Ice Cream
Raekwon w/ Ghostface Killah Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ma, Ma
Throw down some money
The ice cream man is coming

Yo, Shaolin's finest
What up, Boo? Peace your highness
Let's rewind this
Both get naked and kill the shyness
Wu Tang's timeless, blow out your sinus
Sweet talk that ass into bed, kill 'em with kindness
I'm thinking we should fuck again
Get back to the sucking and
Freak shit, all on the road we keep truckin' in
Bottle of rose, double G's on the sneaker
Let me slide in, love, I got respect like Aretha

Ice cream
Ice cream

Watch these rap dudes slide all up in your texts
French vanilla, butter pecan, we complex
Even caramel sundaes, they gon' flex
Scooped in the ice cream truck, let's have sex

My tenderoni, she was young when I first wet her
Lil' niggas from the hood used to upset her
I'm from the era of blowing kisses and love letters
Big wheels and skates, now I'm skating on big wheels
Lovin' my honey buns and I'm givin' 'em big thrills
We build and destroy, it's different how shit feel
When them boys turn to men, dick shit get real
Look at my shorty and get clapped with the steel
Hit with the Jason
These save-a-ho niggas is fuck facin'
Lard niggas, pure bacon
Doo-doo head, fed nigga think he down with my clique clique
Homicide housing, sometimes I fuck me a quick bitch
It's the goony hillbilly drip
Hashtag Ruck Juice
And we don't give a fuck about none of y'all, fuck you
The odd couple all night
Fuckin' honeys on sight
Chick like to sing on my dick just like a long mic

Ice cream
Ice cream

Yo, yo, your honey dip, summertime, fine jewelry drippin'
It's been a minute, let your boy get back up in it
No fake digits, no ex, to the next, let's text
Meet up at the spot and have sex
Low specs, big jewels hangin' off the Cuban
Wrist iced up, the hotel room is boomin'
Boozin', buttnaked in the jacuzz', we coolin'

Ice cream

Watch these rap dudes slide all up in your texts
French vanilla, butter pecan, we complex




Even caramel sundaes, they gon' flex
And scooped in the ice cream truck, let's have sex

Overall Meaning

"Ice Cream" by Raekwon feat. Ghostface Killah is a song with a sexual theme that revolves around different ice cream flavors. The opening lines are a reference to the iconic jingle of the ice cream truck that the duo wants to seduce women. They boast about their sexual prowess and invite their partners to embrace their urges. Ghostface Killah talks about his girlfriend whom he calls "my tenderoni" and how he has been with her since they were young. They rap about various ice cream flavors like french vanilla, butter pecan, and caramel sundaes, as metaphors for something sexual. They want to have sex with their partners, and the ice cream metaphors create a playful atmosphere implying that sex can be as fun and satisfying as eating ice cream.


The lyrics are explicit and raw, but they are also playful and evoke light-heartedness. The use of ice cream as a metaphor for sex is creative, and it adds to the song's appeal. The song's chorus line, "Watch these rap dudes slide all up in your texts," is a reference to the then-emerging trend of sending flirty text messages to seduce women. The song's upbeat tempo and smooth flow are complemented by the sweet and creamy music that adds to the sensual appeal.

It's good but not in the top 20.
Above the clouds,
Full clip,
Liquid Swords,
Bang your head (underdog remix),
1-800 suicide,
Furious anger,
Can it be all so simple,
How will I make it,
The worst,
For what it was,
The projects PJays,
Over here,
Les coulisses de l'angoisse,
Mon clan,
Entrer dans la légende,
Cherche pas à comprendre,
Shit squad (live au dome de marseille 2003),
La cavale,
Les petites annonces du carnages,
Le cuir d'une valise usée,
24 heures à vivre

See? not in the top 20 :)

I love Dudes flow for sure. You know this dude was str8 Pimp before.
His flow on that Ghostface track is still to this very day the best bar dropped imo..
Every verse dude had in those early Wu solo albums was epic.
~Haven't listened to his solo album in detail yet. My 1st listen i wasnt impressed but im gonna go at it again 4sure.
I think The Rza changed when he finally dropped U-god,,inspectahDecks & Capps albums..
I was also not impressed with Inspectah Decks 1st album. I thought for sure id be blown away by it but i wasn't.
I refuse to accpet defeat and gonna relisten..
And i cant even find U-gods 1st album..
If you got a link to the torrent then hit me up.

THIS was the era. You have Wu-Tang, Biggie, Nas, Mobb Deep, 2Pac, Dogg Pound, Lost Boyz, Outkast, Goodie MOB all releasing music in the same calendar year! And you can play the whole CD. Just pop it in and go on a journey

@slikron8536
