An aneurism is a weakening and ballooning of the wall of an artery. Whatever causes an increase in blood pressure will make it more serious and could make the weak part break and so there will be bleeding, often substantial, and result in a variety of problems, including death. So meth and crack sure would make a weak spot balloon out and maybe burst. It is possible that prolonged use of things that cause high blood pressure will actually cause the initial weakening as well.

Any of the sympathomimetic drugs such as methamphetamine or cocaine, or the variants there of, can and do cause elevated blood pressure, which can contribute to the formation of aneurysms and the rupture of them.
