Pusha T knows a thing or two about flipping kilograms of cocaine, so when it comes to those looking to move weight, there are few better suited to offer advice.
On Sunday (October 9), Pyrex P shared some of his dope boy wisdom with a fan that purportedly purchased their “first brick.” The fan was so excited about the saran-wrapped package that they tagged the Virginia Beach native on Twitter and credited him with inspiring the investment.
“Got my first brick to flip courtesy of @PUSHA_T,” they wrote.
Pusha T caught wind of the tweet and schooled the fan on how to properly preserve the “brick” on their drive home without attracting any unwanted attention.
“Drive home slow and very steady,” he advised.
Many fans would consider Pusha T’s advice to be valuable, especially considering he’s been trafficking in coke raps for most of his career over the last two decades — both as one-half of the Clipse and a solo artist on Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music.
In March, King Push revealed his top three coke rappers during an interview with Complex — and included himself on the list.
“Hov is first, because he made Reasonable Doubt and that is the grail of all drug levels, without being all about drugs,” he said. “It spoke more to the lifestyle.
“Lyrically, I’m going to say that I’m next. And I’ll say Jeezy is third, because I don’t believe there was a stronger moment in time than Trap or Die.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Pusha T addressed the backlash to the “coke rap” niche and described the term as “lazy,” while saying he feels he’s elevated the artform.
“I don’t know when it became cool for people to slight the cornerstone of rap,” he said. “It’s funny, because I come under a lot of scrutiny for the term ‘coke rap.’ Either they’re knocking it or they’re finding ways to cheapen it.
“Like, I drop an album, I go through a cycle and by the time the album cycle is done, then it’s back to, ‘Oh, it’s only this, it’s only that.’ And then I watch the same people who shoot down the genre when I’m at it, they’ll sit back. Then, in my absence, it turns into, ‘Oh man, this is great lyricism.’”
Pusha T’s dope boy expertise may soon be felt in the business space as well. In April, Tesla CEO and business magnate Elon Musk announced he wanted to buy Coca-Cola and “put the cocaine back in.”
Musk’s tweet piqued Pusha’s interest as he inserted himself into the conversation with a subtle eye emojis reply.
You should mention that this was a prop from Pusha T’s show but that wouldn’t be as clik worthy
I got better advice. Dont post your business on social media. Especially on a twitter account with pictures of yourself and even identifying the vehicle you drive by showing the dashboard. If you get caught, you did it all on your own. Clout aint shit, be about your money and protecting the privacy your investment. Pusta T was probably shaking his head.
The brick he copped was a prop from a Pusha T concert. (iow, not real drugs).
Every time theres a rapper you dont like you say they are a one trick pony with no range. Learn some new arguments. Your words hold no power.
From first song to most recent he glorifies the coke game and worse its not even his truth , there are rappers with a documented past in the drug trade and they don’t even gas it up like he does. Hes 100% making it up. I love his word play and cadence but i’m 36 and too grown for his content
I’m 36 too and I love his content. It’s like a movie.
Exactly. Fictionalized.
I got better advice… Stay in school and get a worthwhile degree. Although, Lord Willin’ was my shit back in the day. Those that know better, do better!
And wtf does politics have anything to do with this article I swear u asshats just gotta bring politics into everything democrats this Democrats that like republicans are any better smh
Standards are really low when editors are letting articles like this get posted… Y’all make the culture look corny and one sided af.
you’d be able to politicize a dora the explorer article…
Fake ass drug dealer. He was a middle class kid from the suburbs of Virginia. Look it up. This guy is a studio gangster. Even his brother can’t co-sign his lies.
Pusha is definitely not one too ask, this man admitted to never slingin shit, he only speaks on what he’s seen his peers do in the streets back in the day, you notice Push talks like a white suburban kid? It’s because he is.
