Trivia

Interesting facts about Wockesha. By Songfacts.

"Wockesha" is Moneybagg Yo's name for the addictive beverage "lean," or "purple drank." Made with soda or fruit juice mixed with prescription-strength cough syrup and hard candy, the concoction is popular in southern United States hip-hop culture. During this trippy cut, Moneybagg personifies lean as a woman called "Wockesha" and explores their toxic relationship. The rapper derived the name from Wockhardt, an Indian pharmaceutical company who manufactures cough syrup.


Once a lean addict, Moneybagg had been clean of the drug for a while before recording this cut. He told Billboard about writing a song about his old habit: "You had to just blank out, you had to just go into the studio and close your eyes and think about everything you've done. That's what I did, just close my eyes and reflect back on everything."


YC, Javar Rockamore, and RealRed's production incorporates a sample of the keyboard riff from Debarge's 1983 song "Stay With Me." Though the song was never a hit, "Stay With Me" has been a popular choice for sampling by hip-hop, R&B and pop acts, including Notorious B.I.G. on his 1994 cut "One More Chance," Ashanti on her 2002 hit "Foolish," and Mariah Carey on her 2008 track "I'll Be Lovin' U Long Time."
