    N***** dont take me seriously well here is my lyrics to rich whores I’m about this life just like ya are

    [Intro:]
    Oh my God, did you hear the new Gucci Mane album?
    I love Gucci Man! I love Kreayshawn! Let’s get it bumpin’ bumpin’, yeah!

    [Hook:]
    This is for my h***, h*** in the secondhand clothes
    Who use their dollar bill to put the powder in they nose
    I love my h***, h*** in the secondhand clothes
    Who use their dollar bill to put the powder in they nose
    Rich w****, rich w****, spending at the thrift store
    Line it up, line it up, sniff more, sniff more!
    What up, b****? I heard you go to FIDM
    What up, b****? I see you dancin’ with no rhythm
    What up, b****? I know you like that gangsta rapper
    You’ll probably p*** your pants if you ever seen the trap

    [Verse 1:]
    I f*****’ hated school but I love my Trapper Keeper
    That’s where I kept my work, go ahead and ask my teacher
    I got pretty features, “Did you major in photography? ”
    Well, I did, and f*** that noise, I’m a self-taught prodigy
    Honestly, I’m probably a bonafide problem child
    I was born with hella steeze, you had to go buy your style
    Ginger Spice, Ginger Spice, hustle hard since Fisher Price
    You offer up a couple lines, I just hit that swisher twice
    Sporty Spice, Sporty Spice, hustle hard for forty nights
    Forty days, 40k, forty h***, forty wives
    Forty fashion students who designing all my merchandise
    And she hella shallow, damn, she could be my perfect wife!

    [Hook]

    [Verse 2:]
    Broke house, poor house, crack house, trap house
    Art loft, sky freight, sky-high penthouse
    We in the downtown suite and the view is mayne
    A rapper talked about it so she had the system lame
    Her boyfriend’s in an indie band and got a moustache
    The music’s f*****’ lame, he lookin’ like a muskrat
    Trust that, co-sign it, take it it to the bank
    You can put a p** in makeup but you can’t disguise a s****
    I’m sharper than a shank and my marijuana stank
    My life is like a work of art, your canvas lookin’ blank
    So add a little color, put some paint on your palette
    Because I fill them galleries, them painter h*** is mad at me!
    Line it up, sniff it! Chop it up, sniff it!

    [Hook]

    Everybody my lyrics to Gucci Gucci this song was a classic

    One big room full of bad bit**es

    [Hook:]
    And we stunting like
    Gucci Gucci, Louis Louis, Fendi Fendi, Prada
    Basic bit**es wear that s*** so I don’t even bother

    [Verse 1:]
    Gucci Gucci, Louis Louis, Fendi Fendi, Prada
    The basic bit**es wear that sh**, so I don’t even bother
    I put that on my partner, I put that on my family
    Oakland city representer, address me as your majesty
    Yeah you can kiss the ring, but you can never touch the crown
    I smoke a million Swisher blunts and I ain’t never coming down
    Bi**h you ain’t no Barbie I see you work at Arby’s
    Number 2, super-sized Hurry up I’m starving
    Gnarly, radical, on the block I’m magical
    See me at your college campus baggie full of Adderalls
    Call me if you need a fix, call me if you need a boost
    See them other chicken heads? They don’t never leave the coop
    I’m in the coupe cruising, I got the stolen plates
    Serving all the fiends over there by the Golden Gate
    Bridge, I’m colder than the fridge and the freezer
    I’m snatching all your bit**es at my leisure

    [Hook:]

    I’m lookin like Madonna but I’m flossing like Ivana
    Trump, you know I keep that work in my trunk
    Got my hand on the pump if you wanna press your luck
    I’m yelling “Free V-Nasty” ’til my throat is raspy
    Young, rich and flashy I be where the cash be
    You can’t find that? I think you need a Google Map
    My pearl-handled kitty-cat will leave and press your noodle back
    Now Google that groupies follow me like Twitter
    I’m rolling up my catnip and shi**ing in your litter
    Why you looking bitter? I be looking better
    The type of bi**h that make you wish that you ain’t never met her
    The editor, director plus I’m my own boss
    So posh, nails fierce with the gold gloss
    Which means nobody getting over me
    I got the swag and it’s pumping out my ovaries

    [Hook:]
    And we stunting like

    Ari did great, once again show casing some of the many new chicks
    that is on the front lines in music and entertainment. Ari i hope that you
    or not connected to Jay-z in any way because if you or you will be rosted
    and toasted by his Wifey, sicko fan club. But as long as you or with another
    label you can graciously work on your career as hard and as long as you want
    without getting put through all of the crap some one of Rihanna’s caliber gets put
    through simply because Rihanna persents a clear and “Present Danger” to the
    once Kaaaang of spades. Now Rihanna is the Queen Of Hearts and she is doing
    her thing from coast to coast, and around the globe and the bee hive has gotten
    Corked & Screwed, by Rih and her Massive Navy. It kills the HIVE to see Rihanna’s
    name shining in the spot light. HUH and another thing this is amazing because you could have eaisly picked one of those old and out dated Beyonce songs from
    her MASSIVE BOOK OF TEN MILLION SONGS AND TWENTY #1 HITS,,,,,,,,LOOOL
    But you was smart and you picked a WINNER IN RIHANNA SONG, because if you want your name out there then do a rihanna song and you will get all of the attention and popularity you will ever need to keep doing it big in the business, thanks ARI!!!!!! aND SINCE THE NAVY IS SUPPOSED TO BE retards and talentless too, just like rihanna is then we applaud you ahead of time!!!!!!! Keep up the great work. Like rihanna just keep working and remember that pratice, pratice, practice and let the chips fall where they may!!!!!!!!

  8. Lax April 28, 2012

    @KREAYSHAWN,,,You and the bee hive or just alike a lot to me, by
    the way you stan for your fave, you or a bunch of Bitter, bum bytches,
    who tries to tramp on others to up the ante for their fave. This approach
    make mannnnny people not support your fave, ever, and i mean never!!!

    When the hive treat Rih like shyt with their claws and paws they make things
    bad for their favorite artist, keep up the great work of killing Kreayshawn,
    career with your stupidity!!!!! By trying to bash folks into supporting your
    cause!!!!!

  9. Kreayshawn April 28, 2012

    Wait a minute i Get bashed for promoting my debut album on blog sites WTF. My PR said I had to wake up early this morning for this s***
    Don’t compare me to beehive either I’m from Oakland we are not on the same level. This is me KREAY KREAY

  10. NX127 – B**** OUT OF ORDER April 28, 2012

    @Kreayshawn

    Dude stop it..

    What are you officially trying to do?

    Just release a lead single to the radio and good night, this s*** isn’t good for you..

    @LAX

    take a couple of pills and go to sleep dude, you seem mad as f***, being one of the first idiots to bring up Beyonce.

    I’m a BeyH.I.V. and I’ve been listening to “Roc Me Out” since “Talk That Talk” came out.. and I love it. I can’t wait for WHYB video, and I’m living my life. What the hell?

    Same thing for Beyonce, she’s watching TV now and drinking a cup of tea with Blue and Jay, so …

    I understand, Beyonce slayed WASPs like your ass in a Madonna’s “Gangbang” way.. but if you can’t do it like a dude, I can offer you my damn warm, comfortable and seat in the front with a popcorn and juice!

  11. Lax April 28, 2012

    @NX127,,,Yet another screen name change????now when the navy
    and me, myself and i express ourselves we have got to be mad as f***????
    When you and your psychotic, gutter rat, ass wipe team of internet bullies
    or the worst Fan Club, in the His-to-Rih of blogging, Awesome…..

    Beyonce hasn’t SLAYYYYYYYED jack s***, but that PILLOW, she wore around for
    6 months because she and her team screwed up the dates. She hasn’t slayyyed
    nothing, deery. Its back to the drawing board for her and her team because they have lossed their touch, deery. The harder you bee hive s*** buckets, psychotic, ass wipes tries to rain on Rih’s parade the more Rihanna and all of the other artist or going to SHINE AS BRIGHT AS EVVVVVER ASS WIPE, PSYCHOTIC, SCUM BAGS!!!!!MEOW! MEOW! MEOW! BOO BOO!

  12. Lax April 28, 2012

    @BEE HIVE, Try and figure out what the kaaaang can do to get back to the
    top of the charts!!!!!Bee hive what can the Kaaaang buy with all of her $$$$$
    to try and prove to the millions & millions of people with a working brain around
    the world that shes still in business. Her being named the most beautiful womab,
    is so LAUGHABLE & FUNNY, just saying. And since the bee hive rubbed it in about
    her performing at GLASBU,,,,,,, And performing every where including oprah, even shipping in african dancers and she still could not make it to the top, ha, ha, ha, rihanna has made His-to-Rih with her # 1’s along not to mention that shes the most searched female musician in the His-to-Rih of the Social Net Working Era. Even with the Kaaaang trying to seem Human and opening her tumbler and having her pillow, many people or losing interest in her fake ass.
    And as quiet as it kept Jay wants the Kaaang to try and appear more natural and
    wear flats shoes, now i have heard it all. Jay loves it when i wear flats, he never seen me in flats before, he like me more natural, just the relaxed natural me. Snaps Beyonce wake up and get over yourself, sweets, you or short and you tries to appear tall like kelly and rihanna, ciara them sweets. These chicks wear tennis shoes and flats all of the time, wake the hell up and smell the coffe, sweets!!!!!!
    And Bee Hive keep doing what you do best, and that would be TRYING TO TEAR OTHER ARTIST CAREER STRIVE DOWN AND UP BEYONCE WHO HAS IT ALL AND SHES JUST IN IT FOR THE FUN OF IT AND TRYING TO STEAL OTHERS SHINE!!!!!!

  13. Eyebrow April 28, 2012

    She’s giving you that eyebrow! Bam!

  14. NX127 – B**** OUT OF ORDER April 28, 2012

    @LAX

    For entire 16 years, she’s been such a FLOP + Her husband was a drug dealer + She’s just given birth to a pillow + All the money she’s sitting on is because of her stealing others’ ideas

    She has no talent, and she’s basic as f*** and nobody loves her but a gang of gay ass-rimmers who hate THE GREAT LEGEND Rihanna and her Navy, and want her to flop. She has no ideas behind her work, she can’t sing.

    Plus, she’s an over-rated w****. Actually just caught a DP f*** vid with Mr. Marcus and B Pumper (h*** too)

    But we’re so proud of her, and we love her so much.

  15. NX127 – B**** OUT OF ORDER April 28, 2012

    You make me wish I have installed Microsoft PowerPoint.. but I know that, anyway, 360GB isn’t gonna be enough to tell you what.

  16. whyohwhy2 April 28, 2012

    People are just tired of Rihanna’s fake claim to fame and that is her songs, it’s sad when other known or unknown artist can sing your songs better than you with no help but just pure talent. They are trying to show people that Rihanna is nothing but an image and people like LAX and the cult NAVY need to stop wasting their money and breath defending her. Rihanna will be doing this rendention pretty soon. She copies and you nuts give her credit for it. They make it seem so simple and Rihanna has all this backtracking and technology on her side and she still cant perform so what’s wrong with that picture! Rihanna is the best placed chick with no talent in this game.. SAD!!!

  17. Chrissy April 28, 2012

    I liked Rihanna much better! This chick is ok

  18. -_- April 28, 2012

    That eyebrow tho. O_O

  19. Lax April 28, 2012

    @WHYOHWHY,,,,Do you claw and paw so hard to try to make it seem
    ‘like Bey is all the praise right now when it’s clear that she’s not. Rita
    has stole Bey’s shine and her little midget ass is running with it. You
    can call the Navy all the names your GUTTER RAT ASS WIPE Ass can
    dream up and still Rihanna’s navy is getting bigger and stronger as i claw.
    The navy will never fall back for the bee hie, because we stan for a chick who
    has come from a far away land to show your fave how it is done, and RIHANNA
    did not have to get SLICED AND DICED to do it!

    Forget Rihanna and her accomplishments your fave can’t even hold a candle to Britney, who has diamond in her war chest. And while the bey hive brags about Beyonce AND HOW MUCH MONEY SHE HAS , WHERE YOU OR STUPID AND PSYCHOTIC is when you feel that no one else is supposed to make money. But perhaps it’s okay for some to get paid but not Rih. If for some reason or another rihanna can’t meet her bills and monthly obligations we will all find out at once because since she PAYS JAY, BEYONCE HUBBY TO MANGER HER CAREER,
    Then is she wasn’t making the serious paper shes making jay would stop manging her with a quickness, because he and beyonce loves money better than a hog loves slop.

  20. Lax April 28, 2012

    @WHYOHWHY,,,,Speaking about people being tired of her Image
    and she has nothing bu a Fake Claim to Fame, you or so right
    Deery.

    On about the Navy need to stop waisting their money and breath defending her, Bytch have you lossed your air head brains, You mean to tell me that even with yo pockets empty, as fukkk keeping Beyonce bank account fat and tight as ever, some
    of you act like bey;s money is some how sending cash straight into your accounts each and every time theres a direct draft into her account. What is true is that the Hive has spent a lot of their hard earned paper to make Beyonce as rich as ever and that is good. The only thing is you or going to have to get ready to keep it going. Theres no way i would say to the hive to stop supporting beyonce just because i had a attitude, like yo dumb ass suggested then navy do.
    Keep it in yo mind that Rihanna make it with her backtracking and Technology to get ahead like the others don’t do it, what a stupid ass wipe you or deery.

    About Rihanna being the best placed chick in the game with no talent while i respect your weak ass thoughts just remember that Fakness can not make you have a net worth of millions and Fakness will not help you to keep making millions, Fakness will not make ass wipes such as yourself keep coming after her claws and paws to some how try and Hurt, Hate and try and destroy Rihanna with yo Key Boards, you ass wipe.
    OHHHHH And about people being tired of her, you could never be so RIGHT, DEERY that is the very reason why Rihanna’s Music Video “WFL” has sold its ass off and is still chrrning out over 100,000 copies per week, now don’t that make the Bee Hive D**ks want to not get ready ever again.
    PS HIVE,,,,Rihanna single “WFL” has over 166 million youtube views now i know that make you want to find yourself a very tall cliff and Take A DIVE, OFF IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    @NX127 & BEY HIVE KEEP TRYING TO BREATH LIFE INTO A FAILING CAREER FOR BEYONCE. Don’t you see the likes of rihanna, ciara, tearri, keri
    all of them including GaGa, doing the dam thing and when you try to make fun of rihanna for making only 90 million in a short period of time, i still know that Gaga also out did Beyonce’s ass to, Helllllllo In the Us Rihanna & Gaga from the US or raising hell, Ass Wipes, now tell us why YOU OR SO MAD, ASS WIPES!!!!

  21. NX127 – B**** OUT OF ORDER April 28, 2012

    That’s such a F*** NO.

    GaGa’s annual is a crazy 90$ million now, but she hasn’t did KINGB’s wealth!!
    (check Billboard Top40 Money Makers of 2011, Taylor Bwitch outsold GaGa)

    DEAL

    Even if she did, I’d be very proud of her. Mother Monster. Actually the Hive really support GaGa and Little Monsters, because actually KINGB, Adele and GaGa share the same thing: Orginality. and we Welcome them all in our Hive.

    Dude, did you just stick your face up GaGa’s stank ass just so you can make fun of KINGB’s wealth?? Shameless!!

  22. —- April 28, 2012

    Wait I think this girl forgot to do this: Ok so Rihanna didn’t really commit to shaving the side of her head. BOOOOO!!!!! I also love the “owl set” commentary, you little Illuminati Princess you, with your Baphmet heads on set all the time and your left eye covered.

  23. Lax April 28, 2012

    The day i start doing anything the ass wipes, say to do will be
    the day when i start looking for me the tallest cliff i can find &
    take a Dive, like i ask them to do to take their minds off, of
    Rihanna many great and outstanding accomp[lishments.
    By the way, it was rumored that gaga made 90 million with
    33 tour dates already, and it was stated that that was more
    then Rihanna made on her entire tour, second GaGA is
    #1 on the list of the top money list thaa5 is posted by forbes.

    @Bee Hive the list that you all laughts your asses off about
    how the KAAAAANG made 35 million sitting on her ass and
    Rih made 29 million, Remember?????? Where Gaga is #1
    Taylor #2, Katy #3, Beyonce #4 & Rihanna #5, that forbes list…..

    You stupid ass hole i was not making fun of any one’s wealth, i was just stating what i see. Funny how you ass wipes or always bringing up beyonce and jay’s wealth and want to try and make others forget that there or many other artist working their asses off.
    It is easy for you ass wipes to try and kissses up to Gaga that is only bexause Gaga is at the top of the Forbes list and she and yo Kaaaang did a collab. Rihanna’s navy has no beef with Gaga, as a matter of Fact Rihanna and Gaga
    Respects each others Hustle to a “tee” The only trouble is you Bee Hive, You all need to have your hands hand cuffed behind you and you neet to not be able to hit one single key on a key board they need to make all of you type with your dang stank, Nose, the slime and slanderous that you tries to spread on Rihanna and mannnnny other artists. Don’t you clowns know that other artist read a lot of yo negative b/.s!!!!!

  24. NX127 – B**** OUT OF ORDER April 28, 2012

    OK nobody talking on that ANNUAL list b****, we’re talking about total wealth.

    and don’t try to tell me that children like Rihanna and Katy Perry and Justin Bieber have more money than KINGB now!! She’s been running for Sixteen F*****’ Years slaying your faves in a hard way!!!

    Just face it.
