Rap Lyrics Translated

Notorious B.I.G's lyrics, when translated from Ebonics to standard English as in a recent American high school assignment, make for great reading. As the big man himself apparently said, if you are unconvinced, ask Puff Daddy.

Lyrics:
So, what’s it gonna be? Him or me?
We can cruise the world with pearls
Gator boots for girls
The envy of all women, crushed linen
Cartier wrist-wear with diamonds in ‘em
The finest women I love with a passion
Ya man’s a wimp, I give that ass a good thrashin’

TRANSLATION:
The ultimate decision rests with you. Whom do you choose as your sexual partner. I can take you on cruises around the world. I will dress you in the finest jewelry and footwear. You will be envied by women worldwide in your fine clothes and jewelry. There is a special place in my heart for beautiful women. I will defeat your man in an altercation because he is effeminate.

    • Just reading his (real)lyrics sounds cool. Big's flow WAS like jazz. Its got little beats and twists that sound like Miles on the trumpet.

      R.I.P. Hip Hop.

    • Lyrics:

      And my jam knock in the Mitsubishi

      Girls pee pee when they see me, Nava-hoes creep me in they tee pee

      As I lay down laws like I lay carpet

      Stop it - if you think your gonna make a profit

      TRANSLATION:

      I enjoy playing my music loudly on my car stereo. Apparently, women enjoy this also because they become sexually aroused when they see me driving. Oddly enough, when I visit the Native American reservations, some of the more sexually promiscuous Indian women attempt to seduce me in their homes. Their intent is to divest me of my earnings. Such actions are unacceptable.
