Interpretion of Far East Movement's song "Like a G6"
















I

"Poppin bottles in the ice, like a blizzard
When we drink we do it right gettin slizzard
Sippin sizzurp in my ride, like Three 6
Now I'm feelin so fly like a G6
Like a G6, Like a G6
Now I'm feelin so fly like a G6"

(Line 1) Popping bottles in the ice- shows an image of oppening bottles in an ice bucket

Like a blizzard- could mean that their drinks are as cold as a blizzard or that their drinks are so many that is figuratively raining with cold beverages....Or it could mean both...that they have a lot of very cold drinks...

(Line 2) They don't just drink casually, they drink to get intoxicated(Slizzard)

(Line 3) They're playing the song"Sippin' on syrup" from the band " Three six mafia"

(Line 4) [G6- is the Gulfstream Jet G650, the coolest and fastest civilian jet available]

They stating that they're as fly(cool) as a Jet.


II

"Gimme that Mo-Moet
Gimme that Cry-Crystal
Ladies love my style, at my table gettin wild
Get them bottles poppin, we get that drip and that drop
Now give me 2 more bottles cuz you know it don't stop"

(Line 1,2) [Crystal Meth- a type of methanpetamine drug.]

They want some drugs.

(Line 3) Shows an image of drunk girls dancing in his table.

(Line 4) [bottle poppin' is a ghetto explicit term for sexual intercourse,

We get that drip and that drop- they're licking each other off]

(Line 5)[ 2 bottles- his drink and his friend's]

III

"Sippin on, sippin on sizz, Ima ma-make it fizz
Girl i keep it gangsta, poppin bottles at the crib
This is how we live, every single night
Take that bottle to the head, and let me see you fly"

(Line 1) [Sizz- black tar heroin

fizz- to get high]

They'll be taking drugs and get high.

(Line 2) He's just being himself, and he's taking her to his home.

(Line 3) It's his lifestyle.

(Line 4) Drink all the contents in the bottle so he/she can get high as well.


IV

"Hell Yeaa
Drink it up, drink-drink it up,
When sober girls around me, they be actin like they drunk
They be actin like they drunk, actin-actin like they drunk
When sober girls around me actin-actin like they drunk"

Verse III shows how high he thinks of himself that girls wouldn't drink but would act all wild to impress him. But if he knows they're just pretending, why would he let them do those things? talk about ego huh!

V

"Its that 808 bump, make you put yo hands up
Make you put yo hands up, put yo, put yo hands up
(You can't Touch this)
Its that 808 bump, make you put yo hands up
Make you put yo hands up, put yo, put yo hands up
(You can't Touch this)
Hell Yeaaa, Make you put yo hands up, put yo put yo hands up
Hell Yeaaa, Make you put yo hands up, put yo put yo hands up"

(Line 1) [808- Area code in Hawaii

bump-jump/go to

make you put yo hands up- they'll be flying]

They'll be flying to Hawaii. But why Hawaii? Because they blend right when their in Hawaii. Hawaii is a like a haven for Asians.


Summary

The song is about trying to look cool, act fly, and get all gangster even if they're Asians. [as an Archetype- we can say that they're Asians by their knowledge in planes, because most Aeronautic enthusiasts are Asians(too much discrimination on my part,sorry!)] They're dreaming of living a life of a wealthy hip hop artist(explains the drugs, the girls, being gangster, and wanting to fly to Hawaii.
