Hello Hi
Big Narstie Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hello baby, hello baby, hi
Hella lifted, hella twisted, I am hella high
L'Oréal, all these ladies know that I am worth it
When I hit the beat, it's fire, even Charlie Sloth said "perfect"

Hello baby, hello baby, hi (hi)
Hello baby, hello baby, hi
Hello baby, hello baby, hi (hello)

Hello, baby, hi
Hello, ahoy, ciao
Ni hao, bonjour, ciao
Guten tag, konnichiwa, it is going down
Base, ow

I get turnt and lift it
Like Oliver, I'm leaving hair twisted
"Hello Hi" brings vibe in an instance
Good girls better keep their distance
I'm with next chicks watching our Netflix
Started at movies, hitting all exits
Batty and breasts
Throwing up legs

Hello baby, hello baby, hi
Hella lifted, hella twisted, I am hella high
L'Oréal, all these ladies know that I am worth it
When I hit the beat, it's fire, even Charlie Sloth said "perfect"

Hello baby, hello baby, hi (hi)
Hello baby, hello baby, hi
Hello baby, hello baby, hi (hello)
Hello, baby, hi
Hello, ahoy, ciao
Ni hao, bonjour, ciao
Guten tag, konnichiwa, it is going down
Base, ow

Alright then, love?
You know you're looking real buff
I know I'm not supposed to touch
But baby, we should turn up

Hello baby, hello baby, hi (hi)
Hello baby, hello baby, hi
Hello baby, hello baby, hi (hello)
Hello, baby, hi
Hello, ahoy, ciao
Ni hao, bonjour, ciao

Guten tag, konnichiwa, it is going down
Base, ow

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Big Narstie's song "Hello Hi" are an expression of the artist's high spirits and euphoria. When he greets his listeners - "Hello baby, hello baby, hi" - he emphasizes his elevated headspace, saying he is "hella lifted", "hella twisted", and "hella high". The references to the L'Oréal motto, "because you're worth it", tie into the idea that he is feeling confident and desirable, appealing to all the ladies out there.

Throughout the song, he references his own talent and charisma, noting that when he hits the beat, it's "fire" and even Charlie Sloth called it "perfect". He is also surrounded by "next chicks", watching Netflix and living it up, with "batty and breasts" thrown in as a nod to his personal preferences.

The chorus repeats the same greetings in multiple languages - "Hello, ahoy, ciao / Ni hao, bonjour, ciao / Guten tag, konnichiwa" - perhaps as a nod to his multicultural background, but more importantly, emphasizing the universal appeal of his happy-go-lucky mood.
