NCAA (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro: Clarent & Turbo G]
He’s asking someone to stop moving so he can hear clearly. Then he hypes up his crew, “The City Ballers.”

[Verse 1]
He’s being told to take off his chains because they’re making noise — the kind of noise that shows he’s got money. He sees himself as a rebel, someone rough but also creative, and he’s always ready to defend himself. The maraca part seems playful or maybe a code, and he moves with confidence. He says he’s out there hustling, specifically in New Jersey, and keeps a weapon tucked under his jersey for safety or power.

[Chorus]
He’s saying that women are drawn to men with status like him — they want the party life with drügs and s*x, and he acts naturally in that scene. In Puerto Rico, people don’t really support his music, and he’s not into clubbing anymore. Someone thinks he’s got mental issues, but he flips it and calls them crazy. He’s living big — smoking with a view of the Empire State, riding luxury cars in Miami and New York. He laughs at rules and singerity, while his crew — likened to NCAA-level players — are armed and loyal.

[Post-Chorus]
He’s basically saying, don’t come at him like you’re better unless you’re wearing expensive stuff like a Philipp Plein watch. He’s brushing off weak energy.

[Verse 2]
He’s shouting out his locked-up friends, showing loyalty. He lives with weapons nearby and stacks of money. His taste in watches goes from Cartier to Rolex to even pricier pieces. He warns a friend that someone’s playing him. A girl with no boyfriend just wants attention, but he’s not falling for it. He says he’s a true legend in his city, like Roberto Clemente — respected and iconic.

[Bridge]
Women try to get his attention now, but he’s not sticking around after getting what he wants. He’s ready to handle threats fast and won’t tolerate talk about violence unless someone’s ready to back it up.

[Chorus]
Again, he points out how women chase him for the lifestyle — the drügs, the s*x — and he handles it all without trying. In Puerto Rico, he feels underappreciated musically and isn’t interested in the usual nightlife anymore. Others question his sanity, but he throws it back at them. He lights up a black (cigar or cigarette) and enjoys luxury views and rides. His crew mocks the law and plays by their own rules — strong, loyal, and ready like athletes in the NCAA.

[Post-Chorus]
He repeats his flex — if you’re not wearing designer watches like Plein, don’t even joke around with him. It’s a message to not waste his time unless you’re on his level.

[Verse 3]
He’s not into fake street talk — he’s focused on making money. He reflects on losing his close friend Peluche, which really changed him. He had gone to buy something simple, but it cost him someone important. He flexes again, saying his jewelry is so valuable it’s like wearing a house. He’s looking for girls but has high standards — he might like a face, but if the body’s off, he’s not interested.

[Outro]
He wraps up by shouting out his crew again — “The City Ballers” — and doubles down on the idea that everything they do is big, bold, and all about the money. The final lines give it a gunfire-style sound effect, underlining the street energy.
