The song 'Nobody's Business' by Avant is a song about a relationship that is being judged by others. The lyrics convey that the people around the couple feel that their love is wrong. However, the couple believes that their love is nobody's business, and they should be allowed to love each other without judgment. The lyrics suggest that they have been through a lot, but they have stood by each other, and their love has grown stronger. The couple is not perfect, but they are happy being together, and that is all that matters.
The chorus is the highlight of the song, with the repetition of "Ain't nobody's business but ours." This chorus is catchy and driving and has been used in several movies and television episodes. The song is a perfect example of R&B music that was popular in the early 2000s. The lyrics suggest that the couple is not bothered by what people think about their relationship, and they are determined to stay together. The song's message is empowering for couples who might feel judged by society and encourages them to stay strong despite the judgment.
