Growing up, it was hard to know what Hov was talking about in most of his verses, but we used to recite his full verses at lunch time in elementary school.
I remember never admitting I didnt know what Hov was talking about in Big Pimpin’ and just rapping along.
First time they fuss, I'm breezin'
Talkin' 'bout, "What's the reasons?"
I'm a pimp in every sense of the word, b****
Better trust and believe 'im
In the cut where I keep 'em
'Til I need a nut, 'til I need to beat the guts
Then it's, "Beep-beep," then I'm pickin' them up
Let 'em play with the d*** in the truck
Many chicks wanna put Jigga fists in cuffs
Divorce him and split his bucks
Just because you got good head, I'ma break bread
So you can be livin' it up?
This used to be my favorite song when I was little. I’m sure my mom prob thought it was hilarious with me singing along
clearly had no clue what they were talking about until later

“i watched my grandpa save pennies”
As a kid I had one of those Now CD's and I used to play It Wasn't Me by Shaggy all the time. Thought him and his girl were literally banging on the bathroom floor with their fists lmao

My mom banned me and my siblings from singing along to I Just Wanna Love U when I was little for this reason lol

When I found out Peaches and Cream wasn’t actually about food.
As a kid I didn’t know margiela so I always thought Ye said “what’s that jacket my chilla” on NIP
Used to always think Jay z said “right next to the Nero but ill be hood forever” on empire state of mind because my family is greek and nero means water in greek and I thought he was saying he had a nice apartment by the water
And then at some point i was like why tf would jay z be speaking greek
My mind was blown when I found out why Ron Brows called himself Either-boy on that horrendous pop champagne song

I appreciate the more subtlety to music back then tbh it ages much better
