The beat, produced by Tech-Neek, has a Chaka Khan sample, making it sound rather soulful.
However, it’s also powerful, which lead Vizzy to reference the Mortal Kombat character (often featured on the Boss Levels), Shao Kahn.

This is a reference to the classic baseball movie “Sandlot” series.
“Benny the Jet” refers to Benjamin Rodriguez, the best player from the Sandlot crew, so a “Benny the Jet hit” is most likely a homerun.
Which leads to the later part of the line, another Sandlot reference. Because he “hits homeruns”, he also gets girls(chicks on his weenie).
The “L7” part of the verse refers to the main character of the “Sandlot” series being called an “L7 weenie” by Squints Palledorous. The L7, of course, being a roundabout way to call someone a “square”
XV also uses the L7/Square reference to evoke his “Squarian” movement. His upcoming EP is titled L7: Life, Love, Loyalty, and Live Life Like Legends.
This isn’t the first time he has referenced The Sandlot either. XV also alludes to it on JY’s song “Say Yeah”
