New Single White Girl by LTC

2009-01-20T20:29:00.000-08:00

Before I begin let me start by saying:
White Girl is slang for “Cocaine”. The song White Girl that I wrote is referring to cocaine as “White Girl” it’s not making the comparison between a white woman and cocaine.

Simply, Cocaine is rapped about like it is a girl. Some artists like Nas and Chamillionaire have written similar songs that refer to “Money” as a girl.

With that being said, let me tell you a little more about the single "White Girl". If you have no knowledge of the slang meaning of White Girl then you will hear the song and you will think that it is referring to a girl. This is a cleverly written song. The beat and the chorus is catchy. At the end of each verse you are waiting intently to find out what is said next.

Now on the other hand if you do know the slang meaning for White Girl then you will have a deeper understanding of the song. And if you have some unfortunate experiences using or selling cocaine then you might be able to empathize with the song.

By telling you what the slang White Girl means I feel like I am giving you the plot of a movie. Rest assured you will not be disappointed and you will want to hear it over and over again.
