Tobe Nwigwe Been Broke

For his latest single, “BEEN BROKE,” Houston’s own Tobe Nwigwe managed to pull his fellow Texan, Chamillionaire, out of retirement, along with 2 Chainz and his own wife, Fat Nwigwe.

The just-under-four-minute-long title boasts standout verses from all three lyricists, starting with T and closing out with Cham, who pays tribute to the late Young Dolph during his time on the microphone.

“Ever heard ’em say that money talks? Yeah / I’m the one doin’ the most talkin’,” he spits. “Rule number one is get money / Number two is get money, R.I.P. to Young Dolphin.”

For his part, 2 Chainz shouts out his home state with “Sound like the old Atlanta, got a pole in the Phantom / Codeine and the orange Fanta / Ain’t goin’ back to bein’ broke no more / Eatin’ shrimp, day shift with a pole dancer.”

Ooh, every bar of praise a gift rap
Ooh, flow water, get a swim cap
Ooh, can’t feel this, big cap

[Verse 2: 2 Chainz]
Sound like the old Atlanta, got a pole in the Phantom
Codeine in an orange Fanta
Ain’t goin’ back to bein’ broke no more
Eatin’ shrimp, day shift with a pole dancer
Ambitious all my life
I serve fiends, manifestate my dreams
And an Asian made these jeans
Euros in my pocket
Shout out my amigo, he the socket, yeah
Flow like epoxy (Poppin’)
I’m talkin’ German engineerin’
African-American, I need some therapy
I just need someone to listen (Someone to listen)
Came with the D like a Piston
She make a wish in the Rolls-Royce ’cause stars in the ceilin’ (Ceilin’)
Who made it hard?
Swap EBT for cash like tradin’ cards, yeah

[Verse 3: Chamillionaire]
H-Town Texan, always be investin’
Comin’ through drippin’ and saucin’
I’ma keep shinin’ like Iceman Nick
Trae, Flip, Slim Thugga and Paul’s grin
Ever heard ’em say that money talks? Yeah
I’m the one doin’ the most talkin’
Rule number one is get money
Number two is get money, R.I.P. to Young Dolphin
Everything black on black, yeah
Amex, melanated dark skin
Y’all runnin’ to the major label like you think they gon’ save you
Who you think that is, Clark Kent?
I am not seven, not three
Not two, not eight, I’m nine above top ten
Could’ve been a one-hit wonder
You should wonder why I ain’t in the situation, y’all in, uh

[Chorus: Tobe Nwigwe & Fat]
I’ve been broke my whole life (Broke, yeah)
Now money right (Yeah)
I’ve been broke my whole life (Broke, yeah)
Now money right
I’ve been broke my whole life (Broke)
Now money right
I’ve been broke my whole life (Broke, why I been broke my whole life?)
Now money right
I’ve been broke my whole life (Yeah, uh)
Right next to po’ my whole life (Yeah)
I ain’t seen dough my whole life (Oh)
Now money right (My whole life)
