Bruh I been living in the south my whole life and never heard anyone down here say pop. That's Midwest shyt. Old folks here say coke, and then everyone else says soda.

my coworkers from my 1st job who were from the Chicago area all kept saying pop when we traveled and used to have me fukked up.

I asked the homie @beaniemac about that shyt when I first traveled to Chicago. A nikka was all fukked up. :laff:

Atlanta and lived in Memphis for 8 years. Never heard pop until I started going more north. Can't speak for Texas or Arkansas.

yeah, I'm thinking the same shyt.

deep south don't say "pop".

even during my time in houston and DFW, I can't remember hearing pop said a lot.

Whenever you go somewhere and they give you the screwface asking for sweet tea, you ain't in the deep south no mo.

Old folks say Coke/cold drank where I’m from. I knew one person that strictly said Soda. All the young cats call it Pop. It doesn’t matter how y’all feel about it, it is what it is. 501 shyt

Well If young cats are saying it I can understand that, over time pop has become more popularized due to folks traveling and etc from different regions.

I really dont think none of yall are wrong, Timberlake is a Tennessee cat and wrote 'Pop' but I question how much of that he penned/was his vision considering that chump Wade Robson was writing a lot for NSYNC back then.

Trust me, we call it pop. nikkas are NOT running around saying Soda on my side.

What did Pimp C say about where the real South is? Central Time Zone. I can’t speak for Atlanta, but I know nikkas from Dallas and Htown both that say POP. Shreveport and Monroe too. Oh and definitely Memphis and North Mississippi.

Edit: “Let me get a waterfall off your Pop, Dawg.”, was a common irk growing up. You couldn’t enjoy your drink without hearing that shyt in the hood in the 80s, 90s, and 00s when I was growing up.

Nah I mean 80s babies and up

:patrice: I don't know then. I was heavy in Memphis back in the 80s - mid 90's visiting fam and etc. Coke was the main drink (pop/soda) off rip, cats down there didn't mess with Pepsi at all. I dont recall hearing Pop that much, mainly Soda. But like you say it could be regional, Pop is just a short saying of Soda Pop. I cant really speak on anything outside of that, yall southern brothas will have to figure it out:mjgrin::pachaha:

So Memphis, Little Rock, North Texas, North Lousiana, and North Mississippi aren’t the South now? Where are y’all from?
Arkansas and north Texas definitely have heavy midwestern influence. There are a lot of border regions where there’s heavy influence from the region that the area isn’t geographically associated to. Especially with Texas where you got southwest, Midwest and Deep South cultures in different parts of the state

It fukked me up in the 6th grade when I heard a breh ask for a "soda".

He had to be a non-midwest breh
