POP IT OFF Lyrics – Aitch

POP IT OFF Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1: Aitch]
Aitch starts by showing off his wealth, saying he’s got a super expensive car that he barely even uses. He’s still out there confidently pulling up and impressing women, showing he’s got game and status. He hints that his lifestyle involves things too wild or risky for TV. No matter where he goes in the world, people recognize him, so he’s reached a popstar level of fame. But that fame comes with pressure—he has to watch what he says so it doesn’t mess things up for him. His friend is taking illegal money and cleaning it up to make it look legit. Back in the day, he was hustling, making small deals. Now he owns property worth millions and he’s not even 25 yet. While he keeps his watches plain, he splurges on flashy diamonds for his car. He warns that if someone tries to mess with him in the club, his younger crew is ready to react violently. He mentions a girl doing drügs at his place and kicks her out when she crosses a line, quickly replacing her with another. He’s been making serious money and spending it freely. Any drama he’s had, he’s dealt with and moved on. When he’s in his hometown Manchester, he’s in Moston; in London, he chills in the West. He compares dealing with models to dominating the rap scene—he’s coming hard and aiming to win.

[Chorus: Aitch]
This hook plays off the phrase “pop it off,” which has a few layers. It could mean popping bottles at a party, starting something wild, or even using a weapon. He talks about partying, hooking up, and being bold and fearless. He dares others who act tough to actually back it up. Whenever he shows up on the streets, he shuts things down—basically saying his presence is felt. And even after a casual fling, the girl misses him the moment he leaves. It’s all about flexing confidence and dominance.

[Verse 2: Kenzo Str8Drop]
Kenzo kicks things off by saying he’s got a fancy Rolex watch, but he’s not trying to show off or draw heat. Instead, he’s out there doing real street business—he puts stacks of cash in a cheap supermarket bag and has someone drop it off, showing how he moves money low-key. He’s not into club dancing, but he moves skillfully in the drug game (hence the “Milly Rock in pots”). He mentions spending 50 grand on a watch, joking it’s like losing a brick of drügs money-wise. There’s a girl trying to hang with him, while he’s also staying alert and watching out. He’s done a lot of shady stuff, but now he’s trying to avoid chasing people down like before. He dropped cash on a Beretta (gun), and someone else tossed in something extra. He calls himself “Mr. Str8Drop,” saying he moves product quickly and efficiently. He won’t ride in any car unless it sounds powerful and aggressive. He drives luxury cars that make it look like he’s pushing big weight (selling drügs). He remembers the first time his friend saw a brick of drügs—it was a big moment. Back then, cops would raid his grandmother’s house while he was staying there, caught up in street life. He still sells when things look risky. He throws shade at someone pretending to be a trapper, saying he’s the real deal—a drug dealer who happens to rap, not the other way around. He doesn’t need VIP tables in clubs—he’s got women partying in run-down flats, showing his raw, street-level lifestyle.

[Chorus: Aitch]
Once again, Aitch brings the same energy—drinking, hooking up, staying fearless, and always being the center of attention. He dares anyone who talks tough to actually act on it. When he’s around, he controls the vibe of the street. And he throws in that bit of cockiness again, saying girls miss him the second he’s gone. The hook keeps the bold, no-nonsense attitude going strong.
