The True Meaning Behind 'Holy Smokes' By Trippie Redd Featuring Lil Uzi Vert

April 2024 ยท 2 minute read

Trippie Redd bares his true feelings about being a multi-platinum young rockstar, but feeling like the money isn't worth the one thing that he is missing from his life. "Holy f***in' smokes, I got my money up / Countin' all these bands, took me a while just to damn run it up/ Multi millions, I fill a hundred up/ All this cash on me but I still can't buy love," he raps. The lyrics paint the classic tale that money can't buy love. "Put the hunduns in the Chanel, got my racks up... Got two accounts, still got millions in my backup/ All this cash on me, but this money still won't buy love," the chorus continues.

Redd was seen in multiple relationships that went sour, like with rapper Coi Leray and social media influencer, Ayleks. Ayleks was Redd's most notable relationship, but she allegedly cheated on him with his enemy, rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine. Leray and Redd also had a very public relationship but eventually had a messy breakup. Redd included a song called "Leray" on his album "A Love Letter to You 4," which saw him calling her "an idiot," amongst other revelations.

However, things still haven't quite settled on "Holy Smokes." These relationship woes would make anyone feel weary, and Redd doesn't shy away from telling people that he's tired of it. "Baby girl, I'm exhausted/ Baby, be cautious," Redd continues. "Know the streets be talkin'/Every day, walk with a check and a motherf***in' target."
