Tyga & Nicki Minaj Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They all got one thing to call me
You see, they all call me by one thing
(Tyga Tyga)
At my shows and we roll and scream
People see him and say (Tyga Tyga)
So nice, gotta repeat me twice
Don't matter what them other bitches say
I'm on my way yeah, I'm on my, on my way
Paragon Star, it's Tyga Tyga y'all
Both knuckles up, demos in the duffel, uh
Bad color Sepia
Who said I ain't good for nothin'?
Respect my hustleness
Madams get the mumbling
Cause I'm covered with color skin
Ask her what my mama thinks
Along to my beats
These things compliments it's bad to see
Once laughed at me, cause I had a dream
Now they wanna relax, sit back with me
I recline, decline whenever they speak
No room to breathe look in my eyes
Seen lies the truth defeat
Gods who sized life knee-high, see y'all
One day after I die niggas, long ways
Got a strong case to
Demonstrate 'fore I elevate
As the swagger serenades
I see evil hate turn for great
Admission admire the non-fate
Put the large cake on my plate
With a little bass, they scream and say
How many marksmen you know
In the local projects?
How many niggas hold you down
When the shit is started? Been counted
That's why I ain't heavy mobbin'
Got a low-key crib, cause bitches retarded
Repeat in they head, they with you
On some all day shit, too much talkin'
They get me nauseous
Small apartment, do all your dirty laundry
Cause word spread to everybody
And they aunties
No pretzels, but shit is salty
Can't even trust the modest
You might spot 'em
Gold Herringbone pop shit, stop it
My details illegal mosh-pit
Honest, this kid is
On my way to the penthouse
Tend a little me ha
Her friend like meet her
You don't know Tyga?
She don't really care 'bout neither
Either, I'm too far where her
Mind can't reach up
Or she don't like music making money niggas
I do know that I ain't got time I maneuvers
Like that, voodoo, like that, you knew
Me don't, I'm already high rap guru
Fume, flew right past you with something
To mac in and marry Catholics
Accurate to it's adjective
Average chicks think I ain't baggin' 'em
I still go in
I just love it when they call him

@@psyhnss So basically she is referencing the Cardi Beef and how people went after her:
All that Ra ra never was the icon Issue Harper's bazaar I am covering the Icon issue :- this references her and Cardi's fight at Harpers bazaar icon party. Plus the fact that she was on the cover of Harpers bazaar Icon issue
PS: Cardi had also given an interview saying that there is no issue with her and Nicki and it was just Ra ra by the media (can't remember the exact statement ....).
So she is playing off of Cardi's statement and saying all that drama at Harpers bazar was never the Icon (I see it as both her and Cardi are Icons) issue but rather SHE has an icon Issue cover coming out.
I got issues ya bitch I got issues W, Vogue, Cosmo yeah bitch I GOT ISSUES!!!! - during that time people kept saying she had issues (problems) so she replies Yes I have issues (Meaning Magazine cover issues) and names magazine covers she has been featured on.
@Rahul-ls7vz
WAIT...theres actually so much wordplay and so much meaning with the ISSUES bars.....this low-key is one of the hardest bar and flow in rap history.
- "All that rah-rah never was the icon issue" - Cardi said rah rah this rah rah that when talking about Nicki in an interview...rah rah also refers to Rah Ali who is theegirl who actually punched Cardi...and lastly Nicki is saying literally that all that rah rah or hoopla or commotion was never her (the ICON's) problem.
- "Harper's Bazaar im covering the Icon issue". - She was literally cover page in Harper's Bazaar magazine in the ICON issue...She was also at Harper's Bazaar Icon Party where the Cardi Nicki fight happened and she was the ICON ISSUE because she was literally involved in an ISSUE (or situation) at Harper's Bazaar's party and she is the ICON
- I got issues?, yea b** I got issues, W, Vogue, Cosmo, I GOT ISSUES!" - She is saying that people, especially Cardi on her IG Live videos after the party, was saying she has issues. She is sarcastically saying yea I got issues and points towards all her magazine ISSUES she was featured in such as W, Vogue and Cosmo. Lastly, she is literally saying " I got issues?" AS IN "EYE 👁 got issues" which refers to how Cardi looked when coming out of the party with a large bump above her EYE because she got punched by Rah Ali in the eye/head area. SO if we use this in the lyrics it would mean "EYE 👁 got issues? "(Cardi your eye got an issue?) , "yea B**CH, I 👁got issues "(yea Cardi your eye got a problem), Nicki is literally asking and answering her questions into this killer flow. The last part of this was "W, Vogue, Cosmo, I got issues!" She adds this at the end because she knows that if she just leaves the first two lines people will know shes talking about Cardi B' eye so she sarcastically is like no no no im talking about magazine issues not Cardi B! "W, Vogue, Cosmo, I got Issues!!" ( you can tell by the way she says issues she is basically trying to say this "youuu guyssss I'm talking about my MAGAZINE ISSUES")...................... HERRRRR MMINNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDDDDD.
This verse literally DESTROYED Cardi B and literally nobody realized it...Nicki is god tier.
