Overall Meaning

The song "Gold Digger" by Kanye West and Prince Fatty featuring Jamie Foxx tells a story of a man who is in a relationship with a woman who only wants him for his money. The chorus emphasizes this as Jamie Foxx sings, "She take my money when I'm in need, yeah, she's a trifling friend indeed, oh, she's a gold digger, way over town that digs on me." However, the man is also aware that he is not the only one in this situation as he sings, "Now I ain't saying she a gold digger, but she ain't messing with no broke niggas," and repeats this line multiple times throughout the song. It appears that the man is already trapped in the relationship as he describes the lavish lifestyle he is expected to provide for his girlfriend and even takes responsibility for this as he says, "I gotta take all they bad ass to showbiz."


The first verse describes how the man met the woman at a beauty salon, where he learned that she was looking for someone who is wealthy. He describes his search for the perfect woman with an ass like Serena Williams and lists other celebrities, but claims that he still loves the gold digger. The second verse talks about how the man is financially drained by the woman, who takes advantage of his money and his love for her. The line "18 years" repeats throughout this verse and references how long the woman will receive child support payments from the man. The third verse is a defense of the woman, with the man saying that she has needs and only wants to be taken care of. He also argues that the man who is with her should be supportive of her, no matter how she takes advantage of him.


Overall, "Gold Digger" is a song about the complexities of love and money, with a focus on how people can be deceived or deceive others for their own gain. It also highlights the societal expectations around wealth and power and how people are sometimes judged on superficial factors like money rather than their true worth.

Cutie The Bomb Met Her At A Beauty Salon With A Baby Louis Vuitton Under Her Underarm She Said I Can Tell You Roc I Can Tell By Ya Charm Far As Girls You Got A Flock I Can Tell By Ya Charm And Ya Arm But I'm Lookin For The One Have You Seen Her My Psychic Told Me She Have A Ass Like Serena Trina, Jennifer Lopez, Four Kids An I Gotta Take All They Bad Ass To Show-Biz.
I met a really attractive woman at a beauty salon carrying designer bags and she immediately saw that I'm charming and have many female admirers. However, I'm only interested in a particular woman with a curvy figure like tennis player Serena Williams or musicians Trina and Jennifer Lopez, who already has four kids that I'm willing to take to show-business.


Ok Get Ya Kids But Then They Got Their Friends I Pulled Up In The Benz, They All Got Up In. We All Went To Den And Then I Had To Pay If You FKin With This Girl Then You Betta Be Payed You Know Why It Take Too Much To Touch Her >From What I Heard She Got A Baby By Busta My Best Friend Say She Use To Fuck Wit Usher I Dont Care What None Of Yall Say I Still Love Her Now I Aint Sayin She A Gold Digger(When I'm Need)
I picked up the woman's kids and their friends in my luxury car and we all went to a restaurant for a meal I had to pay for. I've heard rumors that she has a baby with the rapper Busta Rhymes, and my best friend has told me that she used to sleep with Usher. However, I don't care what anyone says, I still love her. Again, I'm not accusing her of being a gold digger when I need her.


18 Years, 18 Years She Got One Of Yo Kids Got You For 18 Years I Know Somebody Payin Child Support For One Of His Kids His Baby Momma's Car And Crib Is Bigger Than His You Will See Him On Tv Any Given Sunday Win The Superbowl And Drive Off In A Hyundai She Was Spose To Buy Ya Shorty Tyco With Ya Money She Went To The Doctor Got Lypo With Ya Money She Walkin Around Lookin Like Micheal With Ya Money Should Of Got That Insured Geico For Ya Moneeey If You Aint No Punk Holla We Want Prenup We Want Prenup!, Yeaah It's Something That You Need To Have Cause When She Leave Yo Ass She Gone Leave With Half And On Her 18th Birthday He Found Out It Wasn't His
A man has been paying child support for one of the woman's kids for 18 years and she has a more expensive car and house than he does. While he's playing football on TV, his wife drives off in his less flashy car. She was supposed to buy the man's child a toy car with his money, but she instead got liposuction to remove fat, now walking resembling Michael Jackson. The man should have insured his money--like Geico insures cars--against the woman's manipulation. If he's not a coward, he should demand a prenup. If he doesn't, when she leaves him, she'll take half of what he has in the divorce settlement. He found out the child isn't his on the girl's eighteenth birthday.


Now I Aint Sayin You A Gold Digger You Got Needs
I'm not saying that you're a gold digger, but you have financial needs.


You Dont Want Ya Dude To Smoke But He Can't Buy Weed
You don't want your guy to be a smoker, but you don't help him to buy any other substance for relaxation.


You Got Out To Eat And He Cant Pay Yall Cant Leave There's Dishes In The Back, He Gotta Roll Up His Sleeves But Why Yall Washin Watch Him He Gone Make It Into A Benz Out Of That Datson
You go out to eat, but he can't pay for it. You're both stuck there and he has to wash the kitchen equipment as part of his job. However, notice how good he is at it and you'll see how he could turn trash into treasure, just like he will turn his old Datsun car into a sporty Benz.


He Got That Ambition Baby Look In His Eyes This Week He Moppin Floorz Next Week It's The Fries So, Stick By His Side I Know This Dude's Ballin But Yea Thats Nice And They Gone Keep Callin And Tryin But You Stay Right Girl But When You Get On He Leave Yo Ass For A White Girl
This man has high aspirations and you can see it in his eyes. This week he's just mopping floors, soon he'll be operating the fryer. Stick by his side, because despite his success, he'll be called and approached by other women, but you should stay with him. However, if you ever leave him, per chance, he will leave you for a caucasion woman.
