These lines play on the Nursery Rhyme, The Three Little Pigs.

The Big Bad Wolf contacts three little pigs and their houses: one made of straw, another made of sticks, and the last made of bricks. He is able to blow down the first two houses, catch, and eat the pigs, but not the brick house. He tries to sneak into the chimney and gets captured in a cauldron, cooked and eaten by the third and most practical pig.

Blaque establishes himself as the Big Bad Wolf of rap. He can’t be killed in the rap game and will always come back to finish wack rappers (pigs).

“Fuck you, pay me” is a famous line from the gangster flick Goodfellas. Jon compares record labels to gangsters, because neither of them care about anything besides making a lot of money.

Jon mentions in an interview that these lines have to do with the percentage of publishing he got for Eminem’s “The Monster”:

When you get a song placed with two of the top stars in the world, like Rihanna and Eminem, especially as a new writer, they’re gonna take a huge chunk of your publishing. That’s just the way the business is. I’m not complaining. It got my foot in the door and during the success of “Monster” I put out my second mix tape, “The Separation” and it sold 100,000 within the first week from my website alone.

He also mentioned that he took a different route when it came to Jason Derulo’s “Trumpets” by asking for “90 percent of the publishing.”

Jets can only fly within the Earth’s atmosphere, Keyz is in space. Did you notice how he alluded to George Jetson’s boss, Cosmo G. Spacely, from the animated TV series, The Jetsons
