"500lbs" is a hip-hop song with elements of drill music. The song is about Lil Tecca's wealth, success, lifestyle, and devotion to his girl.
Don't know when I stay out of town I get dough when I stay out of town Five hundred chops, I got five hundred rounds Five hundred plots, I got five hundred pounds, yeah Lil Tecca's all about jet-setting, soaking in global scenes, but he's also loves vibing in his crib. He told Genius in a video: "It's like, 'Yeah, I get dough when I stay out of town,' but I'm really tryna be home right now."
So, why name the track after weight instead of cash? Lil Tecca's playing with metaphors, maybe talking about the weight of fame or the expectations he's carrying. Or maybe it's just a catchy phrase he thought would stick. You know, something easy to remember and belt out. Titles matter for hits. And the reason for the "lbs" instead of spelling out "pounds"? It's that chill vibe, keeping it informal. Also tossing in "pounds" instead of "dollars" adds that UK flavor, shouting out Tecca's overseas adventures.
