Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Props To Tha Queen Of Pop A.K.A. Keep On Climbin' That Velvet Rope Baby by Reggie and the Full Effect have an interesting story behind them. The song pays homage to Janet Jackson, the Queen of Pop, who has been a significant influence on the music industry for several decades. The opening lines of the song, "No my first name ain't baby, It's Janet, Miss Jackson if you're nasty" are a nod to Jackson's hit song "Nasty" and playfully remind the listeners of her diva status.


The song is a reflection of the admiration and support the artist has for Jackson, encouraging her to keep climbing the ladder of success. The reference to the "velvet rope" symbolizes the barriers that she had to overcome as a woman of color in the music industry. Despite facing prejudice and being underrepresented as a black artist, Janet Jackson broke stereotypes and achieved her dreams, and this song embodies the artist's appreciation for her tenacity and dedication.
