Could be a diss: “Greedy mother fudge-cake (5th grader diss), tell me how my ass tastes!”

Or a brag: “I’m a Hedonistic bon vivant, greedy for life – and also quite the foodie! – would you like to have a taste of this flourless German chocolate cake?”

This line most likely inspired Shaquille O'Neal’s 2008 invitation to Kobe Bryant to taste his Shaq-ass

“Cut” means have sex – if a girl wants to have sex she needs Lil Wayne (just as you put ointment on a cut to help it heal)

Unfortunately Lil Wayne is too busy (having sex with other girls, etc) to have the time for her (i.e., get in line, ladies!)

#TRIPLE ENTENDRE ALERT:

I. She wants to lick the “wrapper”. Lollipops are sweet and come in wrappers.

II. She wants to lick Wayne’s wrapper AKA condom. Which ties into the previous lines about safe sex and “wrapping it up”

III. He’s so sweet that she wants to lick the “rapper” (That’s a homophone, kids) AKA Wayne himself.

When sex is referred to as “safe,” it often refers to when the male wears a condom—a contraceptive which is often made out of latex—to prevent the transfer of STDs (sexually transmitted diseases) and to prevent pregnancy.

Wayne continues to promote the use of contraceptives as he notes that if one is not used during sex, then the male will most likely get a text reading “I think I’m late.” This refers to the female’s period being missed as it’s a sign of a halt in ovulation due to an egg being fertilized.

While promoting safety in sex, Wayne takes advantage of this as he again shows off his critically acclaimed wordplay as he rhymes “great sex,” “latex,” and “late text” together.

In April 2021, almost 13 years following the release of the song, Wayne redacted to this particular lyric with Fox Sports‘ reporter, Darnell Smith in an unreleased interview in which he revealed he completely freestyled the track:

I’mma dog! I didn’t know when I said that or why I said that, but I said it… I don’t write, man.

Frito-Lay is known for their “Bet you can’t eat just one” ad campaign. Like the chips, Kanye doesn’t want to sleep with just one woman.
