The Dual Pursuit: Love and Wealth in 'BOTH' by Tiësto, BIA, and 21 Savage

In 'BOTH,' Tiësto collaborates with BIA and 21 Savage to deliver a powerful anthem that explores the desire for both love and financial success. The song's central theme revolves around the refusal to choose between emotional fulfillment and material wealth, asserting that both are essential for a complete and satisfying life. The repetitive chorus, 'Don't you tell me that it's love or money, I want both,' emphasizes this dual pursuit, making it clear that the artists are unwilling to compromise on either front.

BIA's verse delves into the specifics of this duality, highlighting her journey from modest beginnings to a life of luxury. She speaks of her financial independence and the importance of maintaining both love and wealth. Lines like 'I like my money, I like your money' and 'Why would I choose when you know I got options?' underscore her determination to have it all. BIA's confident delivery and assertive lyrics reflect a modern, empowered perspective on balancing personal and financial aspirations.

21 Savage's contribution further reinforces the theme, with his characteristic blend of braggadocio and introspection. He recounts his rise from flying coach to first class and his ability to afford both a Lamborghini and a Ferrari, symbolizing his success. His verse also touches on the importance of love and relationships, as seen in lines like 'I want love and dollars' and 'Couldn't pick a friend 'cause they all fine.' This duality is a recurring motif in his music, reflecting his real-life experiences and aspirations.

Overall, 'BOTH' is a celebration of ambition and the refusal to settle for less. It resonates with listeners who aspire to achieve both emotional and financial success, encapsulating the modern ethos of having it all.
