Let's talk Lil Wayne and cough syrup

To be honest, I could give two shits about Lil Wayne I never really enjoyed any of his music. But after this media blitz about him seizing I'm very confused as to what people think "purple drank" is. Every story mentions codeine but does drinking too much codeine cause seizures? I've never heard of that side effect in anything labeled as an opiate.
Which brings me to DXM, NMDA receptor antagonists do lower your seizure threshold. I don't know what the laws are in the states but you can't buy codeine over the counter in Canada, so when someone says purple drank around here they usually mean robotussin.
So are these rappers actually robo-tripping instead of taking opiates? It just makes much more sense if you look at the lyrics of what they describe it as. Slang can be very innaccurate or make no sense whatsoever so are they drinking DXM and just saying codeine instead?

Lean is a culture? I did not know of the lean culture until now.

Perhaps we're not supposed to?
I watched that whole video. Nothing but a bunch of horse shit.
I didn't want you to know I bought a Bugatti, so here is my Bugatti. Look at it! I was the first black rapper to own one, but I didn't want anyone to know that. That's why I just told you that. That's why I told you the price I paid!
Pull up a six, and a 20oz, if you even know what that means.
Uhh let me take a wild fucking guess. Perhaps 6oz of cough sirup in 20oz of soda or something like that? Retard...
