Tambien

The corner I used to cop from was very organized. This is typical of the open air drug marts in Philly. You have the dudes slingin', the dudes that play lookout and of course there's muscle hangin' out as well.

I was a regular customer and known to all the corner boys. Whenever someone would cop (myself included) the dude that was slingin' would shout 'tambien' (not real loud but loud enough).

I was curious about this and am still dwelling on it so I looked up the definition of 'tambien'.

tambien - too, as well, also

See, I originally thought it meant 'okay' or 'cool' (as in alright). I figured they said this to let the muscle know that the money was right or they didn't get dicked over but now I'm fuckin' confused.

This corner didn't do car service. You had to get out of your car, walk to the dude who had your product (either coke, weed, ecstacy, wet or percs), do the deal and walk back to your car.

Oh well, another one of those trivial nagging wonders I'll have to figure out another time. I just know I can't figure it out from more experiences.

Tambien, soldiers, tambien.
