Toot It Up Lyrics – Pardison Fontaine, Cardi B

Toot It Up Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
The intro is just a way to hype up the song. “This is fire” suggests that the track is about to be exciting and energetic. “Toot, toot” is a fun sound that ties into the song’s theme of dancing and twerking. It sets the mood for a high-energy, club-style vibe.

[Chorus]
The chorus is all about dancing, having fun, and showing off confidence. When they say “shake it to the east, shake it to the west,” they’re talking about moving your body, likely twerking. The line about “diamonds and baguettes” means that if someone impresses them, they might spoil them with expensive jewelry. “Toot, toot that ass up” is just a catchy way of encouraging twerking. Cardi B also brings in a more provocative element, talking about her s*xuality and how she grabs attention online with her posts. The whole chorus is about flaunting what you have, having fun, and embracing a flashy, confident lifestyle.

[Verse 1 (Pardison Fontaine)]
Pardison starts by talking about meeting at a hotel (Ramada) and being focused on money. He mentions speaking Spanish and French, referencing his international style, and flexes his expensive Balenciaga fashion. He brags about his diamonds and how he could have spent that money on a gun instead, emphasizing his toughness. Calling himself a sniper means he’s a threat, even to people’s girlfriends. He continues showing off his wealth, saying his closet is so big it feels like a hallway, and that he could throw his birthday party in a huge stadium (Barclay Center). He keeps flexing, talking about Rolex watches, expensive women, and how money keeps his lifestyle exciting. The verse ends with him reminding everyone that he’s been successful and confident since the late ’90s.

[Chorus]
The chorus repeats, reinforcing the theme of twerking, confidence, and showing off success. The focus is still on dancing, having fun, and getting rewarded for it. Cardi B again adds an element of owning her s*xuality and getting attention online, keeping up the energy of the song.

[Verse 2 (Cardi B)]
Cardi B jumps in, keeping up the confidence and attitude. She starts by saying she’s going to dance and show off, and if someone is a successful athlete, she’s interested in them. She compares herself to ice cream, saying men find her irresistible. The reference to “Uncle Luke” is about the Miami rapper known for party music and twerking anthems. Then, she brags about making people pay attention and showing what a real “dime” (a perfect 10) looks like. She makes it clear that no woman can challenge her and that she doesn’t entertain broke men. She also mentions liking Black men and compares her fly lifestyle to Jet Li, the action star. Finally, she calls out the industry for not giving her enough credit, saying other female artists wouldn’t be successful without her.

[Chorus]
The song ends by bringing back the chorus, repeating the same themes of dancing, flexing wealth, and confidence. It wraps up with the same high-energy, party-ready vibe, keeping the momentum strong until the end.
