A lot of rappers still raps about Lexus. Its funny that i was listening to the wale cd again and i heard this part:

Wale: Beautiful Bliss ft. J.Cole (best song on the album btw)
Another day up in my ES
Wish it was an LS
But elastic is my wallet **** it


I had a nice smile when i heard that rhyme.

Wale is a new rapper, who sold basically NO records in his opening week 25k.. But he is on tour with Jay Z right now, so some people think he will be pretty good

? Why are you in this thread, trying to tell us Lexus isn't mentioned when they continue to be. Now you are saying the rapper is irrelevant....

Wale is a new guy...he's known for his sneaker game as well.....

Nice list from 2003...

I hardly listen to new music and rap..mainly play old stuff...however I hear it all the time and Lexus is more relevant than ever.

Kanye West on Rick Ross "Maybach Music"
Kanye West
Martin luetta king jr startin all that stuntin is gonna ruin ya
b i was a lie he probaly had a two tone with the grey poupon anything yay poupon
we'll explode cause im am the **** and this is my commode uh oh there they go
talkin about how ya boy clothes extra tight i just remember that my limelight extra bright
I hit the strip club and girls get extra hype, you hit the stip club and girls turn extra dyke
we know who not gettin no sex tonite and a lap dance will probaly be a blessing right. so all the **** you talking
dead, coffin light the weed coughin new crib loughtin where it's at austin where's that texas what's in front benzes what else lexus well who's maybach is this mr. westses


Baby on "Hell Yeah" remix
"See we fresh with Air Ones, Lexus and big drums"

"Get the dough"

"Pop up in the Lexus with the mink of the floor"
Outkast
"Decatur Psalm"
(feat. Cool Breeze, Big Gipp)

[Verse One: Cool Breeze]

I call da crib they say "Breeze you ain't know?"
I say "What?"
"Big Time got popped in his Benzo!"
I said "Damn man, I'm riding in his Lexus
I'm bout to dump this *****'s **** in New Dimensions
Get to the crib so I can call Big Slate up
And tell em da money man done slipped and got his throat cut
And everything that we took from the warehouse
I heard somebody talkin 'bout it at the White House
Man I thought you said that this job was for me and you
I ain't know that Bill Clampett wanted some too
You tell his folks that I'm sorry bout that Lexus
I'm 'bout to dip and see my sister up in... naaah!
Can't even tell you where I put my extra playa card
Cause them Red Dog police know we homeboys
Just tell everybody who us a dime
It's the Great Hoe Round Up Yo' Money time
I got to HAVE MINE, then I'm OUTTA HERE
Take a loss, come back up just like Coco Grier
Ain't got to worry bout yo' potnah gettin caught like a lame
It won't be over til that big girl from Decatur sang"

Bone thugs
Ridin' the city streets

Just ridin', ridin'...
Ridin' the city streets in a black benz lexus
Where we be feelin' the beat, tuckin' the piece
I'm just slidin', slidin'
Feelin' my heat, I'm feelin' you, you feelin' me

Notorious B I G - Young G's

Damn it feel good to see people up on it
Flipped two keys in two weeks and didn't flaunt it
My brain is haunted, with mean dreams
GS's with BB's on it, supreme schemes, to get Richer
than Richie,

Default What song's can you think of that talk about Lexus?

So recently I heard a couple of song's that talk about Lexus car's. Off the top of my head, two song's come to mind. Jay-Z's "Empire State of Mind" and "On To the Next One". The lyrics are "Came in Range, hopped out the Lexus every year since i’ve bin on that next sh-t traded in the gold for the platinum rolex’s Now a n-gga wrist match the status of my records". The other is "Cruising down 8th street Off-white Lexus Driving so slow but BK, it's from Texas".

What song's have you heard of that talk about Lexus?

We have a huge thread on this somewhere as there are way to many songs to name.
