On my way to the penthouse, tend a little me-ha
Her friend like meet her, you don't know Tyga?
She don't really care 'bout neither
Either, I'm too far where her mind can't reach up
Or she don't like music making money niggas
I do know that I ain't got time I maneuvers
Like that, voodoo, like that, you knew
Me don't, I'm already high rap guru
This section of the rap by Tyga is explaining how if women do not know about Tyga, then they are not cool or current, because he is the “rap guru”.
Tyga does not use many end rhymes in this stanza, instead he uses more slant rhymes. These can only be heard after you listen to the song. In the first line he ends with the word “me-ha” which slant rhymes and cross rhymes with the word “her” in the second line. The second line has an end rhyme with the first line, rhyming the words “me-ha” and “tyga”. This rhyme is again a slant rhyme. The artist, Tyga raps the words in such a way that they rhyme. In the third line the A rhyme scheme is kept with the word “neither” and then it is crossed rhymed with the word “either” in the next line.
The second half to the stanza changes from an A rhyme scheme to a B one. This helps keep the rhythm. The rhythm comes mostly from slant rhymes and cross rhymes. This creates a distinct rhythm, because most people are used to end rhymes, but Tyga chooses to use cross rhymes and slant rhymes. This creates a catchy beat that I highly enjoy. I think the word selection is weak, he rhymes words that do not make much sense, or they could have been explained in a better way. For example, line seven makes little sense. “Like that, Voodoo, Like that, you knew”, this line could be explained better, but instead the artist attempts to keep a beat rather than a context.
