The second verse of this song (which starts at 1:40 in the video) is about a girl named Nicki who is 24 years old, like me.
Here are the lyrics about Nicki:
“Back that ass up like a dump truck
If you havin fun in the club, throw ya pumps up
All my ballas in the building throw ya 1s up
If you ain’t throwin no money then get ya funds up
I asked her whats her name and she said her name Nicki
Got a real big booty and some real big titties
Say she don’t really come out to the city
Cuz she a country girl and she like to get busy
She got a good job and she say she 24
I said “Ok” then shawty hit the flo’
And I was like “whoa”
Then I threw some 1s just to let shawty know
Just to let shawty that Ima..[chorus]“
The song was dissected by the website RapGenius.com. The site’s aim is “not to translate rap into ‘nerdspeak’, but rather to critique rap as poetry.” Here is a screen shot of what the site had to say about Nicki.
