In the words of Rick James: “Cocaine’s a hell of a drug.”

Apparently, researchers in Britain are coming closer to a vaccine for cocaine’s effects. The vaccine tricks antibodies into attacking cocaine molecules in order to block the body’s receptors from absorbing the chemicals and thereby reducing the “high.”

Unfortunately, the vaccine doesn’t do anything to fight withdrawal symptoms. Now all some scientist needs to come up with is methadone for coke.

    So is Heroin, “it’s a hell of a drug” is just that – a hell of a drug. It’s hell and it’s so much pleasure at the same time – I don’t think Rick was idolizing it when he said that at all – it’s that love hate thing – I always equivocate it with a bad relationship – you know it’s no good but it feels good, at times, but it’s no good and it’s HELL breaking away – I oughta know I’ve been a complete drug addict (to everything) since I was 16 that’s 20 years of substance abuse under my belt and it’s hell on earth…

    Well………. cocaine is a hell of a drug. Not sure why your asking but i’m fairly sure you are taking this out of context. whatever suits your fancy i guess…….. I think he meant extraordinarily powerful.
