Big Poppa By Notorious B.I.G
Big Poppa (Clean) - Biggie Smalls
[Chorus]
(I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa)
Throw yah hands in the aya if you'se a true playa
(I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa)
To the homies gettin' money playin n****s like dummies
(I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa)
If you got a gun in your waist please don't shoot up the place.
Cuz I see some ladies tonight that should be having my ba-bay....ba-bay
This could have a negative influence, mainly on young people. The reason this chorus is a negative influence is because this could influence young people to sexually disrespect women, or have sex. The part where he says"Cuz I see some ladies tonight that should be having my baby...baby." after he says "Please don't shoot up the place" could influence underaged sex, sexual harassment, etc. It could also lead to pregnancy at a young age. Also, when he says "I see some girls tonight that should be having my baby", it's like he is disrespecting women because a woman wouldn't like to find out that you are having sex with other women if you are already having sex with them, which is how this can also lead to the disrespect of women.
21 Questions By 50 Cent
21 Questions - 50 Cent
[Chorus]
2x Girrrrrrrrl.
You seem to love me now.
Would you love me if I was down.
And out.
But you still have love for me.
Unlike Big Poppa, this chorus is not disrespecting women. In this chorus, 50 cent loves a woman, but he wants to know if the girl that he loves really loves him back for who he is, and not just because he is a rapper with a lot of money. Then he is saying that he believes that the girl will still have love for him if he was "down and out", meaning if he wasn't a famous rapper. Since he loves this women, he is not showing disrespect, or fake love towards her. This can teach young people that true love isn't just about sex and playing other girls, but it is deeper than that. We all know that 50 Cent is not the most positive rapper out there, but this song actually means something. I think that he had a girlfriend that meant a lot to him, when he made this song, but maybe she broke up with him, and he wanted to know if she really loved him back. However, he wanted to keep her name anonymous, which is the reason he kept saying "girl" instead of her name.
