“Blick Blick” by Coi Leray & Nicki Minaj

For starters, the lyrics do not actually reveal what the term “blick, blick” is supposed to mean. It is one of those words which if you were to google it, a bunch of different colloquial definitions will pop up. But in context, “blick” is apparently intended to be the emulation of the sound a gun makes when firing. And accordingly, the way Coi Leray uses the expression in the chorus is in relation to “pop(ping) up on a opp” and bringing it to them.

But of course, we’re not realistically supposed to believe that the likes of Coi Leray and Nicki Minaj are actually going to hit the streets and gun somebody down. So what such boasting is actually meant to point to, ultimately, is the idea of the vocalists being boss chicks. As such, this song is filled with various types of braggadocio. And considering the artists at hand, what the ladies take most pride in is their sexual prowess, wealth and gangsta-ness. 

But that said, there’s also notable lines here and there, such as Nicki giving a shoutout to the late DMX and alluding to the notion of being personal friends with Jeff Bezos, one of the utmost richest men in the world.

Some Interesting Facts
