It’s presumed that the girl he’s dating at the moment is TDE affiliate Jhené Aiko. They’ve been hanging out quite a bunch and Jhené even confirmed they were “dating” and testing the waters.

If that is the case and they are dating, it would make sense that they would not want a child at this time. Both of them are doing big things and wouldn’t have time to take care of a child.

(Update: they ain’t)

Rozay plays on the hit Drake song “Started From The Bottom” to describe how that while him and his girl were in bed, they were having fun with her on the bottom of the two of them, and she worked her way up to the top. We all know he wouldn’t mind that, letting her do all of the work.

The chorus of this song is actually a bit reminiscent of a beginning line in their song Don’t Save Me. She thinks that maybe remembering the good times of the relationship can actually save it, but it is so bad at the moment, nothing they can do could really save it.

Clever, clever

Keep in mind that it’s been rumored that this song is about Rachel Antonoff, the sister of one of the members of the band, Jack Antonoff. Jack’s best friend’s name is Daniel (who’s their photographer). Put it together and it’s Jack Daniel’s – the whiskey, which is an inebriate. And they must have both been acting up the party.

This is a common sentiment Donald likes to bring up frequently in his songs; people love hating on Donald yet only do it behind his back.

This could be in reference to the fact that at times (one could even say Donald did it in this song), he puts himself down or can appear self-deprecating; there could be several reasons for this, one possibly being he knows what people say about him and he reiterates it because he himself knows it is true. By doing that, it shows that he’s real and always will be.

Many people think that Donald is self-deprecating to a fault as well as highly misogynistic so they won’t give his music a chance; however, if one were to really listen to his music, they could see that:

  1. As a comedian, he likes to incorporate jokes and weird lines in his rhymes.

  2. As Donald himself has said before, sometimes it’s the stupidest shit that’s actually the realest.

Gross but whatever, at least he’s honest (and always will be).

Also in his song Outside, he says,

Mrs. Glover ma'am, your son is so advanced, but he’s acting up in class and keeps peeing in his pants

It’s possible he may be admitting a problem that he’s had since youth.

Fam Udoerji is a close friend of Donald’s. He also appears in his short film “Clapping for the Wrong Reasons” various times (more notably near the end).

Many people believe that Donald left the television show he was on (Community) because he wasn’t feeling the show as much as he used to or because he wanted to focus more on music. In actuality, he took a reduced role on Community because he wanted to be “his own”.

As Donald has said before, he likes keeping himself busy with the stuff he likes doing (which is partly why he left 30 Rock after only a couple of seasons; he wanted to do more stuff!). As an actor, writer, rapper, good luck trying to hold him down.
