investigation regarding Vikings running back Onterrio Smith, who was briefly detained late last month at Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport after police found several […]

If you were expecting another Wu installment, you’ll have to wait a little longer (no homo). I’m kinda Wu-ed out at the moment, plus I don’t know shit about what U-God has been up to post-Wu Tang Forever, so a quick change of pace is in order. The Kings of Rock are regarded by many […]

Not content with continuing to push the envelope of lyrical slaughter (check J-Love’s “Come On” – aka the remix to Cormega’s “Tony/Montana” – for proof), Tony Starks has also become quite the weed owner in recent times. While Cappadonna provided full-time weed carrying duties thoughout the Ironman album, it wasn’t long before Ghostface realized that […]

The Chef can rest easy knowing that “Only Built…” is one of the best rap albums ever made, and as a result his weed owner status will never be revoked. Ghostface was on almost every song, but obviously wasn’t holding for Rae. That position was filled by a guy by the name of Cappadonna, who […]
