Jedi Master Danno (Red Bull 64 Bars) (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
It’s a quick shoutout to the project, the artist, and DJ Craim, setting the stage.

[Verse]
Here Danno is declaring that he’s outside of regular competition, not following anyone else, and refusing to be impressed by the so-called best around him. He wants to separate himself from others by showing he’s on another level, comparing himself to champions and performers, but also mocking how fake some of them are. He admits to drowning himself at times with drinking, but before he gives in, he wishes misfortune on his rivals, taking away their respect and names. His rhymes are sharp, but he doesn’t care if they land in the trash because he’s more focused on breaking rules and flipping expectations.

He paints himself like a ghost, someone who can be mistaken for either a genius or a fool, but he likes being unpredictable. He asks for the look of a villain, not a hero, showing he doesn’t want to play the “good guy” role. With sneakers, a hat, and a cape, he’s almost like a comic book anti-hero, ready to ruin moments on purpose, embracing chaos. Instead of following the classics, he prefers unorthodox influences, even mentioning El-P over Nas to show his taste for the unconventional. He positions himself as a giant MC, someone powerful who can’t be ignored, like a mastodon carrying enormous weight.

The imagery turns darker when he talks about having bars like knives, cutting deep, leaving holes in the ground, and being part of a cursed circle. He challenges others to face him at the end of summer, as if waiting for a showdown. He contrasts his raw, rough style with polished, shallow performances, comparing himself to Sid Vicious bringing rebellion back to the streets. His rap is aggressive and relentless, compared to a machine gun firing nonstop. Even if he keeps much of his pain locked inside, his flow still bursts out with intensity.

[Interlude]
This part slows down with a reflective tone. Life’s struggles are brushed off lightly as “nothing,” but the tired face shows the cost. The voice sings through exhaustion, trying to rise above illusions and fake charmers, keeping it raw and real.

[Verse 2]
Danno starts by saying he’ll give others flowers but keep the pain for himself, showing both generosity and burden. On stage, he’s fierce, comparing himself to skater Tony Alva who broke rules in pools, while claiming mastery of hip-hop’s core elements. His rhymes are so strong they silence everyone, especially in a world falling into chaos. He likens himself to Fela Kuti, waking the dead with music, and to DJ Premier, standing as number one in delivering raw beats. Even without drums, his presence brings heavy drama.

He calls himself an “extinct poet” lost in limbo, yet still dangerous like fighters Kimbo Slice or a b0mb ready to explode. He warns that many rappers and trappers around are puppets, but he’s the only real master, shutting down fake performances like a Muppet Show. He links himself to Italian rap heritage with Colle der Fomento, keeping tradition alive while also breaking barriers.

He rejects mainstream “heroes” like Rambo or Tex, refusing clichés, and instead cracks open another beer, showing his down-to-earth attitude. Referencing Kurtis Blow, he highlights his originality by refusing to copy while reworking breaks. Then he points out the dangerous reality of kids pretending to be gangsters, flaunting knives and jewelry, while mixing in commentary on shallow fashion trends. He raises his middle finger in rebellion, blasting reggae pioneer Lee Scratch Perry in his headphones, ending the verse with defiance and independence.
