When Lil B titled his last digital label released mixtape I'm Gay, he received several death threats. Although he is heterosexual, he says the title is a message of support to the LGBT community. Referring to the alternative definition of gay, he says he is gay because he is happy. Following the death threats, he added "I'm Happy" in parenthesis to the album's title. I'm Gay received positive reviews with many fans commenting on the album's wide variety of positive messages and noting the unique beats and lyrical styles not common to mainstream hip hop. He raps about many controversial issues including race relations, poverty, humanity, and the justice system. The album also, according to many fans, shows the "true" side of Lil B. It entered the Billboard R&B/Hip Hop Albums chart at #56 and the Heatseekers Albums chart at #20 for the week of July 16, 2011. It is for sale on iTunes but Lil B also uploaded it to the Internet for free, posting a link to it on Twitter and Facebook saying, "for all my fans who don't have $10 to buy my album, here it is for free."
Lil B typically releases at least one mixtape every month; so far in 2012 he has released 13 mixtapes - 4 in July alone. One of those released in July was the massive 848-song, nearly 5GB collection of Based Freestyles, which is his largest release to date. In 2013, hip-hop listeners voted Lil B as the greatest rapper of all time.
Bitch Mob Killah
Lil B Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They hating on the realest
This is way past my feelings
That I couldn't even deal with
Yet they make me who I am something to
My mind based World got my back
I swear to god I love this life
Niggas push me to the limit
Do these niggas really hate me?
I'm lonely, choppers in my house
If they scar my face with them
They know love in the game
I'm gonna split a bitch, real
Killah
Sit 'em down, lay 'em down
My blue eyes, so nice
My half, knock 'em down
Knock the other niggas that
Are playing around y'all make me stay split
Game is getting changed now
Niggas think this is a game
Stay in your fuckin' lane
Hol' back, don't do that
Karma's shit, it's so real
I pray to god, whoever that is, and
This was before they killed my family
In the world
There are things that I care about
And you stuck in the ozone
I put a strap in your mouth, bitch
Baby, Killah killah, Killah
In the first paragraph, Lil B expresses a sense of forgiveness towards those who have wronged him, but also a desire to retaliate and "kill them." He acknowledges that there are people who hate on him, but he sees their hate as something that shapes him and makes him who he is. Despite the negativity he encounters, he still loves his life and feels thankful for the support he receives from his "mind-based world." However, he also feels pushed to his limits by others, prompting him to question whether these people truly hate him. He admits to feeling lonely and having weapons ("choppers") in his house, suggesting a readiness to defend himself. The line "If they scar my face with them / They know love in the game / I'm gonna split a bitch, real" implies that if someone were to physically harm him, he would respond forcefully.
In the second paragraph, Lil B switches gears and adopts a more aggressive tone. He instructs others to "sit 'em down, lay 'em down" and asserts his dominance by referring to his "blue eyes." He seems to be speaking to those who are playing around or not taking things seriously, warning them to stay in their lane and not provoke him. He believes in the concept of karma, emphasizing its realness. Lil B mentions praying to God, although he questions who or what exactly God is. He alludes to a traumatic event where his family was killed, indicating that he has endured significant pain and tragedy. Despite all this, he has things in the world that he cares about, but he views those who are stuck in their own problems ("stuck in the ozone") as insignificant. The final line suggests a threat, with Lil B stating his willingness to use violence by putting a gun ("strap") in someone's mouth if necessary.
The repetition of "Killah" in the third paragraph serves as an emphasis of Lil B's aggressive mindset. He reinforces the idea of killing and declares himself a "killah." He instructs others to "lay 'em down" again, emphasizing his intent to harm those who oppose him. Lil B's mention of his "blue eyes" can be interpreted as a metaphor for his piercing and intimidating gaze. He warns people not to challenge him, as he believes in the power of karma, implying that any negative actions will come back to haunt them. Lil B's reference to the past loss of his family shows that he carries emotional weight and pain, further fueling his aggression. He distances himself from those who are not on the same level as him, telling them to stay in their own lane. The final line is a derogatory term directed at someone, indicating his readiness to take violent action.
Overall, these lyrics showcase Lil B's complex emotions and experiences. On one hand, he expresses forgiveness and love for his life, but on the other hand, he harbors intense anger and a desire for revenge against those who have wronged him. The lyrics also touch on themes of loneliness, self-defense, and the impact of traumatic events on his psyche. Lil B's aggressive stance and references to violence are driven by a belief in karma and a need to protect himself.
