Ye drops a firestorm of N-bombs and other colorful language to illustrate the portrait of a little boy feeling protective over his mom (“I’m my mama’s boyfriend. I’m her little husband. I was the man of the house when it wasn’t. Tryna get to know me, homie, just kill the charm. You ain’t interested in me. You just tryna f*ck my mom.”), then he grows up and faces the same issues with the kids of the single moms he dates.
The track has a melodic, old school feel that would fit in well with any of Ye’s three pre-808s and Heartbreak albums, but it obviously doesn’t fit with the rest of the sound on My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, the album it was initially recorded for. It’s also a lot less angry-sounding than Ye made it sound when he performed part of it, sans breezy musical backdrop, while on a social media promo tour for MBDTF.
