The Braggadocious Beat of 'Ice Attack': Metro Boomin's Ode to Success and Excess

Metro Boomin's 'Ice Attack (feat. Future)' is a song that delves into the themes of wealth, success, and the lifestyle that comes with it. The lyrics are a testament to Metro Boomin's rise in the music industry and the opulence that he has achieved. The song is split into two parts, with each section highlighting different aspects of his luxurious life and the attitude that accompanies his newfound status.

In the first part of the song, Metro Boomin raps about his extravagant purchases, from jewelry to properties in various cities, indicating a life of excess and the ability to afford anything he desires. The mention of 'Actavis' refers to a brand of prescription cough syrup that is often used recreationally in the hip-hop community. The lyrics also touch on his relentless work ethic, having hustled since he was a kid, and his success in the music industry, which has allowed him to 'finesse' his way to a Richard Mille watch, a symbol of extreme wealth. The line 'I got money, but ain't got time, these hoes gettin' too obsessed' suggests that despite his wealth, he struggles with the downsides of fame, such as dealing with people who are only interested in him for his money.

The second part of the song continues to emphasize Metro Boomin's wealth and success, but also introduces a sense of distrust and the darker side of the lifestyle. He compares others to 'rats', implying deceit and betrayal in the industry. The repeated lines about being a millionaire and having 'cheese' (slang for money) reinforce his financial status. The song also touches on themes of violence and the street life, with references to 'murder zone' and 'Gucci'd down in the trap with the K up,' indicating that despite his success, he is still connected to his roots and the harsh realities of the environment he came from.
