Heard About Me

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah, yeah
I'm not saying I'm a saint
But I know what games I play
And I know what games I don't (ayy, ayy)
And I don't say that I'm complete
But I know what classy means
Sitting there in your fast cars, windows down
Bad songs blasting out
Cat calls but you don't know my name
I don't know what you heard about me
But you won't get me out on that D
Boy, your hustle tricks are so cheap
You're just a mother-effing P-I-M-P
I don't know what you heard about me
But you won't get me out on that D
Boy, your hustle tricks are so cheap
You're just a mother-effing P-I-M-P (woo)
(Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go)
Do you think it's that easy? (Easy)
Do you think you gon' get me? (Get me)
Just been telling me you want me (want me)
I'm sorry, not sorry, no
Come on, boy, what happened to your manners?
Come on, boy, it know what really matters, yeah
Well you won't get to me
Sitting there in your fast cars, windows down
Bad songs blasting out
Cat calls but you don't know my name
You don't know my name
I don't know what you heard about me (no)
But you won't get me out on that D
Boy, your hustle tricks are so cheap
You're just a mother-effing P-I-M-P (no, no)
I don't know what you heard about me
But you won't get me out on that D
Boy, your hustle tricks are so cheap
You're just a mother-effing P-I-M-P (woo)
I don't know what you heard about me
But you won't get me out on that D
Boy, your hustle tricks are so cheap
You're just a mother-effing P-I-M-P
I don't know what you heard about me
But you won't get me out on that D
Boy, your hustle tricks are so cheap
You're just a mother-effing P-I-M-P
In "Heard About Me" by Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Felix Jaehn, and Nea, the song's narrator takes on an unimpressed tone as they address a potential suitor. They make it clear that despite not claiming to be perfect themselves, they know the difference between class and crass - and the suitor they are addressing falls into the latter category. The singer paints a vivid picture of this suitor - sitting in their fast car, blasting bad music, and making crude catcalls without even knowing the singer's name.
The chorus is where the song's message really hits home, as the singer repeats that they don't know what the suitor has heard about them, but they won't be impressed by cheap tricks. This is emphasized by the acronym P-I-M-P (which stands for "pimp"), but rather than being glamorized, it's used to dismiss the suitor as nothing more than a faker trying to impress with hollow gestures.
Overall, "Heard About Me" is a powerful message of self-respect and not falling for empty promises. It reminds listeners that they deserve better than someone who tries to impress with material possessions and gimmicks, and that true class goes beyond superficial displays.

Уже разів 30 переслухав, неможливо наслухатись. Супер саунд, супер енергетика, голос прекрасно лягає на звук, під цю пісню неможливо сидіти на стільці, ноги самі несуть танцювати та співати.
