Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Uh, uh, Jigga Who?
Uh, uh, Jigga What?
Uh, uh, Jigga Who?
Uh, uh, Jigga What?
You gonna need a vocal here right?
Motherf***ers want to act loco, hit 'em wit', numerous
Faggots runnin' to the Po-Po's, smoke 'em like cocoa
F*** rap, coke by the boatload
F*** dat, on the run-by, gun high, one eye closed
Left holes through some guy clothes
Stop your bulls***tin', glock with the full clip
Motherf***ers better duck when the fool spit
One shot could make a n**** do a full flip
See the n**** layin' shocked when the bullet hit
And hey ma, how you, know n****'z want to buy you
But see me I want to f*** for free, like Akinyele
Take this ride 'til you feel it inside ya belly
If it's tight get the K-why Jelly
All night get you wide up inside the telly
Side to side, 'til you say Jay-Z you're too much for me
I am
A little bit of loneliness a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints but I can't help the fact
That everybody can see these scars
I am
What I want you to want what I want you to feel
But it's like no matter what I do I can't convince you
To just believe this is real
So I
Let go watching you turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here cause your all that I've got
Got a condo with nuttin' but condoms in it
The same place where the rhymes is invented
So all I do is rap and sex, imagine how I stroke
See how I was flowin' on my last ca**ette?
Rapid-fire like I'm blastin a tec, never jam though
Never get high, never run out of ammo
N****'z hatin' 'n' s*** cause I slayed your b****
You know your favorite, I know it made you sick
And now you're, actin' raw but you never had war
Don't know how to carry your hoe, want to marry your hoe
Now she's mad at me, cause your majesty, just happened to be
A pimp with a tragedy
She wanted, us to end, cause I f***ed her friend
She gave me one more chance and I f***ed her again
I seen her tears as she busted in, I said
"S*** there's a draft, shut the door b**** and come on in!"
I am
A little bit insecure a little unconfident
'Cause you don't understand I do what I can
But sometimes I don't make sense
I am
What you never want to say but I've never had a doubt
It's like no matter what I do I can't convince you
For once just to hear me out
So I
Let go watching you turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you're all that I've got
I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Now
Hear me out now
You're gonna listen to me, like it or not
Right now
Hear me out now
You're gonna listen to me, like it or not
Right now
I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
I can't feel
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
The lyrics to Jay-Z/Linkin Park's mashup song Jigga What/Faint are a mix of Jay-Z's rapping and Chester Bennington's angry, aggressive, and emotionally charged singing style. The song critiques society's obsession with violence, drugs, and sex. Jay-Z's verses are typical of his style, with a focus on guns, drugs, and women. Chester's singing, on the other hand, is more introspective and emotional, expressing feelings of insecurity, doubt, and pain.
The chorus of the song, "Jigga What? Jigga Who?" refers to Jay-Z's nickname among his fans and throughout the music industry. The lyrics also include references to Jay-Z's feuds with other rapper's like Nas and Mobb Deep.
In the verses, the lyrics describe violence, with Jay-Z rapping about shooting people with his gun, and Chester's singing about the emotional pain caused by a failed relationship. Both artists express frustration over not being understood or believed.
Despite the explicit content of the song, it was a commercial success and received positive reviews from critics. The song's fusion of rock and rap music also helped to popularize the genre of rap-rock.

So cool that they're still releasing music even if it's old it feel exciting
@AmazingJay909
It was this colab alone that made me appreciate both genres of music and all other sub genres that have branched from them. Mashup of that decade of music.
