"Drank in My Cup" is a song by American rapper
Kirko Bangz. It is taken from his mixtape Progression 2: A Young Texas Playa. The
Sound M.O.B. produced single is his highest-charting song to date and has sold over 1,000,000 copies digitally.[2] The song uses the word '
drank' a number of times as a clear reference to
purple drank, a
codeine-
promethazine cocktail served in
Sprite, a drink symbolic of the
H-Town hip-hop scene, classically associated with
chopped and screwed music. The song is full of references to this music scene, including the slow, relaxed rhythm of the song.
