Pusha T has a lot of money to blow. As he likes to remind us, it doesn't only come from his career as a rapper. He also made a grip flipping bricks before we ever knew him. And though it's hard to know which cars he merely names for bravado, and which ones he actually owns, we suspect that he's spent a fair amount of that hard earned cash on whips. Otherwise, he'd be turning his back on stereotypes about rappers and (former) drug dealers. See how present wheels are on his mind with Every Car Reference From Pusha T's "My Name Is My Name".

"18-wheeler gorillas/Black with gold chains, pitch bird like Steelers"
Song: "Pain"
An 18-wheeler can fit a lot of blow. Perhaps even too much for King Push to move.
"On the DL pushin' my brother's CL/Meet you at the spot, you had tint on the TL"
Song: "Let Me Love You"
Not to be nitpicky, but there's nothing DL about rolling around in a six-figure car, even if it does belong to your brother.
"April showers, I rains back/Jumped ahead like June something/Still I'm wheeling that Maybach"
Song: "No Regrets"
Push delivers an awesome play on words here. Children should be taught their months using these bars.
"In the hood I'm a king (king), Arthur to the people/'Cept he got his on a chariot, I got mine in a Regal"
Song: "No Regrets"
Young Jeezy wins this song because he nailed the perfect car for a Hood King.
"The California top just falls back like autumn"
Song: "40 Acres"
If we had a Ferrari California, all of our problems would fall back like autumn.
"The car is a concept, what's next is my last year"
Song: "Suicide"
Which concept car are you talking about, Ab Liva? Is it the Mercedes-Benz CLA 45 AMG Racing Series Concept? If so, can you lend us the keys?
"In that glass back, the motor is the ass crack"
Song: "Suicide"
Pusha T is probably talking about G.O.O.D. Music's favorite car, the Lamborghini Murcielago. The Mercy's engine can be seen through its rear window.
"Over night I seen a nigga go get a Carrera/Two weeks later I had to be that boy pallbearer"
Song: "Hold On"
Ricky Ross reminds us to live in the moment. He also rhymes "Carrera" with "pallbearer," which, wow.
"In that Phantom like I'm Blair Witch (Wooo!)"
Song: "Sweet Serenade"
In the movie, the Blair Witch is supposed to be the ghost of Elly Kedward, a woman banished from the Blair Township for accusations of being a witch in the 1700s. Push deserves a Rolls-Royce for sitting through that movie to make a reference.
"While my hoes doing magic, voodoo Moulin Rouge/That's a tactic that they use, fuck 'em high then suck 'em dry/Before you know it her Q7 is buzzing by"
Song: "Sweet Serenade"
We hate to see Q7s leave, but we love to see them drive away.
"Every car driven was decided by the horse/Keep the sticker in the window 'case you wonder what it cost"
Song: "Numbers On The Board"
Is this the next level version of leaving your sticker on your hat? It sounds straight out of a Key and Peele skit.
"It's a different jingle when you hear these car keys/Your SL's missing an S, nigga/Your plane's missing a chef/The common theme see they both got wings/If you fly, do it to death"
Song: "Numbers On The Board"
The common theme is that we can't afford either of those things. But wings work, too.
"This pole position, I made a lane cause they blocked ours"
Song: "King Push"
So that's why it took this album so long to come out: Pusha T was being held up in traffic.
