Nicki Minaj “Chun-Li” Lyrics Translated Into English
[Chorus]
Ayo, I been on, bitch, you been corn
Bentley tints on, Fendi prints on
I mean I been Storm, X-Men been formed
He keep on dialin’ Nicki like the Prince song
I-I-I been on, bitch, you been corn
Bentley tints on, Fendi prints on
Ayo, I been north, Lara been Croft
Plates say Chun-Li, drop the Benz off
Translation:
To all of you female rappers out there, please understand that I am not brand new to this business. I’ve been in the music industry since 2004. Sadly, you’ve probably been corny for just as long. My success allows for me own luxury Bentley cars with tinted windows and to wear Italian high fashion clothing called Fendi that you can’t afford. When it comes to the music business of hip hop where this industry is dominated by men, you can think of me like Storm from the X-Men where she was one of the few, yet highly respected female superheroes surrounded by a bunch of male superheroes. My success is so amazing that I have men constantly trying to get in contact me the same way the late-great musical genius by the name of Prince was singing about a woman named Nikki in his song “Darling Nikki“. But regardless, I’ve been making music professionally since 2004 while you were just another corny person running around your neighborhood. Once again, look at the my Bentley with tinted windows and my high fashion Fendi attire I’m wearing that you can’t afford. Compared to you other female rappers out there, I have been at the top of this industry. I want to give a shout out to the movie character Lara Croft of the movies Tomb Raider. In order to help make this rhyme stay on beat and a certain tempo, I just decided to randomly inject her name into the lyrics simply because it rhymed, despite the phrase “Lara been Croft” having no direct translation to explain why I decided to mention her name. Anyways, as you all try to figure out exactly what “Lara been Croft” is supposed to mean, feel free to look at the license plates on Mercedes Benz. They say #ChunLi, which just happens to be the name of the female character from the classic video game called Street Fighter, whom I decided to name this song after to express my affinity for Asian culture.
