This line refers to a previous song by Tha Real U called ‘That I’m Dreaming’.

‘That I’m Dreaming’ was released in November 2012 and became Real U’s second underground breakthrough – and first heat-seeker to top 100 downloads on Soundcloud. In March 2013 a music video for the song was released by the label.

Real U states that he despites or feels remorse for the fact that he’s not a sensational Hip-Hop artist.

He however then feels satisfied there of as he covertly calls them fake, by mentioning that his music and identity reflects his true self or true nature.

Real U uses the word ‘suggestion’ to refer to what the norm of Hip-Hop supporters consider lyrically on-point or on-par.

This line works together with the previous two, stating that although modern Hip-Hop has become explicitly sensationalized (morbid collection of adjectives) in lyrics – it is considered lyrical and preferable (audible selection) to listeners.

Secondly, it suggests that modern-Hip Hop is false or not as credible as thought to be, as the word “suggestion” provides a negative connotation to what is considered supreme or definite.

This refers to selective hearing. Real U describes mainstream Hip-Hop as something selected by preference, probing the listeners ignorance to the fact that modern day Hip-Hop is exaggerated and sensationalized.

Real U describes Hip-Hop as an explicit set of sensational language.

The term “adjectives” refers to descriptiveness, qualifying various nouns as found in modern day Hip-Hop such as materialistic possessions (cars, houses, clothes etc…).

Real U is describing his love-life, calling it a fantasy.

Xhosa for “I like you/ I love you”

Tswana & Sepedi for “I Love You”

Real U relocated to St Helena Bay on the West Coast of South Africa in December, 2009. This town of which he then lived is contrary to that of where he moved from. Described as peaceful and tranquil, the environment shaped Real U’s development as an adolescent.

The use of “the sunshine” can either be:

• The sunrise in St Helena Bay which is both beautiful and remarkable as it rises over the sea
• Figuratively seeing or understanding things clearly as visibly as one would see in daylight by the light which the sun provides. This light can also be seen as Jesus, as Real U learned to grow spiritually whilst living in St Helena Bay.

‘La Montagne’ is French for “The Mountain”. This was the name of Real U’s primary school, and also the name of the suburb the school is located in.

After completing his education at La Montagne Primary, Real U was enrolled into Clapham High School, located in Queenswood, Pretoria.
