Overall Meaning

These lyrics are from Kid Cudi's song "What Is It" featuring Lil Wayne. The lyrics are essentially Lil Wayne listing off a number of achievements he still wants to attain, including winning a Grammy and an Emmy, meeting famous women such as Angelina Jolie and Oprah Winfrey, and even jokingly suggesting he wants to be the next President of the United States and have Sarah Palin as his running mate. Lil Wayne also expresses his appreciation for women who wear glasses and jokes about them falling off during intimate activities. He ends the verse by making a sexual reference and offering to "make it juicy" for someone.


Despite the seemingly light-hearted and humorous nature of these lyrics, there are underlying themes about the American dream, fame, and sexuality. The lyrics suggest that even someone as successful as Lil Wayne still has goals and aspirations they want to achieve, regardless of how unrealistic they may seem. Additionally, his comments about women and their glasses can be seen as objectifying and disrespectful, perpetuating harmful stereotypes about women's appearances.


Overall, these lyrics reveal Lil Wayne's larger-than-life persona and his desire to continue pushing the boundaries of fame and success.
