Fais passer la tise, paré pour les gos
Trop d'swag, Many, on est fly
Fais passer la tise
Paré pour les gos
Elle a le sang chaud
Et je l'ai dans la peau
Plus que jamais déter
T'arrives dans le club
Tous les yeux braqués sur ma go
J'suis comme tous les hommes
Mais le seul à savoir se qu'elle vaut
Pretty mama, yeah
Tu nous mets tous en danger
Ouh danse, pretty mama, yeah
Sur ce son j'veux t'voir bouger
Pretty mama, pretty mama, pretty mama, eh
Pretty mama, pretty mama, pretty mama, eh
Pretty mama, yeah
Mets du flow dans nos soirées
Trop d'swag, Many on est fly
Fais passer la tise, paré pour les gos
Trop d'swag, Many, on est fly
Vas-y, fais passer la tise
Paré pour les gos
C'est un missile
Mais pas une fille facile
Cette go a trop d'flow
Elle est à ma table, gros
T'arrives dans le club
Tous les yeux braqués sur ma go
J'suis comme tous les hommes
Mais le seul à savoir se qu'elle vaut
Pretty mama, yeah
Tu nous mets tous en danger
Ouh danse, pretty mama, yeah
Sur ce son j'veux t'voir bouger
Pretty mama, pretty mama, pretty mama, eh
Pretty mama, pretty mama, pretty mama, eh
Pretty mama, yeah
Mets du flow dans nos soirées
J'ai constaté (?) meuf
Moi, j'suis ailleurs
J'suis dans le club au top, ouais, j'suis ailleurs
Vas-y danse vas-y danse vas-y danse pour nous
Vas-y bouge vas-y bouge vas-y bouge pour nous
J'ai tous mes potos si tu veux nous follow
Nous follow
Pretty mama, yeah
Tu nous mets tous en danger
Ouh danse, pretty mama, yeah
Sur ce son j'veux t'voir bouger
Pretty mama, pretty mama, pretty mama, eh
Pretty mama, pretty mama, pretty mama, eh
Pretty mama, yeah
Mets du flow dans nos soirées
Trop d'swag, Many on est fly
Fais passer la tise, paré pour les gos
Trop d'swag, Many, on est fly
Vas-y, fais passer la tise
Paré pour les gos
The lyrics of "Pretty Mama" by x x x exude confidence and swagger as the singer talks about a female who has caught his eye in a club. The song starts with the chorus that repeats, "Trop d'swag, many on est fly / Fais passer la tise, paré pour les gos," which roughly translates to "Too much swag, we are all fly / Pass the alcohol, ready for the girls." The lyrics are typical of a party song, where the focus is on having fun, letting go of inhibitions, and indulging in the company of attractive women.
The verse talks specifically about the singer's fascination with the female in question. He describes her as having a hot-blooded personality and being genuine in her demeanor. He hails her determination and drive, which sets her apart from the other women in the club. The verse again emphasizes his status as the only one in the crowd who realizes her worth and also captures her attention.
The bridge of the song is where the singer encourages the woman to let loose and dance to the song. He and his friends are enjoying the party and would love to see her move and groove to the beats. The song ends again on the chorus, where the "pretty mama" is hailed for her effect on the party atmosphere, and the focus remains on the sense of self-assuredness that comes from the singer's comfort in his own skin.
Interestingly, the chorus of the song uses the French term "gos," which has become a slang term in Francophone Africa for "girl" or "woman." It is used in the sense of "gosses," meaning "children" in French but has evolved to mean something entirely different in the context of African slang. The song's title "Pretty Mama" is used as a term of endearment across many cultures, but it originally comes from African-American culture, where it is used to describe a beautiful mother figure.
The song features heavy use of auto-tune on the vocals, which has become a signature of many contemporary African pop songs. The song is relatively short, clocking in at just over two and a half minutes long. The song is entirely in French, which is not a surprise given x x x's background as a Francophone artist. Despite the happy-go-lucky lyrics, the song has a trap-like instrumental that gives it a harder edge.
The song's music video features many amateur dancers grooving to the beats and lip-synching to the lyrics. The video features the typical motifs of club scenes with flashing lights and a generous use of fog machines. The song has over two million views on YouTube and has been well-received by fans of African pop music.
