Songfacts®:

  • Here, Kodak brags about his extravagant lifestyle and takes on his haters.

    I'm swaggin', I got flavor, I got sauce, call me Ragu
    I love my baby girl pussy bald, call her Caillou
    I clap a nigga like patty cake


    "Clap" is slang for shooting someone. Here, Black compares the rate at which he guns down his competition with the way children rapidly clap their hands when playing the traditional game Patty Cake.
  • The song was produced by Ness when he was still a student at Marist College. He told Genius: "When I made this I was thinking of A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Chance The Rapper, I could see Lil Wayne on it. It's just one of them beats that a lot of people can just freestyle on and flow."
