The song "Basic" by Jah Vinci talks about loyalty and staying true to oneself. He embraces his "basic" friends who have been with him since his school days and who remain his closest allies. He acknowledges the things that they've been through together, such as carrying guns with thirty rounds and their love for butter and bread. He celebrates his popularity, saying he updates his style regularly and knows how to please the ladies. He braggingly talks about his ability to please women, even to the point that they experience muscle pain. He doesn't shy away from discussing his criminal activities, including customizing his Bimma and capturing money as a trap lord. He looks down on those who choose to run from women or badmind, instead preferring to stand his ground like a strong man.
Overall, the song is about being loyal to the people who have been with us through everything and not being ashamed of our beginnings or values. It is a call to appreciate the people who have been there for us, celebrate our own unique style, and not be afraid to embrace what makes us who we are.
