Slightly left-of-center pop artist Kiiara is a breathy vocalist whose output falls somewhere between that of Jhenรฉ Aiko and Lorde. Born in May 24, 1995, The Wilmington, Illinois native previously recorded as Kiara Saulters and independently issued the homey acoustic pop song "Bring Me Back" in 2013. Eventually signed to major-label Atlantic, she worked with the Cataracs' Niles Hollowell-Dhar and David Singer-Vine, as well as Brenton Duvall and Felix Snow, and recorded Low Kii Savage. The EP, which alternated between downcast electronic pop and bass-heavy, trap-style rap production, was a radical change in direction. Preceded by the breakout single "Gold," it was released in March 2016.
The following year, she appeared on the Linkin Park single "Heavy," which broke into the Top 50 of Billboard's Hot 100 and peaked at number two on the Hot Rock Songs chart. Later that year, she issued the singles "Whippin" with Felix Snow and "Wishlist." After featuring on Cheat Codes' 2018 track, "Put Me Back Together," Kiiara released her own single, "Messy."

Whippin', whippin', whippin'
Whippin'
Don't hit me past one 'cause I might come
Pop a yellow bus, now I'm goin' dumb (yee)
If it's past two, I can't look at you (fuck it)
But I will 'cause you're too true
No-no-no, hey, I still fuck with you
It's good luck when I'm like, "Oh, what's up with you?"
Wrist, wrist, wrist, whippin' in the car with you
Whippin' in the car with you, you, you
Whippin' in the car with you, you, you
Whippin' in the car with you, you, you
Whippin' in the car with you, you, you
Wh-whippin', whippin'
Whippin', whippin', whippin'

Whippin' in the car with you
Whippin' in the car with you
Whippin' in the car with you, you, you
Whippin' in the car with you, you, you
Whippin' in the car with you, you, you
Whippin' in the car with you, you, you
Phone lit, past three, see you say what's up
Fuckboy, thought I told you not to hit me up
I got a problem and it sucks, boy
O.T., I'm in love with the fuckboys
I'm just bein' real, can I keep it real?
Way too many feels, way too many feels
Chanel bag, cop it, I don't fuckin' want it
I don't need that bullshit in your wallet
Whippin' in the car with you, you, you
Whippin' in the car with you, you, you

The lyrics to Kiiara's song "Whippin" are a mixture of different emotions and themes. The song is about a relationship that the singer is in, and the ups and downs that come with it. It starts off with the singer talking about how she doesn't want to be hit up past one, as she might do something crazy. Then, she talks about how she's got a problem and she's in love with the "fuckboys." She seems to be struggling with her feelings towards her partner, as she admits that she has too many feelings and she's just trying to be real.
The chorus of the song is about the singer and her partner "whippin" in the car together. This could be taken literally, meaning they're driving around together, or it could be a metaphor for something else, like chasing their dreams together. The repeated use of the word "whippin" also adds to the intensity and excitement of the song.
The second verse starts off with the singer talking about her phone being lit up past three, and how she's not interested in hearing from certain people. She then goes on to talk about material possessions, and how she doesn't need her partner to buy her things. The song ends with the chorus being repeated multiple times.
Overall, the lyrics to "Whippin" are quite ambiguous and open to interpretation. The song seems to be about a tumultuous relationship, but the exact details are left up for the listener to interpret.
