Rich Boy - Throw Some D's

Rich Boy sellin' crack
Fuck n* wanna jack
Shit tight no slack
Just bought a Cadillac
(THROW SOME D'S ON THAT BITCH!)

Took it to the chop shop
Got the damn top dropped two colored flip flopped
Candy red lollipop
There's hoes in the parking lot
But i still got my glock cocked
New money motherfucker don't you see the big knot
Don't you see the big chain
Don't you see the big grillz
Wonder who they hatin' on lately Baby dis him
Candy paint, Gator skin seats call me Dun Dee
Up in your hood I'm the one that you wanna be
Haters wish they could feel the wood in my '83
Ridin' with no tint so the motherfucker know it's me

I never slip, I never fall,
A lot of hoes give me they numbers but I never call
A real O.G. look at V.I.P. and see a n* ball
Then after we hit the club baby then I'm gonna hit them draws
I'm gonna break you off (and that's all)
Every freak should have a picture of my dick (on they wall)
Polow be the shit, zone 4 be the click (Yeah this for my dawgs)
Yeah gangsters, hustlers, wanksters, busters
(Wait a minute motherfucka)

Hit the block on some new 10 thousand dollar wheels
Can't explain how it feel,
Toucha gator on my wheel
Got peanut butter ice cream Peter pan seats
Just gotta Fresh cut
Now we looking for da freaks
Take her bad yella bitch

Imma show you how to ball
Middle finger to the law
So fuck them n* tell em' what they wanna do?
Hating on a player 'cause my 'lac skating 22's.
When I pull up imma park right at the front
Door lean In my cup got purp in my blunt.
Imma real pimp bitch I ain't playin' like a trick
Just bought a new 'Lac bout to put them Thangs on that bitch!!!!!

I, Rich Boy, am selling crack cocaine
I distain all those who wish to rob me
I am at the top of my proverbial game
I just purchased a Cadillac
Which I will outfit with Dayton wheels

I took my new car to an autobody establishment
To be customized by making it a convertible and
Painting it in a bright red “candy” paint
Although ladies are present I keep my firearm at the ready
Do you not see the large rolled stack of paper currency
rapped in a rubber band?
Do you not see my luxurious necklace and teeth fronts?
I have bright candy paint and alligator skin seats –
You might call me Crocodile Dundee¹
I am the object of aspiration in your neighborhood
Those who are jealous of my success are envious of
The wood grain trim in my 1983 automobile
Which unlike many of my contemporaries’ cars does not
Have tinted windows

I never fail in my endeavors
I do not continue communication with females
Subsequent to insemination
I am an original gangster who makes displays of his wealth
In the VIP section of nightclubs
After the nightclub I shall have sexual relations with you
But I will not have further contact
Every promiscuous female should have a picture of my penis
Polow Da Don² is the greatest and Zone 4³
is the greatest group of artists
Recognition to those in a gang, those who sell drugs,
false gangsters and unmasculine men –
wait the last part was a joke!

I feel indescribable when I drive around
on my wheels worth $10,000
I have an alligator steering wheel and tan seats
I am freshly groomed and am looking to fornicate
I will show you how to get girls to remove their undergarments
I have no respect for police or other men
That are jealous because I have 22 inch wheels on my Cadillac
I park directly in front
And smoke cigars filled with purple haze marijuana
I am a truly masculine man
I, if you are not already aware,
am planning to put Dayton wheels
On my Cadillac

This lack of basic scientific understanding is unexpected for a mechanical engineering major such as Rich Boy.

Notorious B.I.G. - Big Poppa

To all the ladies in the place with style and grace
Allow me to lace these lyrical duches in your bushes
Who rock grooves and make moves with all the mommies?
The back of the club, sippin Moet, is where you'll find me
The back of the club, mackin hoes, my crew's behind me
Mad question askin, blunt passin, music blastin
But I just can't quit
Because one of these honies Biggie gots ta creep with
Sleep with, keep the ep a secret why not
Why blow up my spot cause we both got hot
Now check it, I got more Mack than Craig and in the bed
Believe me sweety I got enough to feed the needy
No need to be greedy I got mad friends with Benz's
C-notes by the layers, true fuckin players
Jump in the Rover and come over
tell your friends jump in the GS3, I got the chronic by the tree
(I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa)
Throw your hands in the air, if youse a true player
(I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa)
To the honies gettin money playin n* like dummies
(I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa)
If you got a gun up in your waist please don't shoot up the place
Cause I see some ladies tonight who should be havin my baby, baby
Straight up honey really I'm askin
Most of these n* think they be mackin but they be actin
Who they attractin with that line,
"What's your name, what's your sign"?
Soon as he buy that wine I just creep up from behind
And ask what your interests are, "who you be with"?
Things to make you smile, what numbers to dial
You gon' be here for a while, I'm gon' go call my crew
You go call your crew
We can rendezvous at the bar around two
Plans to leave, throw the keys to Lil Cease
Pull the truck up, front, and roll up the next blunt
So we can steam on the way to the telly go fill my belly
A t-bone steak, cheese eggs and Welch's grape
Conversate for a few, cause in a few, we gon' do
What we came to do, ain't that right boo? (truuuueee)
Forget the telly we just go to the crib
and watch a movie in the jacuzzi smoke l's while you do me
(How ya livin Biggie Smallz?) In mansion and Benz's
Givin ends to my friends and it feels stupendous
Tremendous cream, fuck a Dollar and a Dream (whaat)
Still tote gats strapped with infrared beams
Choppin o's, smokin lye an' Optimo's
Money hoes and clothes all a n* knows
A foolish pleasure, whatever
I had to find the buried treasure, so grams I had to measure
However living better now, Gucci sweater now
Drop top BM's I'm the man girlfriend
(Honey check it, (check it)
Tell your friends, to get with my friends (your friends)
And we can be friends
Shit we can do this every weekend (that's right)
Aight? Is that aight with you? Yeah... keep bangin)

To all of the attractive, stylish females in the establishment
Allow me to light these joint-like words for you
Who is an excellent rapper and popular with females?
I am often seen in nightclubs sipping Moet champagne
Conversing with ladies, surrounded by my entourage
I make inquiries of them while smoking cigar rappers
filled with marijuana
I have to do this as I am very horny and need
to have sex with a woman
It will need to be a secret rendezvous
As I will not risk my ladyfriend finding out about the affair
Just because I am so horny.
I am a very suave man, not unlike Craig Mack (1)
I have enough stamina and style to please multiple women
I also have many associates who drive Mercedes Benz’s
The have many $100 bills and engage in many
money making activities
Climb inside my Range Rover and tell your friends to get
in the Lexus GS3
I have many grams of high grade marijuana

I love it when you refer to me as “Big Poppa”
Put your hands above your head and wave if you make
money from illegal activities
I love it when you refer to me as “Big Poppa”
This is dedicated to women who con men for money
I love it when you refer to me as “Big Poppa”
If you are armed, please do not shoot at any one in the nightclub
Because there are many attractive ladies here that
I would like to impregnate, impregnate

I am honestly approaching you for a date
Many of these other men think they are smooth but appear foolish
They have outdated pickup lines
So after they have invested money in buying a woman a drink
I approach her and engage her in conversation that would interest her
I make her laugh and ask her for her phone
friends and my friends can make plans to leave the
nightclub together at 2 am
I give my car keys to Lil’ Cease (2)
We get in the car and prepare another cigar
rappers filled with marijuana
So we can get high on the way to my house
I eat a steak, eggs and Welch’s grape juice
We talk for a minute before I have sex with her
while I smoke a marijuana cigarette and watch a movie in the jacuzzi

I am living very well in a mansion and driving Mercedes Benz’s
I give my friends money and it is highly gratifying
I have a great deal of money, regardless of the moral
message of "A Dollar and a Dream" (3)
I still carry guns with infared sights
I smoke a lot of marijuana in Optimo cigars
All I car about is money, loose women and stylish apparel
It may be foolish but I was forced to sell cocaine for money
But now I am much better off in life and wear Gucci sweaters
I drive BMW convertibles and am well generally regarded


(1) Rapper popular in the early 1990’s and the first to break out on Bad Boy Records. Biggie’s guest appearance on Craig Mack's “Flava in Ya Ear,” produced by Sean “P. Diddy” Combs, was the world’s first introduction to his laid back delivery and charismatic persona.

(2) Self-described “short, dark and chocolate” cousin of Biggie and fellow former member of rap collective Junior M.A.F.I.A. The name is short for “Lil’ Caesar,” which ostensibly refers to the erstwhile ruler of Rome and not the now defunct pizza chain.

(3) Reference to “A Dollar and a Dream” by Carl Weber, a collection of stories which describes the negative effect of greed on a group of African-Americans.

T.I. - What You Know?

Aye...don't you know I got key by the three
when I chirp shawty chirp back
Louis nap sackwhere I hold'n all tha work at
What you know about that?
What you know about that?
I know all about that
Loaded 44s on the low where the cheese at
Fresh off the jet to the jects where the G's at
What you know about that?
What you know about that?
Hey what you know about that?
Hey I know all about that

See me in ya city sittin pretty kno I'm shining dawg
Ridin wid a couple latin brawds and a china doll
And you kno how we ball, Ridin in shiny cars
Walk in designer malls, Buy everything we saw
You know about me dogg, Don't talk about me dogg
And if you doubt me dogg, You better out me dogg
I'm throwed off slightly bro, Don't wanna fight me bro
I'm fast as lightning bro, ya better use ya Nike's bro
Know you don't like me cause, Yo bitch most likely does
She see me on them dubs, In front of every club
I be on dro I'm buzzed, Give every ho a hug
N* don't show me mugs. Cause you don't know me cuz

Candy on the '64, Leather guts and fish bowl
50 on the pinky ring just to make my fist glow
Ya bitches get low, because I get dough
So what? I'm rich ho I still pull a-kick-do'
What you talking shit fo'? gotta run and hit fo'?
Got you a yellin and I thought you put out a gun hit fo
But you's a scary dude believed by very few
Just keep it very cool or we will bury you
See all that attitude's, unneccesary dude
Cause you never Carry Tools he not even square he cube*
You got these people fooled, who see me on the tube
Whatever try the crew, they'll see you on the news

Fresh off the jet to the block burn a rubber with a top-pop
I'll pop and bust a shot and tell em stop and make the block hot
Ya label got got cuz you are not hot
I got the top spot and it will not stop
A video or not that will bust it to the glock stop
Drag ya out that Bentley Coupe and take it to the chop shop
Partner, we got ya'll if it may pop off
I'll answer the question "Will I get ya block knocked off?"
And what it is bro look I'll kill ya, bro
I'm in your hood, if you a gangsta what you here for?
Somebody better get bro for he get sent for
You say you wanna squash it what you still talkin shit for?

*This lyric is often mistakenly heard as “sweary q’s”


***

Are you aware I have several kilos of cocaine?
When I signal to you that I am coming,
signal back to me in a similar fashion
I carry my drugs for sale in a Louis Vuitton bag
What would you, listener, know of such activities?
I am experienced in all such activities
I have a loaded 44 calibre weapon and am looking to profit
I deplaned from my jet to go directly to a public housing project
and am still looking to make money
What would you, listener, know of such activities?
I am experienced in all such activities

If you see me in your hometown, you will see I am well appointed
I will be accompanied by some latina women and an asian woman
My friends and I all drive luxury cars and command
unlimited purchasing power at the finest retail establishments
You know I am fearsome, do not slander me
If you doubt my ferocity, challenge me to a duel
I am somewhat insane and it would
not behoove you to antagonize me
You are jealous of me because your ladyfriend finds me attractive
She has witnessed me driving automobiles with 20" rims
Outside many nightclub hotspots
I smoked hydroponically grown marijuana
And thus have paid attention to every female
Do not take an aggressive stance towards me
as we are strangers to each other

My 1964 car has candy paint and a leather interior
I have spent $50,000 on my pinky ring
Women engage in sexual acts with me because I am rich
Even though I am rich, I will still kick someone's door
in and rob their home
Rival rapper Lil’ Flip, Why do you continue to antagonize me?
It is unnecessary that you posture as if you were
a genuine criminal as you never carry a firearm
You are so unhip, or “square” that you could be labeled a “cube”
Television viewers might be fooled by Lil’ Flip’s street persona
But if he were actually to try to attack me
His resulting murder would be broadcast on television news

I have gone directly from the airport to the streets of the inner city
In a convertible automobile
I can use my weapon to take over any block
Lil’ Flip’s record label is feeling the effects of his poor record sales
While my record sales are vastly superior
Our rivalry may escalate to violence
I will carjack you in your Bentley automobile and then sell it for parts
Someone should warn you that I will kill you in your
own neighborhood
If you wanted to observe détente in our conflict,
Why do you continue to antagonize me?
