Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gets gets, gets getsa
Ba re ke kwa bose kudu kudu (kudu kudu)
Ba re ke kwa bose kudu kudu (kudu kudu)
Ba re ke kwa bose kudu kudu (kudu kudu)
Ba re ke kwa bose kudu kudu (kudu kudu)
Babize bonke e Maf Town
Berekisa mala like mogodu san
S'yenz inyakanyaka ngicela nikhuzul okunjani
Re o kenya mahlo
Akere o behave-a ekare o sefofu san
They say the love my songs, I be cynical
Ke na le s'bete sa ho bodisa letshingilane
And ha ke yo go bona boPaulina, boSweety bam
Ke shapa shower-nyana be ke polish-a mshini wam
A o shape vluit if you hood enough
And everyday boy we suited up
If you got a Family Tree shirt, put it up
Thenga Five Skippa usbonise ukthi ugood enough
Mara nou yana re monate
Re batla biyanyana fela le mazothi
Smartphone one side, paparazzi
A diUber di late bana re ba tlatse
Gets gets, gets getsa
Gets gets, gets getsa
Ba re ke kwa bose kudu kudu (kudu kudu)
Ba re ke kwa bose kudu kudu (kudu kudu)
Ba re ke kwa bose kudu kudu (kudu kudu)
Ba re ke kwa bose kudu kudu (kudu kudu)
They love and hate every song I play
Ko dibesheng ke koo o ka ntholang teng
I wanna buy a Ferrari just so I say
Abanye ba ne 4-5, ngine 458
O ska ba jinda ba go juta papa
We been cooler van tuka papa
Ha ba re bona ba kutsa papa
Re utswa bana nkare MTN e utswa data
Ha ba sa ntshe ra ba latlha boy
We stay prepared, ungathath' amachance
I'm from the A if they ask y'all punks
You can clearly see that I'm African
Like squad sa France
Mara mara nou yana re monate
Re batla biyanyana fela le mazothi
Smartphone one side, paparazzi
A diUber di late bana re ba tlatse
Gets gets, gets getsa
Gets gets, gets getsa
Ba re ke kwa bose kudu kudu (kudu kudu)
Ba re ke kwa bose kudu kudu (kudu kudu)
Ba re ke kwa bose kudu kudu (kudu kudu)
Ba re ke kwa bose kudu kudu (kudu kudu)
The lyrics of Cassper Nyovest’s “Gets Getsa 2.0” are filled with cultural references and playful wordplay that captures the essence of South African street culture. “Gets Getsa” is a colloquial phrase that means “to hustle,” which is a central theme of the song. The chorus repeats the phrase “gets gets” over and over again, emphasizing the idea of grinding hard to succeed in life. The rest of the song is a braggadocious celebration of Cassper’s hard work and success, as well as a nod to his love for his hometown of Mafikeng.
Throughout the song, Cassper drops numerous references to South African street culture, from the “nyakanyaka” (a slang term for a party) to the “mshini wam” (a slang term for a gun). He also makes a reference to the popular South African mince dish “mogodu,” comparing it to the success he’s achieved through his own hard work. The second verse is particularly playful, with Cassper boasting about his fashion sense and urging listeners to wear their Family Tree shirts if they have them. He also references the popular South African ride-sharing service Uber, highlighting the struggles of living in a country where transportation can be unreliable.
Overall, “Gets Getsa 2.0” is a fun and upbeat anthem that celebrates the hustle and the culture of South Africa. It’s a testament to Cassper Nyovest’s skill as both a rapper and a cultural ambassador, and its catchy chorus and infectious beat have made it a hit with South African audiences.
