Times have changed... Ecstacy in music...

[Luke]

^^ that is a good point....but at the same time eminem didn't think it over very well...most people won't think of it like that...most people will just look at it as a double standard

[Tanjential]

Looots of knowledge dropped in this post. Props to damn near everyone for their well thought out thoughts (no sarcasm, at all, real talk)

Now my thoughts.

There's a difference between a user and an e-tard.
and yeah, you can hear it on Mac dre's discography, the progression, his first albums sound like too short and NWA and shit and by the late 90's he's thiiiiiiizzzed out.

i believe mac dre was an e-tard by the time he died, based on what i've read.


e doesn't put holes in your shit unless you abuse the fuck out of it, which admittedly, many do.

[Tanjential]

no problem. not to be fucked up but if mac dre didn't get shot at, he probably would of died soon doing all of that E cuz that shit puts holes in your head

WRONG, Ecstacy does not put no holes in your brain, there is no evidence for this. The studies that were done on this when Ecstacy got pronounced illegal were tests paid for by the government, and it turns it out they were tests done on monkeys who were injected with MDMA mixed with Meth. Now that Meth will put holes in your brain, but not MDMA, which is the scientific term for pure Ecstacy. MDMA back in the day was used by doctors giving the perscription of it to patients who were depressed. But ofcourse, anything abused is bad for you, so I'm not saying it doesn't have its bad sides, but it is not as bad as the government has portrayed it to be. Go do some real studies on it to get to the bottom of it if you're interested. And yes, Mac Dre was a real e-tard, I've hung out at hotels with his right hand man Dubee who took the pill every hour or 2, it could be 7 in the morning and this muthafuca still poppin em like skittles. But for the most part, it is no addictive, the body will not need it. It is all in the mind.

thizz blew up lately from the bay back then it wasnt known like it is now.

So Mac Dre was poppin E too? what does e have to do with thizz movement?

thizz is slang for E.

Oh, wow, I didn't know that either. I thought it was a 'dance' movement or some shit.

his right hand man Dubee

that wouldn't happen to be the same Dubee that was on YBB records with Mac is it?

Well, thizz is slang for the feeling you get when you pop ecstacy. That crazy energy you get like you just drank 20 redbulls. You look at someone like Mistah FAB, he has never popped a pill, but he reps thizz all day, he refers to the energy you get, some people consider themselves thizzed out even without the pill, because of their "hyphyness" at that moment. But if you from the streets, then you'll know thizz is the feeling of ecstacy, the squares like to change it since they don't pop, lol.

[QuietTruth]

^ Propz for explaining that.

[GangstaBoogy]

thats what you guys get for trying to put "standards" on ghetto ass nigs who will stop at nothing to get money whether through drugs, music, or crime (all the same to them)

besides, dude is just saying JA IS GETTING SOFT from the E, not that E is bad. you nerds (gangstaboogy) take this shit too seriously. diss me now

and you are...?

[Shawn Nutt]

im glad people are learning somethin here

yeah mac dre was a huge e-tard... only 1 question i have...
i know that youre not supposed to take mushrooms that often, like every 2 weeks at most, but i thought E was the same? maybe not as severe, but still on the same page as shrooms... if people are doing this shit daily, wouldnt that "put holes in their brain"?

I do ecstacy half as much as I do shrooms/LSD. Ecstacy is alot more taxing to the body from my experience. -T

That is the greatest drug website ever made. They are usually very accurate.

Ecstacy is not made to be taken everyday, no drugs are. I don't know about hold in ure brain, but if you do it everyday, then it will have some effects on your spinal cord in the long run. But that is what e-tards do, if you do ecstacy every once in a while for a special occasion, then all power to you. Just make sure you can handle it and know how to fuck with it. Everything in moderation. Shrooms I don't fuck with too much, I just have bad experiences with them, I'm not really into hallucinating.
