LLC - NICKI MINAJ (2nd verse)
“You made me do it hoe, I told you get low”
Nicki has warned her competition to refrain from messing with her because it won’t end well for them. They didn’t get the memo so now they don’t have anyone to blame for Nicki’s retaliation but themselves. Also ties into the hook.

“I’m popping 10’s but they gotta be yellow”
Nicki is talking about Percocet pills— distributed in a variety of colors that indicate the dosage. 10mg pills come in white at 325 and yellow at 650. Yellow 10mg pills are the strongest. See diagram:

“I’m New York Nic, I’m balling with Carmelo (ok Melo)”
Carmelo Anthony played for the New York Knicks from 2011 up until the 2017 season. While Anthony was a New York Knick Nicki is referring to herself as “New York Nic”.

Nicki was born in Trinidad, but was raised in Southside Jamaica Queens, New York. Nicki received the key to the city in 2017.
“I’m wavy, word to Shawty L-O, hello”
Shawty Lo was the founder of Southern hiphop group D4L & began his career in 2007 with the hit single “Dey Know”. As with many southern artists, his excessive use of lean & other drugs is evident in his music and life. Hence the term “wavy”.

Side note: In 2016, Walker was killed in a single-car accident in Fulton County when his Audi A7 went over a guardrail. Toxicology reports revealed that drugs were likely the cause of the accident.
“How your jacket say Porsche and you never rode a Porsche?”
Although it has been suggested that this could be pointing towards Cardi B’s verse on the song “Motorsport”, which also features Minaj, Nicki is most likely calling out people who can’t afford a Porsche.

Nicki previously made a similar reference in her song “Barbie Tingz”, which many believed was also a reference to Cardi’s line:
“I’m just tryna find out when the new Porsche come in”
“I’m just tryna find out when the new Porsche come in”
Finally, a similar message appears on Nicki’s rap verse for BTS’s “IDOL (Remix)”
“I swear, watch the ice glare
They be like I’m Gucci but don’t shop there”
“I swear, watch the ice glare
They be like I’m Gucci but don’t shop there”
“How you supposed to make the quota when you never went North?”
Nicki acknowledges her drug trafficking past and asks how the competition will meet their drug quota when they’ve never been up North to move the work. A quota is a numerical goal that is assigned to someone.

This is also a play on the sound of the state North Dakota
“How the fuck you got Ferrari’s when you never went sport? All that hoopin and hollerin still ain’t scoring on the court. Rrrrr”
Minaj makes a play on a phrase used in southern dialect; “hootin’ and hollerin”, which means to shout or make unnecessary ruckus.

Instead of ‘hootin’, she adds ‘hoopin’ to stay in-line with her sporty scheme; referencing a basketball hoop.
Basketball fans often root for their teams, quite passionately, in the stands through applause, chants and whatever other sounds overcome them during a game.

Here, Nicki questions why underlings are disturbing the peace in the rap game if they aren’t ever successful within it. Also, Ferrari is a luxury sports car brand which Minaj alludes the opps have never driven.
This can be taken as a shot on Remy Ma who hasn’t charted on the BBH100 in several years. Nicki said a similar line on Coco Chanel
“Bitch ain’t see billboard in 2017, had to drop Queen on her like a guillotine”
“Bitch ain’t see billboard in 2017, had to drop Queen on her like a guillotine”
End of thread. (3rd verse coming tomorrow!!!)
