A..”Dropped” = introduced to the market for sale. OR
B..”Dropped” = cancelled the idea of selling

I’m assuming it’s meaning ‘A’.
Somehow, it has become common to use that verb in this way.
Who knows how this caught on? Probably via some Rap song.
No one else seems annoyed about it, but me.

Trust me, I am also annoyed. I have a list of things that annoy me, like the way people use further instead of farther to say farther.
