Rainmakin' rapper Lil Wayne's constant companion -- other than controversy -- is his trademark triple stack of styrofoam cups. What's in there?!
TMZ caught up with Lil Wayne and his recently pinched mentor, Baby the "Birdman," collecting swag at the Ed Hardy grand opening in the Beverly Center -- where Wayne sipped on his three-cup concoction for all the kiddies to see.
Last week, Weezy and his drinking buddies struggled to host a party at Pure Nightclub in Atlanta.

What's this fool doing with a tear drop tat. I don't believe he's smoked anyone.
Little punk should know in certain places he would have that cut right off, unless ofcourse he can back it up.

Ok, 1st, you're an idiot & 2nd... you're an idiot! Having a teardrop tattoo DOES NOT only mean that you've "smoked" someone dumbass!! It also means that you've lost someone very close to you, or it can also represent how may years you've been down (done) in prison. You know, there's a whole other world besides prison!! And before you get on my jock about that statement, YES, I DO know a lil something about that! Someone very close to me has been locked up for the past 8 years. So yeah, I do know a lil something about it. Plus, I also used to be married to a tattoo artist! Teardrop tattoos DO have more than 1 meaning! Do your research before you post!

The drink originated at Nick's Bar in New Orleans. The real name is "Wild Night at the Capris Hotel." I was a regualr there and all of a sudden the drink caught on with the Cash Money Crowd. It was layered Red, White, and Blue liquors and when mixed together it became purple and was then known as "the purple drink." It got so bad they had to quit serving it because it became such a thug hang out and there was even a murder inside the bar. It was a weird mix of white professionals, college students, and gangsta types. Nicks was destroyed in the storm.

wisegirl you are only partially correct... the purple DRANK as its called actually originated in Houston Tx in the clubs its cough syrup mixed with sprite and also crushed pills (depending on what you are going for). it has been aroun for at least 15 to 20 years and the music of choice to drink it with is called screwed and chopped hip hop.

Hopped up on cough syrup. Classy. What's that crap on his face? Did someone write on him while he was passed out? This guy will be dead soon.

Equal Opportunity Offender:
You're probably a lot more knowledgeable about rap culture than I am, so I take your word for it. I had been told by the bartenders that the Cash Money guys would order the drink by the gallon from Nicks and then swing by and pick it up. It was called the purple drink when ordered by the black guys at the bar. As "L" said earlier the white kids called it the "Red, White and Blue." It may just be coincidence.

I was at his photoshoot for Giant. They claimed it was Kool-aid and as far as I could tell it was (syrup looks and smells different). Somehow thats even funnier to me...

I always thought that's just what people do with their cups at clubs. Makes it easier later when the cop asks "how many have you had tonight" ......

The more he drinks ... the quicker his liver shuts down ... the better off society is.

as much as i love hip hop, i got to clown you weezy. you and baby go around bragging about how much money yall got, why are yall sitting back and not trying help rebuild New Orleans, Brad Pitt isn't from the N.O and he is about to go down and build a150 homes in the lower 9th ward, you and baby should be ashamed of yourselves because that's your hometown and you letting outsiders do something you should have did a long time ago.
