Flex
The lyrics to Eric Bellinger's song "Hype Beast" present the singer's admiration for his partner's love for fashion and luxury. The song's opening lines express how attracted he is to his partner when she stretches and arches her back, as he finds it "hella sexy." He further praises her shopping addiction and appreciation for high-priced, quality items from designers like Goyard. The chorus of the song encourages her to continuously flex, or show off her fashion pieces, and her confidence in doing so is what makes her a hype beast.
The song shows the love and admiration for a partner who prioritizes fashion and luxury, but also serves as a subtle commentary on the perils and pleasures of indulgence. While the singer loves how his partner can flex and shows off her prized possessions, it's also clear that she has an addiction to shopping and spending money that may not always be sustainable. The song walks a fine line between luxurious excess and potentially dangerous financial behavior.
