"'Drank in My Cup'" is a song by American rapper Kirko Bangz. It is taken from his mixtape 'Progression 2: A Young Texas Playa'. The Sound M.O.B. produced single is his highest-charting song to date and has sold over 1,000,000 copies digitally.

The song is full of references to this music scene, including the slow, relaxed rhythm of the song.
