Kanye could possibly just be saying this to paint a picture of how much his power stretches. The simple aspect that he’s mentioning “talking business” to or about the CIA hints that even though he’s just an entertainer or musician, his power and connections extend far, all because of his greatness.

This also leads in to the next line, featuring former CIA director George Tenet.

Could also be a double entendre meaning “cash in advance.”

Gambino is saying you can burn all the material things hes been able to obtain…now that he’s made it to where he is, will you be proud of him? The term “Burn” symbolizes his lack of importance for material things at the end of the day.

It’s also a reference to the fact that so many long time fans have been speculating whether his new changes, like to his wardrobe and lyrical style, have been for the best. But he’s only doing it to make us proud.

But for the record, at least his parents are proud. They’re the most important after all.

Rick Ross is basically saying that the “fuck boy,” or whomever is being referred to, won’t put down his convertible roof because he’s afraid of getting attacked, JFK style. Kennedy was fatally shot while traveling with his wife Jacqueline, Texas Governor John Connally, and Connally’s wife Nellie, in a presidential motorcade.

While he was out in Europe the people there seemed to be lacking excitement so Andre and his crew threw jewelry out to the people there, thus lacking jewelry to go along with his chain. He then hints that the jewelry “thrown out” was that of “black pearls” and that the Europeans “don’t know about” their true worth…just like that the whole world doesn’t understand the true worth of the black woman.
