Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hip-hop, hip-hop
Hip-hop, hip-hop
Hip-hop, hip-hop

Return are the be-girl promises
Hip-hop style with a little twist
Original be-girl down for job
We're the real T-love, step up front

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of T-Love's song "The Reel Love" make reference to hip-hop music, a genre that is well-known for its ability to enhance story-telling through its lyrical style. The artist uses the repetition of "Hip-hop, hip-hop" to draw attention to the genre and establish it as the backdrop for her message. In the first verse, she talks about how she and her crew have returned to fulfill the promises of hip-hop, but with a unique twist that sets them apart from others. She calls herself a "be-girl," a term that references the early days of hip-hop when breakdancers and graffiti artists were called b-boys and b-girls.


The second verse explains that T-Love is an "original be-girl down for the job." This line could potentially have multiple meanings - on one hand, she could be referencing her commitment to hip-hop and the role she plays as a female rapper in the industry. On the other hand, it could be interpreted as a statement of her readiness to take on any challenges that come her way. The final line of the verse, "We're the real T-love, step up front," indicates that T-Love and her crew are confident in their abilities to deliver quality hip-hop music and want to be recognized for their hard work.


Overall, "The Reel Love" is a song that celebrates hip-hop and encourages listeners to appreciate the artful storytelling that is intrinsic to the genre. T-Love positions herself as a confident and capable artist who is committed to preserving the original essence of hip-hop music while also pushing the boundaries and innovating in her own unique way.
