Black slang - "tub" (Lil Wayne, possibly regional)

Lil Wayne has been saying “tub” a lot. I don’t know what he means.

  • “I’m fresher than a motherfucker/yeah I’m a motherfucker/no, I won’t take your girl but I shall take her tub from her”

  • “But there’s blood in the boot, it’s a blood bath/sorry there’s a tub in the boot, now where the drugs at?”

UrbanDictionary’s got nothing.

I don’t think he is saying “tub” in this song. These lyrics seem to back me up.

Here is the song. The lyrics are as follows:

“And, then I leave blood in the booth, I leave a blood bath,
Sorry there’s a tub in the booth, now where the drugs at?”

He literally talking about a tub. I don’t know if you have other examples of this, but I would not concern myself too much with the coherency of Lil’ Wayne’s music or his diction.

Thanks. I’m glad I was just mishearing/overthinking it. Someone needs to make a cross-referenced “Weezypedia,” because that young man might be the James Joyce of his generation.
