The “kid’s rock” is slang for Eminem’s dick, as you can see Eminem grab his package during this line in the video, but it’s also a clear reference to Kid Rock who penned “Bawitdaba” and appears in the “Berzerk” music video. The flow of these lines match the song’s famous Busy Bee-quoting chorus:

“Bawitdaba da bang a dang diggy diggy diggy
Said the boogy said up jump the boogy”

No-one really knows whether or not, Nas was actually an atheist but his lyrics paint a very diverse picture. Some seem atheist, such as:

Won’t even run about gods, I don’t believe in none of that shit. Your facts are backwards.

Some of his lyrics feature Christian or Islamic themes like this lyric in particular referencing Allah directly:

A lot of rules, some locked in solitude. Curse the day of they birth confused, who’s to be praised? The mighty dollar — or almighty Allah.


While not being directly affiliated with the group, Nas has had an interest in the 5 Percent Nation ever since he was a young adult.

We were beginner’s in the hood as Five Percenters but something must’ve got in us, ‘cause all of us turned to sinners

5 Percenters believe that 85% of the world’s population is ignorant of the truth about the world and god, 10% knows the truth and willfully spreads lies for their own gain, leaving 5% of the Earth to be Enlightened. This organization is often considered a mixed conglomeration of various religions such as the Christian and Islamic references throughout his songs.


Nas also mentions going through a procedure of spiritual rebirth of his spirit from Jesus, this contrasts with the real, physical birth that everyone experiences when they’re born. With that being said, Nas has committed suicide (not literally) to be born again spiritually. With that being said he’s trying to cleanse his old path and start as a new person.

Liaisonic is a made up word which derives from liaison.

Which means:

  • A close relationship, connection, or link.
  • An adulterous relationship; an affair.

The -ic was added so that it would easily rhyme with platonic.

A double entendre

  • A kiss may be sweet or lovely.

  • A kiss may be worth a grand ($1,000)

Kisses won’t pay the bills, and so won’t a $1,000; further highlighting Marilyn’s expensive lifestyle.
