Sellin' mobile dopes cause I gotta make a dollar
Finna drop the top of my Rag-Top-Trey Impala

So Bon Voyage I gots the stack




And I'm out swords, nigga, but I'll be back

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Kokane's song "Aftermath" can be best described as a display of gangster poetry. The song opens with an introduction to the "underworld" called the "Aftermath," where a group of "underground lunatics" with destructive missions have come together. The song is a warning to "bitches and whores" to beware of what lurks in the "bucklers" and a chance for real "gangsters" to come correct. The lyrics use violence, murder, and raw language to create a tone of intimidation. It is a display of the criminal mindset and the rat race for power.


Kokane's use of language and the allusions to violence and drugs place him in a particular category of gangster rap. The song also refers to other famous figures of the time, such as Rodney King and Emmitt Smith. The use of these cultural references adds a level of authenticity to the song and helped to make it popular at the time.


While there is a level of controversy surrounding the violent and graphic nature of the lyrics in "Aftermath," the underlying rhythms and beats of the song capture the essence of "Westcoast" and "Eastcoast" funk. It is a trajectory of hip hop's evolution, and captures the sentiment of the time. It is a song that should be viewed through the lens of its time, rather than modern sensibilities.
