"Nobody needs to write a bio for me. This… Read Full Bio ↴In the words of SAINt JHN:
"Nobody needs to write a bio for me. This is stupid. My name is SAINt JHN, that's my real name, it's spelled a little different tho. I'm from Brooklyn, I spent half of my childhood growing up in Georgetown, Guyana. I was dirt poor in Brooklyn and some version of rich in Guyana, because apparently 2 nickles can buy you a sports car in a 3rd world country. Who knew?! I'm from a SUPER Christian household where my mom forced us to go to every church imaginable, EVERY, SINGLE, WEEK! I hated it. I still won't go to church to this day. I'm a product of a father that was a hustler, preacher for a mother and a rapper for an older brother. Jay z and Beenie Man were my musical hero's growing up. I don't know how to describe the music I make, don't know what genre it belongs to and I don't exactly care. I make what I want to hear and paint the pictures that I want to see in the world. I got my start writing songs for other people, I got lucky I don't know how that happened but I did. I wrote some records for Usher, Kiesza, Gorgon City and a few other people. I was having success, but then I quit, cause who wants to live their dreams through someone else's eyes. So I put out my first project, Collection One. And here we are now, I hope you like whatever comes next cause I have no fvcking idea!"
SAINt JHN has since released his third studio album "While The World Was Burning".

(Brrt) burn it down, burn it down, speedin' down ready
Heaven don't let me down, comin' down heavy
Brooklyn nigga, ridin' low in the Chevy
Make this '94 feel like a Bentley
Fucked up, turnt up, piped up, gripped up
Fucked up, turnt up, piped up, gripped up
Whole block, whole gang prayin', I deliver
Fucked up, turnt up, piped up, gripped up
Turnt up, tryna kill the pain in my sick cup
Fucked up, turnt up, piped up, gripped up
Whole block, whole gang prayin', I deliver
(Oh-oh)
Uncle Munsen in the corner playin' dominoes
He a genius, trappers never make the honor roll
Oh, but to me you're the one though
Screamin', "Rastafari, 'til I die", sellin' cocaine gumbo
I'm just good at playin' dumb
Young chameleon seen the Rover with the paper tags
Spendin' paper racin', tryna get his childhood back
It's cool
He's back on road
(Brrt) burn it down, burn it down, speedin' down ready
Heaven don't let me down, comin' down heavy
Brooklyn nigga, ridin' low in the Chevy
Make this '94 feel like a Bentley
Fucked up, turnt up, piped up, gripped up
Turnt up, tryna kill the pain with my sick cup
Fucked up, turnt up, piped up, gripped up
Whole block, whole gang prayin', I deliver
Fucked up, turnt up, piped up, gripped up
Turnt up, tryna kill the pain in my sick cup
Fucked up, turnt up, piped up, gripped up
Whole block, whole gang prayin', I deliver
No they would never stop, even if I fall
If I ever die, it's nobody's fault
Just don't let me down, just don't break my heart
In my '94 Bentley, I'm a fucking star
The song "94 Bentley" by SAINt JHN seems to be a cry for help from a man who's feeling the weight of his responsibilities. The lyrics suggest that he is trying to cope with the pain of his past by indulging in drugs and alcohol. He's also feeling pressure from his community to succeed, and he talks about how the whole block is praying for him to deliver. The chorus repeatedly mentions wanting to make a '94 lowrider Chevy feel like a Bentley, which could be a metaphor for wanting to turn something average into something extraordinary.
The verse about Uncle Munsen emphasizes the idea that just because someone might not excel in traditional ways, like getting good grades, it doesn't mean they aren't talented. Munsen is a "genius," despite never making the "honor roll." The lyrics also hint at the idea that drug dealing isn't necessarily glamorous or rewarding, despite what some rappers might suggest. The line "selling cocaine gumbo" sounds like an absurd and unsatisfying product.
Overall, the song seems to be about the pressures of life and the desire to escape them. The chorus repeats the phrase "Heaven don't let me down" several times, which suggests that SAINt JHN is looking for help or guidance from a higher power. The line "Whole block, whole gang prayin', I deliver" implies that his success is tied to the expectations of those around him. Despite his confidence in the final line ("In my '94 Bentley, I'm a fucking star"), the rest of the song reveals that he's struggling to maintain that sense of self-assurance.
