Guess who's biggidy biggidy bizzack!?! After a long summer packed full of life-changing
car crashes coupled with goal re-orientations, I’m back to #OneHunnid! So let us get in it!
Never before have we
realized how amazingly deep and ironic the Dro youth, or rapper Young Dro, is
and can be. After listening to his new hit jam “We In Da City,” well
1 - I knew it was an immediate success, and
2 - I knew Young Dro is an under-rated rapper inspired by the many hidden truths of our world. Furthermore, it was a deep insight into the ways we, humans, are hurting the ecosystem. Walk with me as I explain the meaning behind the lyrics to the phenomenal song "We In Da City":

Car ain't got no roof
Car ain't got no roof
Car ain't got no roof
This is a testament to
Dro’s new found understanding of the sky. Not much of a star-seeker myself, I can only appreciate the stellar constellations from a distance (haha get it? #DoubleEntendreOnThatAss...man i'm hilarious). But his emphasis on the car
having no roof is directly related to his ability to look up and observe. The metaphor advanced by Dro, simply stated, is that "no roof" means "developing a connection to the sun, stars, moon, and beyond!" Wow.
Truly inspiring words, there!
We be in da city
In da city? In da city..
In da city? In da city..
Notice how he asks “in
da city” and then responds with “in da city.” Not your typical
call-and-response, literary technique. The Youth of Dro is advancing this technique with irony. My dear friends, he is not in the proverbial city, but
rather he resides in Mother Nature, among the trees and planets and creatures of the world. So in fact, he asks are you in the homo sapien created city? Because he is in the original, aka the alpha, aka the Genesis city.
All my bitches with it...
Aye aye aye aye
Aye aye aye aye
So this is where it
gets interesting. Our dear tree-hugger is referring to “bitch” in a completely
endearing way. And this female he speaks of is no one but Mother Earth. Oh
gosh? Oh yeah! Remarking on how Mother Earth supports us is an act repeated by only the most respectful of humans. Deep, Dro. That was so deep, bruh (insert Kanye-at-the-2015-VMAs-Emphasis).
Uh-oh where your ho at?
Uh-oh where your ho at?
Uh-oh where your ho at?
Now, Young Dro-ve-dere
is asking us where our ho is at. First, he is speaking on the systematic rape
of the earth and calling her a “ho” (which I believe is bold with controversy AND offends the innermost ventricles and atriums of our hearts). Further, he is asking where OUR ho is. See,
this is his response to the way WE treat mother earth. Now, will she be your
bitch or your ho?...You decide!
We be in da city
All my bitches with it
All my bitches with it
And of course this is
a repeat of his previous sentiments.
I mean he is most definitely profound and artistic and inspiring. Furthermore, his message is one that should be repeated on the radio stations all day long. Could this be more impactful that Michael Jackson's Earth Song? Hmmm. I can't answer that now. Only time will tell.
IN short, the earth is beautiful and we
need to protect her. AKA I love my Bitch.
