Now this is what I call fun with maps:

In the tune Area Codes, rapper Ludacris brags about the area codes where he knows women whom he refers to as “hoes.”:

“I’ll jump off the G4, we can meet outside/So control your hormones and keep your drawers on/’Til I close the door and I’m jumping your bones/3-1-2’s, 3-1-3’s (oh), 2-1-5’s, 8-0-three’s (oh)/Read your horoscope and eat some horderves (sic)/Ten on pump one, these hoes is self serve/7-5-7, 4-1-0’s, my cell phone just overloads.”

Conclusions:
+ Ludacris heavily favors the East Coast to the West, save for Seattle, San Francisco, Sacramento, and Las Vegas.
+ Ludacris travels frequently along the Boswash corridor.
+ There is a ‘ho belt‘ phenomenon nearly synonymous with the ‘Bible Belt.’
+ Ludacris has hoes in the entire state of Maryland.
+ Ludacris has a disproportionate ho-zone in rural Nebraska. He might favor white women as much as he does black women, or perhaps, girls who farm.
+ Ludacris’s ideal ‘ho-highway’ would be I-95.
+ Ludacris has hoes in the Midway and Wake Islands. Only scientists are allowed to inhabit the Midway Islands, and only military personnel may inhabit the Wake Islands. Draw your own conclusion.
