B.M.F. (Blowin Money Fast)

Rick Ross' song "B.M.F. (Blowin' Money Fast)" is a powerful anthem that delves into themes of wealth, power, and the street life. The repeated references to "Big Meech" and "Larry Hoover" are significant; both are notorious figures in the world of organized crime. Big Meech, or Demetrius Flenory, was a co-founder of the Black Mafia Family, a drug trafficking and money laundering organization. Larry Hoover is the founder of the Gangster Disciples, a Chicago-based gang. By likening himself to these figures, Rick Ross is asserting his dominance and success in the rap game, drawing parallels between his rise to fame and the notorious rise of these criminal figures.

The lyrics are filled with imagery of opulence and success. Ross mentions his "Rolls Royce triple black" and "bottles" in the club, painting a picture of a lavish lifestyle. The line "Cocaine running in my big vein" is a metaphor for the high stakes and high rewards of his hustle. The song's chorus, "One nation under God, real niggas getting money from the fucking start," suggests a sense of unity and divine blessing among those who have made it from the bottom to the top. This line also reflects the idea of the American Dream, albeit through a lens of street entrepreneurship and resilience.

Ross' declaration of being "self-made" is a recurring theme in the song. He contrasts himself with others who are merely "affiliates" or "suckas," emphasizing his authenticity and hard-earned success. The song also touches on loyalty and betrayal, with lines like "Got a hundred on a head of a snitch nigga," highlighting the harsh realities of the street life. The overall tone of the song is one of triumph and defiance, celebrating the fruits of hard work and the relentless pursuit of success, no matter the means.
