That usage has survived somewhat into modern day hip-hop music, as poppin' pills or bottles is common slang for doing recreational drugs or drinking recklessly as a result of having too much money to know what to do with.

Pop Bottles – the urban hip-hop event about lifestyle and offering guests a unique and exclusive experience – is back for its first staging since the death of its founder Tumi 'DJ Dimplez' Mooi.

He was also a DJ and a producer, making mixtapes and beats for various artists. One day, he saw a young Lil Wayne walk into the store, looking for some CDs. He recognized him as a member of the Hot Boys, a group signed to Cash Money Records, which was founded by Birdman and his brother Slim.
