Even if there’s a major crisis, he’s associated with the very people that make those crises happen, so he won’t be affected. His lyrics are saying that he is part of the “chosen”, the elite, the secret group that cannot be harmed by the trials and tribulations of the “small people”. So Jay-Z lyrics have NOTHING to do with love, friendship or any type of relationship. Jay-Z is already bad and he is asking Rihanna to join him. He has been possessed by the Devil, contrarily to Rihanna, who he calls “little Ms. Is he talking about the recession that is happening now? Seems like he had prior knowledge of the events that would occur in the future.
Jay-Z says here that he was expecting this major crisis (the precipitation) and so he has prepared financially to face it. G5 is a kind of private jet so he will live in luxury even when the crisis strikes the rest of the world.Īn anticipation, for precipitation. The fact that he says “WE fly higher than the weather” implies that a select few can have the same kind of privileges he has. He enjoys a protection that makes him invulnerable to the storm. “We fly higher than the weather” means that Jay-Z cannot be affected by the financial crisis because he is above the problem. accurately proclaimed in 1930: “From now on depressions will be scientifically created.” Many historians claim the Rockefellers have engineered the crash of 1929 to be able to obtain a stronghold on America’s banking system. Rockefeller and his family, the biggest industrialists in American History and huge actors in the formation of the social-economic world we’re currently living in.
“Rocafella” is the name of Jay-Z’s record label. In other words, when the financial crisis will occur, we won’t be here to suffer through it. When the clouds come we gone, we Rocafella In other words, while the bank is being flooded by this storm and people are drowning in it, he’s above the water and surviving the crisis. Jay-Z is saying “Let it rain”, he doesn’t care about the financial crisis, he “hydroplanes in the bank”. You’ll notice that the whole song has a pessimistic outlook concerning the future. If it plummets, we can talk about a market crash. The Dow Jones is the main indicator of the health of the stock market. “Coming down with the Dow Jones” reflects this situation. So the “storm” is in fact related to the economy and the financial world. There is a reason why the album is called “Good Girl Gone Bad”. We’ll see how the Devil tries and succeeds at possessing Rihanna in this song. Instead, their thoughts are given to them by their possessor.
In possession, the human being cannot think for themselves. Possession, in relationship to non-human entities, deals with the phenomena wherein a non-human entity controls the human being through various methods. The video of the song makes this very clear and we’ll explain how later. So the song is basically a dialog between the Devil and Rihanna. For the purpose of this analysis, we’ll call this entity the Devil. During the first half of the song, she plays the role of an evil entity that is trying to seduce and possess Rihanna. The first thing that you need to know about the song’s lyrics is that Rihanna sings the whole song but she actually takes on two roles. The one that protects basically owns the person that is protected. The song is not about love between woman and man, it’s about being protected. When you are under something’s protection, this something has more power than you regarding your own security.
In this song, “You can stand under my umbrella” can have a sexual connotation but it mostly means “You can be under my protection”. In a nutshell, the song talks about a storm that’s about to take place and Rihanna offers her loved one protection under her umbrella.
