The lyrics to Ray J feat. Ludacris's song "Celebration" are all about having a good time and living life to the fullest. From the very start of the chorus, the lyrics make it clear that this is a song meant to be heard at parties, nightclubs, and other big events that call for a lot of noise and excitement. The theme is a celebration, and the lyrics encourage listeners to pop bottles, do it big, and always strive for the number one spot so that even the haters will follow.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of fame and success, with lines like "do it big like the movie" and references to celebrities being in the VIP section. However, it's important to note that the focus is more on the experience of having fun and being surrounded by people who are also enjoying themselves, rather than on any kind of status or achievement.
Throughout the song, the verses and chorus both emphasize the idea of raising glasses and toasting to getting money, which could be interpreted in a few different ways. On the one hand, it could be a straightforward reference to wanting to be financially successful and to enjoy the fruits of that success. However, there's also an element of celebrating the fact that the partygoers are able to afford to be in this setting in the first place—to have the time, energy, and resources to go out, drink expensive liquor, and dance until the early hours of the morning.
Overall, "Celebration" is a song that's all about letting loose and enjoying life, regardless of the specifics of the situation. Whether you're partying with friends in a club, on a fancy boat in the middle of the ocean, or just dancing around your living room with a bottle of champagne, the message is clear: celebrate like there's no tomorrow.
