[Produced by Lex Luger]

[Intro: Rick Ross]
Ugh
Ugh
We blowing money fast on this side, nigga
Catch up, nigga

[Chorus: Rick Ross]
I think I'm Big Meech (Ugh), Larry Hoover
Whippin' work, hallelujah
One nation under God
Real niggas gettin' money from the fuckin' start
I think I'm Big Meech (Woo), Larry Hoover (Woo)
Gettin' work, hallelujah
One nation, under God
Real niggas gettin' money from the fuckin' start

[Verse 1: Rick Ross]
My Rolls Royce triple-black, I'm Geechee, ho
Ballin' in the club, bottles like I'm Meechie, ho
Rozay—that's my nickname
Cocaine runnin' in my big veins
Self-made, you just affiliated
I build it ground-up, you bought it renovated
Talkin' plenty capers, nothing's been authenticated
Funny, you claimin' the same bitch that I'm penetrating
Hold the bottles up, where my comrades?
Where the fuckin' felons? Where my dogs at?
(Ugh!) I got that Archie Bunker
And it's so white, I just might charge you double
[Chorus: Rick Ross]
I think I'm Big Meech (Ugh), Larry Hoover
Whippin' work, hallelujah
One nation, under God
Real niggas gettin' money from the fuckin' start
I think I'm Big Meech (Woo), Larry Hoover (Woo)
Gettin' work, hallelujah
One nation, under God
Real niggas gettin' money from the fuckin' start

[Verse 2: Rick Ross]
These motherfuckers mad that I'm icy! (Boss)
Stunt so hard, make them come indict me (Ugh)
I think I'm Big Meech, look at my timepiece
It's an Audem-eer, hundred racks, at least
Look at yourself, now look at me (Me!)
You can't see a nigga, I'm what you used to be (Ha)
Look at it this way (Yeah), you niggas sideways (Sideways)
Always gettin' money, my nigga, crime pays (Crime pays)
So fuck a nigga (Fuck a nigga), I'm self-made (Self-made)
You a sucker nigga (Sucker nigga), I'm self-paid (Self-paid)
This for my broke niggas (Broke niggas), this for my rich niggas (Rich niggas)
Got a hundred on a head of a snitch nigga (Ugh)

[Chorus: Rick Ross & Styles P]
I think I'm Big Meech, Larry Hoover
Whippin' work, hallelujah
One nation, under God
Real niggas gettin' money from the fuckin' start
I think I'm Big Meech (Woo), Larry Hoover (Ross, what up?)
Gettin' work, hallelujah (S.P. the Ghost)
One nation, under God (Y'all niggas know what it is)
Real niggas gettin' money from the fuckin' start (Let's get it, my nigga, yeah)
[Verse 3: Styles P]
Them thirty-six holes leave you bleedin', family (Bleedin')
Word to them thirty-six O's in a kilogram (Ha)
Blunt tip orange like caviar
Wildin' out, fishtailin', Subaru, rally car (Fishtailin')
Out the passenger, lettin' the automatty off (Let it off)
A eighth of that girl'll knock your mommy and your daddy off (You know that!)
Fuck around and knock the emblem on the Caddy off (Fuck around)
Four shooters buggin' out, blickin' at your Caddy doors (Blick-outs)
And did I mention: guns from Red Dead Redemption? (Did I?)
Nine-mils, fifty-clip extensions (A long clip)
Coke is like a mattress in the hood: I'm flippin' on it (I'm flippin')
And the money's like a chair: I'm sittin' on it (Keep quiet, nigga)

[Chorus: Rick Ross]
I think I'm Big Meech (Ugh), Larry Hoover
Whippin' work, hallelujah
One nation, under God
Real niggas gettin' money from the fuckin' start
I think I'm Big Meech (Woo), Larry Hoover (Woo)
Gettin' work, hallelujah
One nation, under God
Real niggas gettin' money from the fuckin' start

When it comes to anthems that make you feel like a boss, "B.M.F." by Rick Ross featuring Styles P, is definitely one of them. The track, which stands for "Blowin' Money Fast," is one of the biggest hits of Ross' career, known for its bombastic production and catchy lyrics.

About B.M.F. (Blowin’ Money Fast)

The song "B.M.F." (Blowin' Money Fast) was released on the album "Teflon Don" by Rick Ross, in July 2010. It was produced by the then-up-and-coming producer Lex Luger, who gained fame for his unique production style on this song. The beat features pounding bass, thunderous drums, and a sample of "I Am the Black Gold of the Sun" by the British band Nuyorican Soul.

The song opens with Ross' deep voice, "I think I’m Big Meech, Larry Hoover," referring to the leaders of the Black Mafia Family and Gangster Disciples, two notorious gangs based in the United States. The hook, "I'm blowin' money fast, fast, fast," repeats throughout the song and solidifies the theme of living a lavish, materialistic lifestyle. The track also features a verse from Styles P, who brings his signature gritty flow to the song.

This song became immensely popular, not only for its production but also for the way in which it celebrated and glorified the idea of living a life of excess. Ross raps about owning multiple properties, luxury cars, and designer clothes, as well as references to notorious drug dealers. The swaggering lyrics, combined with the explosive beat, made the song a hit in the clubs and on the radio.

One of the most memorable lines of the song comes at the end of the first verse, "I’m ridin' in the monster, you know what that mean. I’m getting money, big money, I’m a Big Dog." This line showcases Ross' larger-than-life personality and his love for expensive cars (the 'Monster' in this case) while proclaiming himself as a big player in the game.

Aside from its popularity, the song also faced controversy for its glamorization of a lifestyle that is often associated with illegal activities. Some criticized Ross for the use of gang references and drug dealer shout-outs, which they felt promoted negative behavior and celebrated a dangerous lifestyle.

Despite the criticism, "B.M.F." proved to be a massive hit and solidified Rick Ross' status as one of the most influential rappers of his generation. Its impact on hip-hop can still be heard today, with artists such as 2 Chainz and Kanye West citing it as an inspiration for their own work.

Conclusions

"B.M.F." (Blowin' Money Fast) is a song that celebrates the lavish lifestyle of rappers, and their love for materialistic things. The track became immensely popular due to its incredible production, catchy hook, and memorable lyrics. With references to notorious gang leaders and drug dealers, the song is not without controversy, but it remains one of the biggest hits of Rick Ross' career.
