Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Nicole feat. Mannie Fresh's song "On & On" appear to be largely a celebration of wealth, status, and sexual conquest. The constant references to money abound, with Birdman (also known as the "Birdman Junior") asserting his power and "flying high" above others who he deems to be beneath him. Mannie Fresh, known to be a legendary producer and rapper from New Orleans, introduces the song by noting that this is "the Carter," which seems to serve as a reference to the neighborhood in New Orleans where Lil Wayne (also known as "young Carter") was raised. The persistent refrain of "Wayne in ya brain, young Carter" underscores the sense of pride and success that this song invokes.

Nicole's verses emphasize her own status as a wealthy and desirable woman, using metaphors like "my charm starburst, my watch skittles" to highlight the luxurious accessories that she possesses. She also seems to have a desire for sexual conquest, as she insists that women are constantly throwing themselves at her and that she is able to remove any obstacle in her path. Together, Birdman and Nicole celebrate their ability to buy whatever they want, take whoever they want, and operate with impunity.

There is undoubtedly a sense of bravado and aggression in these lyrics, as the rappers assert their dominance and suggest that others are "half-ass rappers" or beneath them in some way. However, it is also worth noting the persistent references to "hustle" and "grind," which suggest that these rappers have worked hard to achieve their success and are proud of what they have accomplished. Ultimately, "On & On" is a song about power and excess, presenting a vision of success that is predicated on acquiring material wealth and demonstrating one's dominance over others.
