CBC News- “Molly,” or Powdered Ecstasy, is Gaining Mainstream Popularity

Molly is being promoted as the purest and safest form of MDMA, but it’s usually a mix of other drugs. Popular artists like Trinidad James, Kanye West and Nicki Minaj have made references in their songs to Molly, which is a slang term for methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) in powder form. Winnipeg police say there has not been an escalation of MDMA in the city, but the drug is still commonly available in bars and on the streets.
