Here&#8217;s to the ones with &#8220;weed inside they pussies with they minds on the finer things in life\/Props is a true thug&#8217;s wife.&#8221; Yeah, yeah, you know: &#8220;a few bitches who fucked dreads, on Sudafed, pussies hurtin&#8217;, they did it for a yard for the feds&#8221;. Rockin&#8217; &#8211; not lots of ice &#8211; but &#8220;four finger rings, and gold teeth, and ain&#8217;t afraid to hold&#8221; weed.<\/p>\n<p>It might go back to the days of the Juice Crew. Many have pondered as to how\/why Marley Marl recruited a teenage Roxanne Shante into the crew at such a tender young age. For someone (presumably) named after Marley &#8211; Bob Marley &#8211; weed ownin&#8217; was most likely right up there with making funky music &#8211; a must. MC Shan, Craig G., and all the cats rockin with the Juice Crew were easy targets for a bust, right? But not young Lolita Golden a\/k\/a Roxanne Shante.  She could freestyle all day, cold get retarded with Biz, and all the while have a couple of ounces stashed away for good measure, unbeknownst to the D&#8217;s. She built a bridge for the queens of weed holdin&#8217; that came after her.<\/p>\n<p>Think about it. Every new-school crew worth it&#8217;s salt has a &#8220;first lady&#8221; right? Eve &#8211; the first lady of Ruff Riders. When Jada and Holiday Styles said &#8220;I need a ride or die bitch&#8221; they basically were on some &#8220;damn, I really need a nice-lookin\u00e2\u20ac\u0161 female w\/c right about no&#8221; shit. Lil Kim started out as a weed carrier with the M.A.F.I.A. Funny, because she modeled herself after one of Brooklyn&#8217;s most O.G. bitches and a sho&#8217; nuff weed owner, the original Queen Bee. Queen Bee used to rock flashy neon-colored wigs with matching fur coats, so she was obviously on some w\/o shit. But Lil Kim, the Junior Queen Bee, she loved her some B.I.G. and wasn&#8217;t ashamed to find 100 ways to stuff a couple O&#8217;s up her scantily-clad coochie to prove it.<\/p>\n<p>Now, one w\/c comes to mind who really would have been an owner if gender bias didn&#8217;t run shit. That would be none other than the first lady of the Flipmode Squad, yeah man, I&#8217;m talking &#8217;bout Rah Digga. First of all, her babydaddy&#8217;s her w\/c &#8211; Young Zee &#8211; so there that go.  Then, she damn near dope as Bussa Bus but gotta carry for him? It&#8217;s gotta hurt. Then, just because she&#8217;s Rahshida and not Rahquan, she gotta hold for this hypeman-ass Spliff Star kid too?! Pure fuckery, I tell you.<\/p>\n<p>But see, the point of this thing is that there&#8217;s even some feminism in the owning\/carrying dichotomy. There are some strong women holding it down &#8211; I mean their man&#8217;s holding it (on the down low). Their weed, that is. I give you Kelis, who&#8217;s definitely the w\/o of her house.  Take young Beyonce, who &#8211; heaven forbid &#8211;  don&#8217;t puff trees. But if she did, it&#8217;s looking like Young Hovito would &#8220;hold it for her&#8221;.  Lauryn Hill. Now, whether she&#8217;s still with Rohan or not &#8211; he&#8217;s Zion&#8217;s daddy and most def a pro holder. Even with the Fugees, L-Boogie mighta held for Wyclef, but we all know Pras had to hold hers regardless.<\/p>\n<p>But now, speakin on Fugee Lah, I have to give a fat shout out to my man Jon Forte, who&#8217;s currently holdin&#8217; it down in the Fed. Hold your head, Forte. We know you ain&#8217;t ask them blonde, Paris Hilton-looking skags to hold liquid coke for you. Shit, you can&#8217;t help it if Joni Mitchell was holdin&#8217; your trees, and these random groupies decided they wanted to hold some other shit. Fuck that!  Free Jon Forte.<\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t leave without shouting out the mother of all weed owners. Ladies and gents &#8211; Ms. Erykah Badu. She&#8217;s had mad cats holdin&#8217; all her shit, gone off the ism. The Baduism, that is. We all know Andre 9000 was always bugged the fuck out, but after he carried for Badu, it was a (head)wrap for son in the clothing department. I think he had Cee-Lo hold some of hers for him on the low a couple times, because look how he started wearing pink feather flamingo pants? Now all these backpackers are back jocking Common Sense, but it&#8217;s in the not-so-distant past that he was carrying mad isms for Badu and wearing manpris and floppy hats. Last I heard she had the D.O.C. holdin&#8217; for her out in TX, and he was already funky enough before he hit the Baduism. I&#8217;m saying, her w\/h&#8217;s and w\/c&#8217;s go On &amp; On. Shit, the only dude who ain&#8217;t hold for Erykah is M-1 from dead prez. Just goes to show you, dpz are from the old-school when it comes to holdin\u00e2\u20ac\u0161 and foldin\u00e2\u20ac\u0161, carryin\u00e2\u20ac\u0161 and marryin&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>So who am I holdin&#8217; for? I pity the fool, B. Don&#8217;t play yourself. You know I&#8217;m the w\/o!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Robbie says: Check this piece from our new female contributor Marijuana Jones, who offers a much-needed perspective on the wacky-world of women weed carriers (phew! try sayin&#8217; that fast, five times in a row while rocking gold fronts!).
