Lampin'

(1.) verb - When a smoking device is losing smoke through any of its various holes (carb, mouthpiece, etc), giving the illusion of a genie leaving his/her magic lamp. May be specifically applied to Jeannie from "I Dream Of Genie" as a pop culture reference, although the reference does not come from Jeannie originally. (2.) verb - When a pothead is has no stuff and is in serious need of a hit; applied because the needy pothead in question wishes smoke was drifting from his/her nose and mouth like smoke from a magic lamp.

1. "Hit that piece quick--it's lampin'."

2. "Tommy ran dry last night, and has been lampin' ever since."

cold lampin'

Tapping into the electrical wires of a street light to power DJ and MC equipment, and sound system, for the use of underground hip-hop performances and battles.

This term was popularized by the Flavor Flav / Public Enemy song of the same name, but since the term is not defined in the song, many assume the phrase to have other meanings.

"Aiyyo, power from the street light made the place dark!
I know a few understand what I’m talkin’ about"
- Mos Def (refering to the practice of cold lampin')
