Bobby and his people are going to be at the top. This is an interesting line as he is admitting they are not currently at the top, something most rappers wouldn’t do.
But it is true, as of this explanation (06/April/13) he does not even have his own Wikipedia article.
Plus Stay On It is the name of Bobby’s most recent mixtape.

“This Woman’s Work” is about being forced to confront an unexpected and frightening crisis during the normal event of childbirth. Used in the movie She’s Having a Baby, director John Hughes used the song during the film’s dramatic climax, when Jake (Kevin Bacon) learns that the lives of his wife (Elizabeth McGovern) and their unborn child are in danger.
As the song plays, we see a montage sequence of flashbacks showing the couple in happier times, intercut with shots of him waiting for news of Elizabeth and their baby’s condition. Bush wrote the song specifically for the sequence, writing from a man’s (Jake’s) viewpoint and matching the words to the visuals which had already been filmed.
The version of the song that was featured on The Sensual World was re-edited from the original version featured on the film soundtrack. The version released as a single was a third, slightly different mix.
“It was written for John Hughes' film She’s having A Baby. Really light comedy about this young guy who gets married, very much a kid. His wife is pregnant and it’s alright until they get to the hospital and the baby’s in the breach position.
“That’s the sequence I have to write the songs about and it’s really very moving, him in the waiting room, having flashbacks of his wife and him going for walks, decoration…It’s exploring his sadness and guilt, suddenly it’s the point where he has to grow up. He’d been such a wally up to this point.”
