Overall Meaning

The song "Wah Kind" by Frisco Kid is about the experience of illegal activity, particularly gun violence and drug use, in locations where police presence is low or nonexistent. The lyrics suggest that the singer and his peers engage in such activity freely, without fear of retribution, and are willing to stand up to law enforcement when necessary. The title of the song is derived from Caribbean slang, specifically Jamaican Patois, and means "what kind of".


The song's chorus repeats the refrain "When we bus wi things wi nuh run weh", which roughly translates to "when we use our guns, we don't run away". The use of patois adds to the song's authenticity, as the language is heavily associated with the culture of Jamaica and the Caribbean. The lyrics also reference specific neighborhoods and events where such illegal activity takes place, such as Tivoli and Easter Friday.


The lyrics suggest a level of defiance and resistance to authority, with the singer stating that they will not back down from their actions even in the face of police intervention. The song paints a picture of an environment where violence is commonplace and where aggression is used as a means of survival. The song can be seen as a commentary on the social and economic conditions in urban areas where access to resources is limited and illegal activity becomes a means of subsistence.
