Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

'Bout to make the night shine
Snoop Kellz
Platinum through the doors

V12 rolling nigga goin' platinum
V12 rolling nigga goin' platinum
V12 rolling nigga goin' platinum
V12 rolling nigga goin' platinum

Swag like a lighter
And I keep my swag lit
Man I'm on fire
That can't tell a nigga shit
V12 rolling
Got some honeys up in it
Say your pussy golden
But I only fuck with platinum chicks

Only talk platinum shit
Only swallow platinum spit
Speak my own slang-uage
Still I am the real-iest
Surrounded by Ciroc but your boy sipping Hennesey
Loves is a hospital and I was born in V.I.P.
Sick and there's no cure
Bad case of V.I.P.
Still in the game killing you can call us M.V.P.
Whole fucking club jump in your cars and follow me

Game through the door slow with a foe foe
Limping, crimping and pimping mixing 'em all
Fixing them all drifting listen dog
My rap is that my Cadillac is dripping wet
You can bet turn it up roll it up burn it up
Give it back to me let me show you
How to move that groove that weed that do that

All in fallin' ballin' yellin' doggy do that chew that
Record sales hoe sales detail retail you fail
We sell ding dong get your momma ring your bell
Back in the club with my nephew Kell
Twenty-five girls in the Dogg cartel
And they do what the Dogg say gifted or walkway
Pimping on them all day can't you tell

Drinks up blunts lit platinum boss shit

Rich nigga with a platinum card in a
Platinum car with mink on the seat
Hoes on the feet, hoes on the street
'Cause they all wanna make that trip to the promise land

Little mama can give it to me like I'm the man

Overall Meaning

The song "Platinum" by Snoop Dogg, R. Kelly and Busta Rhymes is an ode to the luxurious lifestyle that they lead, as they celebrate their success in the music industry. The lyrics are an expression of their pride in achieving "platinum" status in their careers, as they indulge in glamorous cars, clothes, women, and parties. The repeated use of "V12 rolling nigga goin' platinum" is a metaphor for their unstoppable rise and success in the rap game. They talk about their swag and how it sets them apart from others, as they only associate with people who are as successful and wealthy as they are, referring to them as "platinum chicks".


The rappers are confident in their abilities and their status, referring to themselves as "real-iest" and "MVPs". They are unapologetic about the lifestyle they lead and the choices they make, proclaiming that they only smoke "platinum" weed and drink "platinum" shots. They also paint a picture of themselves as respected figures in the music world, surrounded by "Ciroc", but sipping "Hennessey" because they are in a league of their own. The lyrics may come across as boastful, but they are also celebratory and acknowledge the work that they have put into achieving their goals.

Snoop should've made a video for this and released it as a single. I'm tired of people hatin' on Snoop. They know deep down inside he's a beast and one of the best (if not the best) rappers of all time. Show Snoop some love and buy this album!

@cdkj8573

Yeah i dont know...He hasnt truly had a hit since "drop it like its hot" and if you've ever seen him live you would change your mind. Doggystyle was literally one of the first albums i ever had and i love snoop, but he sucks live. Like real bad.

@ronjones3184

You tripping!!!!!!! He rap like he read a Dr Seuss book

@A1RPR1C3

I love how snoop comes in spitting quick right when the bass drops.

@Portboy

Holy shit - Snoop's first verse is INSANE. With that bass too, my god - sublime.

@blkmad77

Snoop is puttin another classic album together. This album is goin platinum!

@jfoulstone

i think the fact snoop went harder at it, just made it better than lap dance. but i must give Lex Leuger credit, he drops some killer beats!

@3PaC29

Snoop Dogg We want to listen to that type of songs and continue dropin hot songs . I hope its gonna be the best album ever for u snoop and for the fans :D Wish u all Da best

@yehimthatguy

i love how r. kelly can spit the game but yet also go smooth and get some r&b in it to

@ianlangille558

R.Kelly should've done more trap, he would've tore the genre a new one. Snoop too. Also, easily one of Lugers best beats!
