Contradiction.
Hypocrisy.
Inconsistency.
Brown boy.
These are all words that sum up NAV’s lyrics pretty nicely.
Now NAV might be the best brown boy in the game, but that certainly doesn’t mean he’s
the best lyricist in the game.
So today, we’ll be looking at what I think the 10 Worst NAV Lyrics are.
This is CDTVProductions, you can of course follow me on twitter and Instagram under that
name, and let’s get into this video.
10 - Good For It - “my shorty 21 she in her prime years, I don’t want her body I
want her mind yeah”
Are you saying you don’t want this girl for her looks, you instead want her for her
intellect?
Cause I have files on top of files that prove that theory wrong.
There’s this one.
Or this one.
And even this one.
Yeah, I don’t think her mind is what you’re after.
9 - Re Up - “Born alone, die alone”
I don’t know if NAV somehow materialised out of thin air, but if not, he wasn’t born
alone.
You literally came out of someone.
Into someone else hands who was waiting on the other side.
I hate to instantly bring the mood of this video down, but NAV is half right here, there’s
a chance for all of us that we might die alone, but the first half just doesn’t make sense.
8 - What Do You Do - “Just cause it's Japanese don't mean that that's a foreign car”
Unless you’re from Japan, yes it does mean it’s a foreign car.
It might not be an expensive, exotic car, but technically it is still foreign.
I get what the line is going for, but the purpose of this series is to nitpick for entertainment,
those Japanese cars are foreign cars NAV.
7 - Did You See NAV?
- “Industry wouldn’t be **** without me”
I beg to differ.
When have you ever heard anyone say “I was inspired to make music by NAV”?
Or “NAV is changing the game and the way the industry works”?
I’m assuming the answer is never.
I think the game would be alright without the living embodiment of rap cliches existing
within it.
6 - Ratchets - “My fans be screamin' louder than the crowd at March Madness”
Yeah I don’t quite think they compare, and that might be because NAV potentially has
the stiffest stage presence I’ve ever seen and half of his performance is him holding
the mic to the crowd.
March Madness crowds take the W here.
5 - Nothing On You - “They tryna find you a good guy, But ill treat you better than
him, He ain't got no guap, he ain't got no whip and I dress better than him”
So you’re gonna treat her better and be a better boyfriend because you care about
money and materialistic things above anything else?
Yeah, aight.
See, just based on some other NAV lyrics, I really don’t think he’s gonna treat
this woman better than most.
No yeah, if I was a girl I’d love NAV to be my man, he sounds so caring.
4 - The Man - “I need a ***** that's got some substance, All these ******* want is
money”
Well, this instantly contradicts the previous line.
You just said you would treat a woman better specifically because you’re rich... and
then you get upset because women want you for your money.
Just listen to 5 NAV songs and tell me what he’s more interested in.
Good looking women that he can have one night stands with, or as he says here, women with
substance who he can have deep, intimate talks with.
Psst the answer is the first one.
3 - Mission - “I swear the 6 feel like the Gaza”
...Gaza..
Toronto.... feels like Gaza apparently.
Now I’m not saying Toronto is the safest area in the world or anything, because it
definitely sees it’s fair share of crime.
But Gaza is generally considered to be a legitimate war zone.
Like, many governments have issued warnings about travelling there because things can
go south at any minute.
I understand hyperbole is often used in rap, but this is potentially one of the most out
there cases of it.
2 - Glow Up - “I grabbed that *** and she call me a perv, opened her legs so I had to
insert”
Look I’ve mentioned this like a couple times before when talking about awful NAV lyrics,
but it just has to be brought up again because of how goddamn creepy it sounds.
Why are you so obsessed with making yourself sound like this NAV?
Look, I don’t think Nav is one, or intended to sound that way because, why would you intend
to sound that way, but did nobody point out to him how incredibly non-consensual this
line sounds.
But, it doesn’t stop here with the lyrics that make you squirm, because we have just
one more...
1 - Up “Remember these ******* ain't wanna ****, Now she give me **** outside of Toys
R Us”
Out of all the places in the world you could choose to get h outside of... why Toys R Us
Nav?
Not only does the line sound suuuuper suspect because you’re specifically mentioning the
fact that you’re performing that act in front of a toy store for children, but the
fact that you’re even taking the risk of a child seeing said act is the most questionable
thing I’ve ever heard.
You can’t just casually throw that into the chorus of your song and expect it to just
breeze by Mr Navraj.
There’s a million other stores or just general places you could choose that fit the rhyme
scheme and sound way less creepy; “now she give me h whenever I wake up”, “now she
give me h outside Dunkin’ Donuts”, “now she give me h outside of the Starbucks”.
But no.
Toys R Us is what you landed on, and I will forever question it.
