Overall Meaning

"Strong Performer" is a song by the Jamaican dancehall musician Spragga Benz, released in 1995. The lyrics are about women wanting a man who can satisfy them sexually, and in particular they want a man who is a "strong performer." The chorus repeats this desire, emphasizing the importance of not being the wrong performer, but rather being the long, strong performer that the women desire. Spragga Benz elaborates on what it means to be a strong performer, describing the need to turn women inside out, to give them a ride that feels like a bus has collided with them, and to make them moan and groan with pleasure.


The lyrics also critique men who rely on money rather than sexual prowess to attract women, arguing that women will not be swayed by bribes when they truly desire a man who can satisfy them sexually. Spragga Benz emphasizes the importance of being the kind of man who can make even a Christian woman backslide with desire, in order to be the type of man that women truly crave. The repetition of the chorus throughout the song emphasizes the centrality of sexual prowess to the desires of the women described in the song.
