Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Turn me up yo uh yo
I step up in the club like, who the fuck's that?
Yeah bitch it's another king, ninja's back
Pants sagging down you can see my butt crack
Sagging so low you can see my nut sack
Yeah motherfucker my flows are ill, my balls fat and sweaty
Like Jonah Hill, you know the deal
Your boy ninja got skill, like deep throat
There's cum squirting out your nostrils

Dude what are you doing?
Dude that sounds totally gay
What are you, what are you talking about?
It just sounds gay, dude
What sounds gay?
Like, the last line, where you say like, the
The, the "deep throat" thing it sounds like "cum squirting out your nostrils", that's what you said
But not, uh, fuck, dude, it's like if you, I'm saying like the chick
What are you saying?
Uh, like the chick, like skill like a girl who can give deep throat
Nah, I don't get it, god what do you think?
God Do you think it sounds gay?
Uh, yeah, nah, it does sound a bit gay
But dude you are gay
Exactly so he would know
Yeah just a bit gay
He would know if it sounds gay or not
I thought it was gay




Okay, let me ask muggs, let me ask muggs
Muggs, muggs dude does this sound gay?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Jonah Hill" by Die Antwoord speak to the rapper's confidence and prowess in the club scene. The opening lines assert the artist's presence and authority, using provocative language to highlight the singer's bold style. The reference to Jonah Hill's genitalia reinforces this confident, in-your-face attitude and hints at the rapper's sexuality. The second half of the verse introduces a dialogue that complicates the narrative around the song's explicit themes. The singer's interlocutors critique his use of language, calling out perceived homoeroticism and prompting the rapper to clarify his intentions.


On one level, the lyrics to "Jonah Hill" represent a straightforward celebration of hedonistic excess and braggadocio. The rapper flaunts his sexual potency and status in the club using provocative, graphic language. However, the inclusion of the dialogue between the rapper, his friend, and "God" complicates this narrative. The exchange suggests that the rapper is aware of the charged nature of his lyrics and the potential for misinterpretation or backlash. Additionally, the inclusion of "God" as a character in the discussion highlights the potentially problematic nature of the rapper's overtly sexual lyricism.


Overall, "Jonah Hill" by Die Antwoord is a provocative and challenging song that explores themes of sexuality, excess, and confidence in the club scene. The inclusion of a dialogue between characters within the song adds nuance and complexity to the lyrics and invites listeners to engage critically with the rapper's message.
