The group consists of members Demetrius "Meany" Hardin, Richard Stevens and Rasheed "Sheed" Hightower.[1] on June 19, 2007. The lead single, "Party Like a Rockstar" charted on the Billboard rap charts as well as the Hot 100 (peaking at #2 on the Charts),and has become a statement of sorts within the hip-hop community.[3] Rock versus; pop versus; rap versus accepted societal behavior are key themes of the album, and the band has quickly acquired notoriety in cynical but witty criticism of industrial mainstream music business attitudes, despite being the very model of mainstream fluff music. Despite the success of "Party Like A Rockstar", the album sold less than 200,000 copies as of August 24, 2007.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
New chain around my neck, I'm flexin'
Got dough, you can check, I'm flexin'
Matter of fact, I'm big boy flexin'
Big wheels on rims, I'm flexin'
New chain around my neck, I'm flexin'
Got dough, you can check, I'm flexin'
Big car, big shoes and a big booty ***
One hand on my wheel just to see my jewelry glitz
[Incomprehensible] *** on my fingas and wrist
Never would've thought I'd live like this
Drive Toyota and a Honda and no other in the streets
Like D4L, 'Betcha Can't Do It Like Me'
I'm a [Incomprehensible]
They will tell you how it is, this is Shop Boyz summer
Big wheels on rims, I'm flexin'
New chain around my neck, I'm flexin'
Got dough, you can check, I'm flexin'
Matter of fact, I'm big boy flexin'
Big wheels on rims, I'm flexin'
New chain around my neck, I'm flexin'
Got dough, you can check, I'm flexin'
Matter of fact, I'm big boy flexin'
Big rims, my tires is flat
New Benz outside and black
Killas like, I admire that
New orange cutlass like a fire-hat
I stunt, I deserve a plant
Gimme a track, I murda that
Take your girl then work her back
When it comes to the flix then I don't slack
Cellphones same price as rent
Get stupid, [Incomprehensible] on my [Incomprehensible]
I'm off the chain, you tied to the fence
My angel feel like this turbulence
I'm 'bout to freeze, I need a coat
Your ice is a measly joke
I pray, yeah, I need to boast
I'm big flexin' from coast to coast
Big wheels on rims, I'm flexin'
New chain around my neck, I'm flexin'
Got dough, you can check, I'm flexin'
Matter of fact, I'm big boy flexin'
Big wheels on rims, I'm flexin'
New chain around my neck, I'm flexin'
Got dough, you can check, I'm flexin'
Matter of fact, I'm big boy flexin'
I'm a money go getta, keep money
50 thousand around my neck like Johnny
My car sit way in the sky
Future mission, man, I think it's gonna fly
Spent 'bout $450 on the shoes
My parents say I don't mean to be rude
I think I need protection
Gettin' money, I'm big boy flexin'
Big wheels on rims, I'm flexin'
New chain around my neck, I'm flexin'
Got dough, you can check, I'm flexin'
Matter of fact, I'm big boy flexin'
