Butter and Cheddar both refer to money in this instance, but vastly different amounts. “Butter” is immediately more luxurious, seductive, and attractive. “Cheddar” has that Government cheese aura around it, and the tag line of poverty attached to it.

Future’s is stacking up mills, completing an epic transition from the gutter to the top of the game. The competition is stacking cheese, just trying to survive, a situation he is all too familiar with.

This explains the title of the song “Nature of the Threat”. The whole song is explaining the “nature” of the seemingly violent, savage and sadistic nature of the white race, a warning to Ras Kass’s fellow blacks that white people are the threat.

Lupe grew up seeing a lot of horrible things going on so he turned to rapping to bring attention and hopefully make a change in the world.

Lupe saw rapping as a way to make a change, hoping his songs would incite something for the better. The previous verse introduced the racial issues and social inequality found in everyday life, so in this verse, he voices his solution to the problem: spreading the word. Like the pharaoh King Tut, the youngest pharaoh in Egyptian history is remembered and has a legacy.

Usually when something like a story or a song – or in this case both – is too complex, people who don’t understand tend to just dislike it. As a result, they end up saying things like: “It sucks”, “It’s bad”, “It’s trash”, etc. However, the truth is that they simply don’t get it.

In this dialogue, some of that is bound to be happening with such a young child, but the fact that Lupe ended the story so abruptly doesn’t help either.
