The Pursuit of Wealth Over Love in 'Rover (Mu-La-La)'
S1MBA's 'Rover (Mu-La-La)' featuring DTG is a track that delves into the artist's preference for financial success over romantic relationships. The song's lyrics depict a scenario where a woman, attracted by the artist's display of wealth as symbolized by his Rover, expresses interest in him. However, S1MBA makes it clear that his focus is on making money, referred to as 'mu-la-la', rather than pursuing love or emotional connections.
The repeated chorus, 'I just wanna make the mu-la-la,' emphasizes the artist's primary goal of accumulating wealth. The term 'mu-la-la' is a playful variation of 'moolah', a slang term for money, and the repetition of this phrase, along with 'Got 'em all screaming: Oh-la-la,' suggests that the artist's financial success is both a personal objective and a spectacle that draws attention and admiration from others. The artist's disinterest in romantic commitment is further highlighted by lines such as 'I don't want no love' and 'I don't need your loving, so don't tell me nothing.'
The song also touches on themes of independence and self-reliance. S1MBA expresses a desire to achieve his goals 'on my ones', meaning on his own, without the need for a partner. He dismisses the idea of being 'cuffed', or tied down in a relationship, reinforcing his commitment to personal freedom and financial ambition. The lyrics 'I love being paid' and 'Tryna get my funds up in numerous ways' underline the artist's entrepreneurial spirit and his pursuit of various avenues to increase his wealth.
