Let's get clear. BMSG, you want attention for that mess, don't you?
Your employees are making a mess somewhere again, and of course, comments are padded with stickers.
How many creators had their ideas and references stolen by you guys?
They all cried themselves to sleep, so many victims, yet you have such warm hearts, don't you?
No, today, it's about trampling.
What I step on is "I win."
I don't wanna hear your pathetic rap.
Let's feed your mouth with this rap.
An appeal of having money, a flex with no substance, cheap mass appeal.
My team is a real creative team.
We are a masterclass.
In the end, you guys are just the world's best choreographers, death flags for puppets.
While you drop from Triple A to Triple B class, my rap always hits the bullseye.
The industry head is amazing, CEO. Idiots on the net are hyping you up.
Even that award is full of questions. Even if you're amateurs, the category is Hip Hop?
Wait, why?

Key Grammar Structures

  • Nannin no creator ga "omerani" yokodori "sareta" idea to reference

    ➔ Passive Voice with Colloquial Object Marker

    ➔ The phrase "sareta" is the past tense passive form of `suru` (to do), here meaning 'were taken/stolen.' "omerani" is a colloquial and somewhat aggressive form of `omaera ni` (by you guys/you all). This combination highlights the speaker's direct accusation of plagiarism against the song's target.

  • Watashi ga fumu "nowa" in I win

    ➔ Nominalizer + Topic Marker (No wa)

    ➔ The particle combination "no wa" serves to nominalize the preceding clause (`Watashi ga fumu`, 'what I step on') and mark it as the topic. This structure emphasizes what the speaker does, often implying a contrast or a specific focus on that action. Here, it means 'What I step on is...', implying 'I step on the beat/competition and win'.

  • Omaera no kyoku "tte" zenzen fan ni hibiitenai "jan" todoitenai "jan"

    ➔ Colloquial Topic Marker (Tte) + Strong Negation (Zenzen ~nai) + Informal Confirmation (Jan)

    ➔ This line showcases multiple colloquialisms. "Tte" informally introduces the topic ('As for your songs...'). "Zenzen ~nai" is a strong negative adverbial phrase, meaning 'not at all.' The repeated "jan" is an informal sentence-ending particle similar to 'isn't it?' or 'right?', used for confirmation or making a casual assertion.

  • "Sasuga" shachō kore ga business desu ka?

    ➔ Sarcastic Use of 'Sasuga'

    "Sasuga" (さすが) typically means 'as expected' or 'just as one would expect,' often used in admiration. However, in this context, combined with the critical tone, it's used sarcastically to imply 'typical, just as expected from you (and not in a good way),' criticizing the business practices of the 'shachō' (company president).

  • Senkyo no mae ni furasero soko ni ame "janai to" miserarenai "ndayo" kodomo ni yume

    ➔ Causative Imperative + Conditional 'If Not' + Explanatory/Emphatic 'Ndayo'

    "Furasero" is the causative imperative form of `furaseru` (to make it rain), telling someone to make rain fall. "Janai to" means 'if not' or 'otherwise.' "Miserarenaindayo" combines potential negative (`miserarenai`, 'cannot show'), the explanatory/emphatic `nda`, and the assertive `yo`. The whole phrase means 'You have to make it rain there, otherwise, you can't show children dreams.'

  • Atsui "wari ni wa" kuso hikui kandō uwasa-banashi ni wa tobitsuku danbō

    ➔ Expressing Discrepancy (Wari ni wa)

    ➔ The phrase "wari ni wa" (わりに(は)) is used to express a discrepancy between what is expected and what actually occurs, or between two contrasting qualities. It translates to 'considering X, it is Y' or 'for X, it is Y.' Here, it suggests that despite being 'hot' (meaning hyped or passionate), the emotional impact (`kandō`) is 'damn low.'

  • Dareka o keotoshite jibun o ageru style nani itten no sonna tanjun na hanashi "janē yo"

    ➔ Informal Negative Copula (Janē yo)

    "Janē yo" (じゃねーよ) is a very informal and emphatic contraction of `ja nai yo` (じゃないよ), meaning 'It's not that!' or 'That's not it!' It's a strong rejection or denial, often used to express irritation or disagreement. This shows the speaker strongly refuting the idea that their actions are merely about kicking others down to raise themselves.

  • Go Hiromi toka gyagu ni "nigen'nayo"

    ➔ Informal Negative Imperative (N'na yo)

    "Nigen'nayo" (逃げんなよ) is a highly colloquial and strong negative imperative, formed from `nigeru` (to run away) + `na` (negative imperative particle) + `yo` (emphasis). It means 'Don't run away!' or 'Don't you dare run away!' It conveys a firm and assertive command, often used among close friends or in confrontational situations.

  • Hotto de no yatsu janaku motto supotto "atarubeki" rapper ga "irunoni"

    ➔ Obligation/Suitability (~beki) + Counter-Expectation (~noni)

    "Atarubeki" (当たるべき) uses `~beki` to mean 'should receive' or 'deserves to receive' a spotlight. "Irunoni" (いるのに) uses `~noni` to express a sense of counter-expectation or regret: 'even though there are (rappers who deserve the spotlight).' This combination highlights the speaker's frustration that deserving artists are overlooked while others are praised.

  • Omaerawa rap o tsukatteru "dakede" awādo chart o hiphop mon ni surunowa nandena no?

    ➔ Expressing 'Just By / Only By' (Dake de)

    "Dake de" (だけで) means 'just by' or 'only by,' indicating that something is achieved or happens with minimal effort or a limited condition. Here, it implies that the target simply *uses* rap, rather than embodying its spirit, to achieve chart success or awards, which the speaker views as undeserved or illegitimate.
