الحمد لله‎, Alhamdulillah, is an Arabic phrase meaning praise to god; Elec is giving praise to God for his success.

Also note that this is an Islamic reference. Along with the other Christian references on this verse, it reflects Jay’s 5 Percenter beliefs, which are an integral part of his music

PROPOSED SUGGESTION: الحمد لله‎, or Alhamdulillah, is also used in many Arabic dialects as a response to the question “How are you?” To respond with Alhamdulillah is to say that you are truly happy and at peace.

In this way, Jay Electron is also saying that he is more than content with his place in hip-hop right now. In other words, saying shit to him is pointless because he is just feeling to good.

Krept cleverly uses wordplay to reference the Germany vs. Brazil game from the 2014 FIFA World Cup. He’s saying he has 7 awards to your 1 just like the number of goals Germany had over Brazil.

Brazil might have suffered a major loss on their home soil but Krept had to remind the people of England that their team didn’t even make it that far.
