“Hard White (Up In The Club)” is the first official single from American rapper Yelawolf‘s upcoming debut studio album (through Shady Records and Interscope Records), Radioactive.
The Banger of a Track features Lil Jon, and the song premiered on Interscope’s official YouTube channel in August 2011.
The song was recorded in Patchwark Studios, with Kawan “KP” Prather and Yelawolf’s manager J Dot, while production was handled by Orlando, Florida-based producers team Hydrox (Mike Jaxx, Lex “Ace” Cartanya and Trey “Tre” Holla), and the chorus features vocals by rapper Lil Jon.
The music video for the song was filmed in Atlanta, Georgia, at 1260 Custer Avenue during August 26.
The first single of Radioactive was supposed to be “Gangsta of Love” which featured outro vocals by Cyhi Da Prynce and production from Jim Jonsin, but was not officially released by Yelawolf because it was leaked. On July 7, Yelawolf announced that the song would not make the final cut on the album.
Lyrics for Yelawolf feat. Lil Jon – Hard White (Up In The Club)
It’s your boy Lil Jon, got my partner Yelawolf with me
(yeah) what’s up Yela
You know it’s time to crank the club up again.[Verse 1:]
Yea, yea you ain’t gotta lay down your back to know you already f-cked up.
Letting me in the motherf-cking game is like letting me drunk drive in your truck.
When yelawolf arrived in this club
I already had 5 in my cup, I done took another hit
I done ran into a b-tch that’s looking lifeless and stuck,
baby what’s wrong with you now
what you ain’t happy with red bottoms,
mad cause I’m in VIP with a f-cking jack bottleWith Tom, Dick, and Harry; but I got up in this b-tch with Tank Top
’cause I spit so very. Dumb Quick and Scary.
That’s why they so quick to compare me
But f-ck the critics, with a spike d-ck, when it can fit barely.
They probably think I’m a limp biscuit that spits jelly.
But I put them in the woods, I’m a redneck.
I’m a hick tell me, go ahead. (yeah!)
What the f-ck does it matter to me, ’cause after me they’ll only be wannabe’s
and mostly ain’t never gonna be’s.
Yea, in this forest I’m a lonely tree
my limbs are covered in tattoos, and my roots they run deep I’m..[Hook:]
Two bottle shawty, two bitches waiting, two tens, that’s a win, win situation
Happy Birthday, I’m feeling brand new
Drinks on me, for me not you.[Chorus:]
Up in the club, don’t give a f-ck, up in the club
Don’t give a f-ck, up in the club,
Don’t give a f-ck, up in the club
Still don’t give a f-ck.[Verse 2:]
I don’t know what to say after that first verse
I mean like damn I just killed it
What the f-ck am I supposed to do with this cow
I done already milked it.
Smoke another cigarette unfiltered,
let go of anything that I’m feeling.
They done broke me down so many times before that I’m no longer rapping I’m building
with one brick, two brick, three brick, four
Underneath the steps of my single wide door.Raised by them dope boys so I know how them thangs look
Thanks for the recipe rest in peace Wayne Bush.
I don’t cut my sh-t.
I don’t break it down for you motherf-ckers out there waiting around for some rap savior,
you better look up at what it is that you’re facing now,
cuz Jesus drives rides a Harley, the devil wears Prada,
if God was one of us, he’d probably drink Vodka.
I still kick at the party when I get rich, ’cause rich or broke, I’m still as dope.
The realist ain’t as real as this.
Dead or alive I put a stamp in this b-tch
You’ll never see rock n’ roll do hip hop like I did I’m[Hook:]
Two bottle shawty, two bitches waiting
Two tens that’s a win, win situation.
Happy Birthday, I’m feeling brand new
Drinks on me, for me, not you.[Chorus:]
Up in the club, don’t give a f-ck, up in the club
Don’t give a f-ck, up in the club,
Don’t give a f-ck, up in the club
Still don’t give a f-ck.It’s Ghet-O-Vision, Shady, Happy Birthday, Alabama!
Still don’t give a f-ck, naw
Your boy Lil Jon, you know we rep the south!Up in the club, don’t give a f-ck!
Up in the club don’t give a f-ck!
I ain’t in the building I own the building b-tch!!!
