You about to see my darkside when them goons come around and kill you
Fuck around and up that 40 let it bang bang ya we gonna spill you
Shorty wanna fuck on the kid, but I don't give a fuck bout a bitch yeah
Tryna take me on a trip, but you only smoking on mids dawg
Writing a check, to get on a jet, shorty wanna fuck and I'm down down
God dammit I'm blessed
You know that I'm next and shorty been stressed of that loud loud
You know that I'm dripping I'm killing this shit like a villain
I'm hitting your bitch and she really wanna get it
She lickin the tip and I'm runnin up numbers, yuh don't give a shit
You don't wanna see me and my goons on the darkside
Leave my opposition underground, feeling hog-tied
Bitch its been a minute we been up, been a long ride
Best not catch you lackin' doing jobs for the wrong side
You don't wanna see me and my goons on the darkside
Leave my opposition underground, feeling hog-tied
Bitch its been a minute we been up, been a long ride
Best not catch you lackin' doing jobs for the wrong side
Dark as it gets
Back on my shit again, turned off the lights and I murdered a beat
Going berserk, put in that work, put in my time, and now they pay the fee
Ain't nothing free, dealing with a heartless artist, you don't wanna start this
Targets locked, I dialled in my sights, ain't going out till one of us dies, uh
Follow notice what I post this week, bitch you be on my dick
You just watchin' and creepin' tryna keep up, you all up in my shit
Whole gang poppin' and y'all still standing still, you prolly should just quit
You don't want to get on my darkside, hella far cry from home if you insist
I been on edge, you dont wanna push, living hi-rez, you don't wanna look
All in my head, writing my book, old me's dead from the pills I took
Get on my nerves, you on my last, I don't forget, don't forgive my past
Bottle my hurt, put on my mask, I been up nights, but the pain can't last
Its like they caught up in the system, y'all can barley even see,
Smoke and mirrors keep us blind by what they play us on T.V
Money, greed, got no power if you ain't got no degree
We ain't free, I ain't going out like a coward you gon see
You don't wanna see me and my goons on the darkside
Leave my opposition underground, feeling hog-tied
Bitch its been a minute we been up, been a long ride
Best not catch you lackin' doing jobs for the wrong side
You don't wanna see me and my goons on the darkside
Leave my opposition underground, feeling hog-tied




Bitch its been a minute we been up, been a long ride
Best not catch you lackin' doing jobs for the wrong side

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of S.C.A.M.'s song "The Darkside" depict a dark and intense atmosphere, where the artist warns his enemies about the consequences they will face when they encounter his crew. The opening lines suggest that violence is imminent, as the singer warns his foes that they are about to witness his darker side when his "goons" arrive to kill them. The use of language like "up that 40 let it bang bang" and "we gonna spill you" amplifies the threatening and violent nature of the situation.


The lyrics then transition into a representation of the artist's nonchalant attitude towards relationships and superficiality. He dismisses the interest of a woman, proclaiming that he doesn't care about her, and criticizes someone for only smoking low-quality marijuana. He goes on to boast about his success, stating that he's blessed, next in line for greatness, and unaffected by the stresses of life.


The chorus serves as a warning to anyone who might challenge the singer and his "goons" on the dark side. He implies that those who oppose him will be left underground and "hog-tied," emphasizing the consequences of crossing him. The second verse delves deeper into the artist's mindset, portraying him as someone on the edge, with violent tendencies and a troubled past. He expresses a sense of detachment and a willingness to inflict harm on those who push him too far. The verse also addresses societal issues, criticizing the manipulation of media and the control of money and power.


Overall, "The Darkside" portrays a sense of aggression, defiance, and a desire for power in the face of adversity, while also touching on themes of love, success, and societal injustices.

Yeah I’m not too sure about this

Wouldn’t surprise me if the Phone thieves were contacted beforehand. The whole story seemed to go too well, would he really of jumped in that house like that, if it wasn’t arranged? I have no doubt that happens though so I guess it doesn’t matter

The strip club didn’t really seem like a scam, it’s what you expect to happen in there and he could’ve said no to her. They had every right to react the way they did to him filming

The massage parlours didn’t really seem like a scam either, just more of a reality check as to what actually goes on in there. They never forced him to pay the extra and again had every right to be angry at him filming them

And if anyone actually falls for the fake friend scam, they probably shouldn’t be travelling or should at least treat it as a valuable lesson

I once worked in a store in Bedford, and from the top floor watched a very similar operation, if not the same perfume operation taking place at the very front of a previously vacant retail unit opposite. Got to see the whole rinse-and-repeat operation for a few weeks before they moved on. Each sales pitch lasted about 20 minutes, with a similar break in-between.

The man i saw had a team of 3 or 4 people, who would form the initial interested audience, each standing distances apart. The man with the head mic would do the sales pitch and initially throw out a couple free boxes of perfume to this audience. This helps attracts the crowd. Small crowds of 15-20 might then form and listen to the sales pitch.

The guy doing the talking would then encourage the crowd to move nearer to the retail unit, probably after 10 minutes, once he thinks the crowd won't get bigger -aided by his 3-4 individuals in the crowd who would proceed to step forward.

When the offer is finalised people were invited to make the purchase. His team members would buy the product to help give the offer some kind of legitimacy. His team in the crowd would then disperse would go off wait somewhere. Some waited around the other side of a bush nearby. After a short period of time, once all sales were made and the customers had gone, the team would slowly return with their bags and hand them back in behind the counter.

After a brief period, his team would take up their fake audience positions and the process repeats. It was like watching moths to a light bulb.

Scams have tradition in many cities around the world. Charles Dickens of course brought us Fagin, the artful Dodger and Oliver Twist. Back in the 18th/19th centuries - the heyday of pickpockets, the kids were called “natty boys” even though girls were also pickpockets. Anyways,Conor highlights the here and now of London scammers. Enjoy! And don’t let this put you off traveling! Traveling is wonderful. You just have to have some street smarts.
