When Nicki Minaj re-released her 2009 mixtape Beam Me Up Scotty on May 14, 2021, she added three new songs, including this YMCMB family reunion where Drake and Lil Wayne join her to flex about their wealth and accomplishments.
The rappers each give an individual meaning to the title phrase. 1. Lil Wayne That cash blue, but I'm still seein' green I'm in the bathroom, and I'm peein' lean Here, "seeing green" has two meanings. According to Genius, "Blue" sounds like "blew," as in Weezy has blown a lot of money, but there's still plenty of green (the color of dollar bills) to be seen. Also, Wayne is intoxicated after sippin lean. He is trippin, which is why he's seeing blue bills and his vision is green. 2. Nicki Minaj Ain't no C in green, but I'm seein' green The meaning is unclear but some fans speculated it is a poke at CeeLo Green, who in 2020 criticized the sexual content female rappers like Minaj employ in their rhymes. After fans took umbrage he issued an apology. 3. Drake Thought I was seein' things when I was seein' green 6 G-O-D, CMB, yes sir Green is the color of growth, and since his signing by Young Money in 2009, Drake has positioned himself as the GOAT in the rap game; or, according to Drizzy himself, the "6 God."
This is the first collaboration between Minaj, Drake and Wayne since their 2017 single "No Frauds." However, the braggadocios lyrical content is a closer fit to their 2014 hook-up on The Pinkprint, "Truffle Butter."
