It was the fastest song I've ever written because it was something that I really, really wanted to get out, and it was so fluid. But "NYC Bitche$" is funny, I wrote that song in 15 minutes. I imagined that, and from there you just do it. And that's how I thought of the concept for the song, if your power would be that you just queef and you blow people away, literally - they fly away. Did you see X-Men? In X-Men there's a scene where they're starting to realize the powers they have. came to me in a mind fart, that was literally a mind fart. How do you even come up with the idea for a song about queefing?Īwkwafina: I like to make songs that are based on concepts. And now, with new songs under her belt, along with her older material, she's readying to release her first official album, Yellow Ranger. "Yo my vag Harvard Law School / Yo vag Apex Technical."Įarlier this year she turned heads with "NYC Bitche$," in which she hilariously - and rightfully - called out the changes to her hometown: "New York City, bitch / That's where I come from / Not where I moved to / On mom and dad's trust fund." The track garnered her a lot of attention on the internet, beyond just New York. And like her other songs, the track features biting lines that nod to her hometown, like, "I queef out the chorus of 'Don't Stop Believing' so I could hit the L while all these white girls singing / Queef on the B train, queef on the E train / Chillin' at Nassau, waiting for the G train / Ninety minutes still waiting for the G train."Īwkwafina - real name Nora Lum - first came on the scene last year with " My Vag," her response to party rapper Mickey Avalon's song " My Dick," in which she compared her vagina to everything from an operatic ballad to a Range Rover to Harvard Law School.
