In Sean Paul's song "Disrespect," the lyrics discuss the consequences of disrespecting K-Licious, Sean Paul's crew. The song starts off with Sean Paul observing other individuals fighting and fussing, causing them to become targets. Those who disrespect K-Licious will feel the consequences of their actions, such as being pushed aside by the crew or potentially injured.
The chorus repeats the message that if someone disrespects the crew, they can expect to be met with aggression, as they will feel the "sea crest," meaning the full force of the crew's power. The rest of the lyrics describe further examples of the harm that could come to those who do not treat K-Licious with respect.
One interesting fact about "Disrespect" is that it was featured on the soundtrack for the popular video game Tony Hawk's Underground 2. Additionally, the song was performed by Sean Paul during a live show at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin. The song contains samples from the track "La Di Da Di" by Slick Rick and Doug E. Fresh, as well as "Dem Bow" by Shabba Ranks. Despite the violent lyrics, the song has been praised for its energetic beat and catchy chorus.
Chords: Unfortunately, the chords for "Disrespect" are not available as the song primarily contains electronic beats rather than traditional instruments.
