What Did I Do Last Night? | |
| Ludacris (Music) / int_27ba9b64 | comment |
What Did I Do Last Night?: Played for laughs in "One More Drink". Ludacris gets wicked drunk and hooks up with a woman that, sans Beer Goggles, looks really ugly. He remembers none of this, and he has to chew off one of his arms to escape the woman's bed. | |

Trope Codifier | |
| Ludacris (Music) / int_44bd31e2 | comment |
Trope Codifier: More than anyone else, Ludacris defined and popularized the 2000s Dirty South sound and was one of the people who put Atlanta on the map, and in general, if it wasn't Lil Jon breaking someone who was from or associated with Atlanta in the 2000s, it was probably Ludacris. | |

Making Love in All the Wrong Places | |
| Ludacris (Music) / int_4e91b042 | comment |
Making Love in All the Wrong Places: The subject of "What's Your Fantasy?", which describes making love in a lot of places where one would not be expected to do such a thing. In a classroom? On the beach? In a club? That's just the tip of the iceberg. Hell, even THE WHITE HOUSE isn't off-limits to him! | |

City Shout Outs | |
| Ludacris (Music) / int_5c26386e | comment |
City Shout Outs: In the remix to "Welcome to Atlanta", Jermaine Dupri, P. Diddy, Snoop Dogg, and Murphy Lee rave about their hometowns as well —New York, Los Angeles, and St. Louis respectively. This song spawned a small meme among hip-hop fans, adding verses about their hometowns if it wasn't one of the above. | |

Good Girls Avoid Abortion | |
| Ludacris (Music) / int_8387bb18 | comment |
Good Girls Avoid Abortion: Firmly averted on "Runaway Love". It's treated as a good, if not best, choice for a pregnant 11-year old, but Erica's family doesn't have the money to pay for one. | |

Aesop Amnesia: In the video for "One More Drink", Ludacris is telling what looks like a support group about his drunken escapades that led him there. One night, he got so blackout drunk that he slept with a wildly unattractive woman. After gnawing off his arm to escape from her grasp, he calls up his buddies for yet another night of inebriated foolishness;"Cuz tonight, damn right, I might do it again!" | |

Creator Provincialism: The song "Move Bitch" has the lyrics "doing 100 on the highway, so if you do the speed limit, get the fuck outta my way". In the metric system, 100 kilometers per hour is 62 miles per hour, so if he did this in a country that uses the metric system, the speed would be different. More specifically, he's quite fond of mentioning his hometown of Atlanta, GA. | |

A Girl in Every Port: His song "Area Codes" has him brag about this in a lesser degree. The song contains the lyrics "I got hoes/In different area codes", so he's basically describing that he has a lot of girlfriends spread all across the Country. Those area codes range from Atlanta to New York, Houston to Los Angeles, and all the way to Hawaii. | |
