Wizkid’s verse, delivered in his signature smooth cadence, focuses on the rewards of success. The Nigerian superstar and multiple award-winner uses repetition to emphasize the normalcy of his wealth, appeal, and lifestyle. The term “bomboclatt,” a Jamaican Patois expletive adopted into Nigerian street slang, is used as an intensifier for the frustration aimed at haters. Shallipopi’s final verse continues the theme of lavish spending and influence, name-dropping Belgian footballer Romelu Lukaku for a humorous comparison of his “balling” prowess. The lyrics overall avoid complex metaphors, opting instead for a playful, straightforward, and rhythmically driven flex. This approach makes the song accessible for singalongs while solidifying the artists’ personas as top figures in their game. Fans can use these lyrics to grasp the specific Nigerian pidgin phrases and the track’s unapologetic celebration of success.
