Coroner Rules Pimp C's Death Accidental

Posted about 1 year ago
The Los Angeles County Coroner's office released a report which states the cause of death for Texas rapper Pimp C. The accidental death was, "a result of a pre-existing condition of sleep apnea combined with an elevated amount of prescription codeine in his blood."
The codeine is one of the main ingredients in "Sizzurp", also known as "Lean", or "Purple", which is a popular drug concoction popular in Texas. One of Pimp C's most famous verses came on the song "Sippin On Some Sizzurp", which became a big hit on MTV. At the time the song received huge airplay unedited because the network censors didn't know what it was.

In the video below, you can see Lil Wayne making Lean for himself, it's a really big thing with southern artists.
