Notice the light wordplay here

Juicy J in these two lines is using the contrast of opposites to emphasize his point:

  • His weed is “loud” (slang for “potent”) but you aren’t about that life so you don’t want any weed, you want quiet and thus “shut the fuck up”
  • Juicy J is high on the top floor but “shawty” is sober down below, he’s inviting her to get high as him but to also have a good time like he usually does

Some drugs induce tachycardia, above normal heart rates (resting heart rates above 100 beats per minute are standard).

However, some measly shit like a dangerously elevated heartbeat isn’t going to stop Juicy J. In his own words:

Norman R. Augustine was the CEO and Chairman of the Martin Marietta Corporation who made this statement. It is important to note that Martin Marietta held very lucrative government contracts, producing the Titan rocket family, tooled for aerospace and military intercontinental ballistic missiles. ICBMs have one goal and one goal only: delivering nuclear warheads.

Martin Marietta Corporation would go on to be merged with Lockheed Corporation in 1995 to form Lockheed Martin (one of the largest defense contractors in the world). Guess who became CEO of Lockheed Martin once it was formed…that’s right, Norman R. Augustine. In 2008, Lockheed Martin pulled in $36 billion from government contracts alone. It’s involved with over 24 federal agencies ranging from the CIA to the Postal Service.

Most of King’s speeches in the final year of his life began to include a War On Poverty theme (he enacted the Poor People’s Campaign this year). An example being one of King’s last great speeches, “Remaining Awake Through A Great Revolution” he decries the reality of America and protests for a return to its ideals, along with attempts to remedy inherent flaws in how power is distributed.

He took obvious issue with military adventurism and imperialism, socio-economic disparities, and other issues of social justice that most of the country did not seem concerned with then (or since).

This issue of opportunistic politicians cut from a different cloth as MLK Jr., attempting to associate their own goals and public personas with the venerable human rights activist, has come up again but this time with the first black president, Barack Obama, and American intellectual Dr. Cornel West.

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was one of the country’s last great human rights activists who campaigned for African American civil rights along with social justice and equality. Some presidents, namely Clinton and Barack Obama, do not fail to notice that their inauguration falls on the same day as the nationwide celebration of MLK Jr’s birthday, January 20th (21st some years) and use it to garner public appeal.

A reference to what was emphatically called the “Clinton Vision”, a grand plan for America and it’s citizens. It’s interesting that Clinton believes in pushing a vision which the people lethargically support, understandably, because the “Clinton Vision” is mainly one for business (NAFTA) and soon to the military would be favored by the master rhetorician.
