Rapper Big Moe, 33, Dies

Big Moe, who rapped and sang, was a member of the late DJ Screw's rap collective the Screwed Up Click. DJ Screw died of a heart attack in 2000 after a reported overdose of codeine-laced cough syrup.

Big Moe often rapped about the drug and the titles of his first two albums made reference to it. His first album was called "City of Syrup" and his most successful offering was 2002's "Purple World," for the color most often associated with the drug.

Big Moe's top two singles, "Barre Baby" and "Purple Stuff" were odes to the drug. He also released a third album, "Moe Life," in 2003.

2.
purple stuff

A drink alternative offered in lieu of Sunny Delight. Nobody really knows quite what it tastes like because of how often it is overlooked. It resides in the back of the refrigerator and is usually offered as part of a long list of other beverages that will always end with Sunny D, whereupon all those present get excited and invariably choose the Sunny D.

Only one person is ever documented drinking the purple stuff. He was a little fat kid with glasses wearing a "No Fear" shirt. All of the more althetic kids got in front of him a drank the entire bottle of Sunny D. He was left with the purple stuff. He drank some... and was never seen again.
