Location Remote
Curren$y Freddie Gibbs & The Alchemist Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, la la la

East side, laboratory coats, testing the dope
I'm in a location remote, Ivory Coast
Tryna get high as I can go, the glass ceiling broke
It's never over, sole controller, all our chains golder
Diamonds brighter, you ain't gotta ask whose live-r
Niggas dyin' to be like us, losin' they minds tryin'
I'm in the basement scrapin' blades with all my sharpenin' irons
'Cause in times of peace that's when these snake niggas creep
You think you safe 'cause you deep, your goonies half sleep
Stooges if you ask me
Gibbs and Andretti fill that vault full of Fetti
Andretti and Gibbs that's like that barrel to your rib
It's that fucking real (Yup)

Yeah
Eastside
Eastside, nigga fuck the peace sign
Yeah, yeah

Ay yo
Call the chiropractor, this necklace is extra heavy on me
1963 Gold D's, I went Andretti on it
Dipped the shoes in 24 karats and dropped a Chevy on it
Boss, fuck a franchise tag, niggas can't Le'Veon me
Yeah, 'cause of a bitch I had to sit the bench
L train blessed me you broke me off when I hit the bricks
Passing off the dog bitch I scored the dope and I get assist
Kidnapping IG trapping might get your sister hit
We taping mamas up, we filling them llamas up
Niggas making statements they Manafort Papadopoulos
Trump sweating bullets on Diet Coke sniffing powder up
And if he build the wall we gone bring that dope underground with us
Told my nigga Spitta your enemies my enemies
I just solar powered up the Model X
Real nigga keep same energy, like what
I rep the pack like I'm Stunna Man
Legend in this bitch, might do Coachella as a hologram, nigga

That is just exactly what they want you to believe
Let's just call it the phenomena
He outranks them
He, he outranks them




Sit down
I don't wanna sit, I want my money

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Location Remote" by Curren$y,Freddie Gibbs, and The Alchemist speak to the dangers and challenges of the drug game. The song opens with a reference to laboratory coats and testing the dope, suggesting that these men are involved in the production or sale of drugs. The line "I'm in a location remote, Ivory Coast" further emphasizes their desire to remain hidden and difficult to find. The next lines describe their goal of getting as high as possible, with the metaphor of a glass ceiling breaking suggesting that they are exceeding their previous limits. The rest of the song speaks to the dangers they face in this world, with references to snakes and stooges who would try to steal from or harm them. The chorus repeats the Eastside location, adding an aggressive "fuck the peace sign" to suggest that these men are not afraid to use violence to protect themselves and their business.


Overall, the song provides a bleak, realistic look into the world of drug dealing. The desire for power and wealth is tempered by the constant danger and the need to protect oneself and one's territory. The Eastside location is a symbol of this world, both a physical place and a state of mind where violence and drugs reign supreme.

@fredtylertx14 Alchemist is top 3, if not my top producer. Gibbs is my second favourite underrated artist, only behind Royce 5'9. This album was meant for me, so I'm super bias, but SO GOOD! "Call the chiropractor this necklace is extra heavy on me. 1963 gold d's, I went andretti on 'em"




"Kidnappin' IG trappin' might get ya sista hit"


"and if he build a wall we gunna bring that dope underground with us"

"what, I wrap the pack like a stunna man, might do Choachella as a hologram"



@9pmKingGo2sleep

I hid the cadaver of a back stabber

Left his corpse on a gravel slab

Then doused his appendages in kerosene

Let em burn baby burn no need for an urn

Then pissed on the remains his soul departed in vain

No remorse because my Spirit is untamed

Epic tune, both Curren$y and Freddie deliver quality bars, on repeat all day... Fetti

@riodejaneiro1118

FINALLY! Something to add to my personal mix right behind โ€œScottie Pippensโ€...Real ones know. They catch feelings...We catch flights.

โ€œIโ€™m in the location, remote.โ€

@BluWarta92

Scottie Pippens is so underrated, just like Currency is. Alchemist + Currency + Freddie is pure fucking magic.

@Wolfdragon92584

Curren$y is still my favorite rapper ever. His rhymes float in a ghostly manner over the beats. Very atmospheric and at times, haunting.
