Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Depuis que j'ai fait "bouger tes fesses"
J'ai peur que le quartier me délaisse (yo les gars)
C'est Hip-Hop de rue contre R&B
Ces Négro tests, nous traitent de lovers, mais laisse
On reste solide dans notre bizness
Tous les jours j' le vis, alors j'en parle j' me fous d' ce qu'ils disent oh oh
Qu'on kiffe parler de sexe pour faire mouiller les meufs, idiots
Dans l'ghetto ghetto, tous les MC testent les News Jacks illico oh !
C'est le même "dieze" Papy
Alors tu dis quoi de ça, yeah yeah
Chorus:
De Paname aux US Lauss (yo les gars)
De la East à la West Coast (c'est le ghetto)
Eh Mamy (R&B de rue bouge tes seuffs)
Yo PAPY cri juste (oh oh oh oh oh oh)
De la East a la West coast (yo nigga)
En baggy ou Levi's Strauss (c'est le guetto les gars)
Eh Mamy (R&B de rue bouge tes seufs)
Yo Papy cri juste (oh oh oh oh oh oh)
J'suis aussi Hip-Hop que toi renoi
Je squatte mon Redman et mon Ruff Rider
Mais allongé avec ma go, je préfère... sur un disque de Joe tu le sais
On est dans le même camp toi et moi, Negro
Alors MC remballe ton égo
J'me fous des on dit "player O.G", c'est le même "ce-vi" oh oh
Chorus:
Dans l'ghetto ghetto, tout l' monde dit qu' le R&B n'est pas du hip-hop ohoh
Qu'on kiffe parler de sexe pour faire mouiller les meufs, idiots
Dans l'ghetto ghetto, tous les MC testent les News Jacks illico, oh !
C'est le même "dieze" Papy
Alors tu dis quoi de ça, yeah yeah
De Paname aux US Laus (yo les gars)
De la East a la West coast (c'est le ghetto)

Yo Papy cri juste (oh oh oh oh oh oh)
De la East a la West coast (yo nigga)
En baggy ou Levi's Strauss (c'est le ghetto les gars)
Eh Mamy (R&B de rue bouge tes seufs)
Yo Papy cri juste (oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Chorus x2
The song "R&B De Rue" by Matt Houston is an ode to the Hip-Hop and R&B scene of the streets. The lyrics speak about the stigmas attached to R&B in the ghetto, and how it is often considered lesser than Hip-Hop. The artist talks about his fear of being rejected by his neighborhood after making a R&B song that made all the ladies dance. He defends R&B as being just as important to the culture and music scene as Hip-Hop. He mentions the criticism faced by R&B for talking about sexuality, but he dismisses it as idiotic. The artist further talks about his preference for R&B when it comes to his personal choice.
The song has a catchy chorus that encourages people to let loose and dance to R&B. The lyrics speak to the R&B fans who love to groove to the beats, wear baggy clothes or Levi's and belong to the same camp as Hip-Hop fans. The message of the song is that both genres of music are equally important and should be celebrated as such. The lyrics also encourage people not to worry about what others say and enjoy the music they love.
