I'm sure you guys have heard the term "whipping around town" to refer to driving around town looking hip.

I think hip hop artists got it from there. I don't remember where I first heard it, but I knew exactly what P was talking about in the song.

I think Prince doesn't have anything against hip hop. Doesn't he give a shout out to Dre on Life of the Party in addition to the Musicology shout outs?

Just out of curiousity, anyone know what particular hip hop song that came from? I consider myself a hip hop fan--though not what I'd call a hardcore one--and I'd never heard that phrase before...just wondering where it came from (and what "whip" has to do with a car)?


The term "whips" been out for a pretty long time. You can hear Master P or the Cash Money crew refer to cars as "whips" in their recent albums. Dirty South rappers use the term a lot more though.


Thanks for the schooling. Damn, Master P? I am out of it, I guess. But I don't feel so bad, cuz Master P sucks azz.

Whips = Cars


Here's more reference in the ICP&C lyrics....

"Dropped a couple hundred thousand dollars on a silver whip
just 2 match the color of her hair"

don't trip AU, I'm about to lose my whip, so Gawd bless the child that's got it's own...


If I don't get some more chips to upgrade my poor whip, I'm going to flip! fit

I went whip shopping last night. Came up with nothing. I'm torn between a Seabring convertible, a Solara convertible and the PT Cruiser convertible. headlp
