1. Kendrick Lamar – "m.A.A.d city"
Lyric: "Compton, Compton, ain't no city quite like mine."
Mumbled Interpretation: Kendrick’s delivery slurs “ain’t no” in a way that can sound like “ain’t known,” hinting that Compton is misunderstood or underappreciated despite its reputation.
2. Frank Ocean – "Nights"
Lyric: "Did you call me from a seance? You are from a past life."
Mumbled Interpretation: “Seance” is delivered with a soft “s,” almost sounding like “sayin’,” playing on the idea of someone calling from the past, like resurrecting old emotions or issues.
3. Drake – "The Ride"
Lyric: "My latest girl’s from Houston, my new girl is from Georgia."
Mumbled Interpretation: He mumbles “new” so it sounds like “knew,” suggesting familiarity or past connections, indicating the cyclical nature of his relationships.
4. Childish Gambino – "3005"
Lyric: "No matter what you say or what you do / When I’m alone, I’d rather be with you."
Mumbled Interpretation: The way he slurs “alone” can sound like “a loan,” adding a layer where he may feel like he’s investing time or energy into relationships but getting nothing in return.
5. Future – "Mask Off"
Lyric: "Percocets, molly, Percocets."
Mumbled Interpretation: Future’s mumbled delivery makes “Percocets” sound like “purpose set,” playing on how his life is driven or defined by these substances.
6. Eminem – "Lose Yourself"
Lyric: "There’s vomit on his sweater already, mom’s spaghetti."
Mumbled Interpretation: The rapid delivery can make “mom’s spaghetti” sound like “mom’s upset-y,” implying emotional tension or family issues, beyond the literal meaning.
7. Tyler, The Creator – "Yonkers"
Lyric: "I'm a f***ing walking paradox."
Mumbled Interpretation: His delivery makes “paradox” sound like “pair of Docs,” referring both to his contradictory personality and a double entendre on wearing Doc Martens shoes.
8. J. Cole – "G.O.M.D."
Lyric: "Don't nobody care 'bout you."
Mumbled Interpretation: He mumbles “care ‘bout you” so it sounds like “carried you,” suggesting that people only care when they're benefiting or carrying someone’s burden.
9. Lil Wayne – "6 Foot 7 Foot"
Lyric: "Real G's move in silence like lasagna."
Mumbled Interpretation: The “G” in “lasagna” is silent, but Wayne’s playful delivery makes it sound almost audible, creating a pun on both the letter “G” and the quiet movements of “real Gs” (gangsters).
10. Billie Eilish – "Bury a Friend"
Lyric: "What do you want from me? Why don’t you run from me?"
Mumbled Interpretation: The way she mumbles “run” and “from” can make it sound like “wrong for me,” suggesting self-destructive relationships or chasing what’s not good for her.
