A reference to his song Illuminate in which he says:
“I used to wanna rap like Jay Z, now I feel I could run laps round Jay Z”.
Seems as though he’s still got the hunger to run laps around him.
“Meet” is also wordplay on track meet, since he plans on running laps w/ Hov.
UPDATE: Soulo has officially met Jay-Z now! Wonder how the track meet went.
The first one used to make beats for CL Smooth

As a reference (and homage) to legendary producer Pete Rock, who produced with CL Smooth for their group Pete Rock and CL Smooth, and the song “#1 Soul Brother” off his solo album “Soul Survivor”. Not the first time he’s adopted this moniker.

A nice stream of puns centered around The Notorious B.I.G..
He wants you to hand over your money, playing off the Biggie track “Gimme the Loot” from his classic album Ready to Die.
He’s also puffing the sticky (smoking weed) with Puffy, but in this case, he’s not referring to Diddy (known as Puff Daddy during Biggie’s career). Soulo is smoking bud in NYC with Schoolboy Q, the self-proclaimed new “Puffy”.
