STOP SNITCHING Lyrics
[Intro]
Boy, this how rich n!ggas livin', everything cost too much
Boy, this how rich n!ggas livin’, everything cost too much
[Chorus]
Drop-top Benz with all my pendants
Middle finger up, never pointin' with my index
'Bout to buy a stop sign shirt to stop the snitchin’
Won't drop a dime, do my time, standin' on the business (Uh, yeah, boy), uh
[Verse 1]
Everything cost too much (It cost)
My n!ggas, we ball too much (We ball)
These neighbors, they saw too much (They saw)
Quit snitchin', they call too much (They callin')
Look, these b!tches, they talk too much like such-and-such (Uh-huh)
Real n!ggas, they keep in touch (Uh-huh)
Lil' n!gga think he can't be touched (Uh-uh)
Lil' homie from around the way
Got locked up like the othеr day (Right)
Quiet type, almost sold his life
All a suddеn got somethin’ to say
Caught a case and did a deal with Satan
Got extorted, he was givin’ payments
Now he in the office givin' statements (Shh)
Plus some people got him on the tape (Ooh)
Did some shit, then he told (Boy)
Did a bid, now he grown (Boy)
Came home, he a clone (Boy)
Now it’s like I don't even know (Boy)
Not a visit, not a call (Boy)
The feds were listenin' all along (Boy)
Self-snitchin' on a song (Boy)
They was tappin’ on his phone (What?)
These days, these n!ggas from a different school
These days, these young n!ggas make snitchin' cool
Youngins play by different rules, look, uh
I'm from where n!ggas talk and get physical
N!ggas shoot and get critical
When n!ggas die, it get biblical
YGs to OGs, stay the f*ck up off the interviews
You was just on Say Cheese, talkin' like interrogation room
RICOs for the whole team (Yeah), you was throwin' up the big B's
Your partner do the big C's, now you servin' fifteen
[Refrain]
Gucci jeans with the stones
Like the old Jim Jones (Uh)
Been did Rick, did Chrome (Yeah)
We was so thin back then, just skin and bones (Uh)
Look how much we grown (Yeah)
We done been through it all (All)
To the end from the start, let's go (Oohwee)
[Verse 2]
These n!ggas talkin' too much
He get to tellin' when my people sellin', now we gotta slide in the truck (Uh-huh)
He got the package, it's jumpin', it's brackin', the junkies is buyin' it up (Okay)
Customers linin' it up, we blowin' 'za in the tux' (Oohwee)
Your baby daddy sit down when he p!ss, most of these rappers is b!tch-made
All up in Harlem, Colombian b!tch, under her tongue, a big blade
How could you snitch on your brother when that was the person that's keepin' your rent paid?
Lemonade Cadillac, big laid, I bought the V on Wednesday
Rrr, too many horses in here
Sleepin' with women from Texas to London, it's too many choices in here
She got two million for leavin' her husband, I got a divorce in my ear (My ear)
Just yesterday, fell asleep in the 'Rari, my b!tch got a Porsche in the rear, for real
Buddy, your fabric is softener (What?)
N!ggas'll lie to they mama and daddy, but go tell the truth to an officer
Don't be surprised when you coughin' up
Flip on the splatt, then we offin' him
He tried to move out the country, I don't even think they like rats in Yuskavia
Stay away from the streets 'cause it's mafias
[Chorus]
Drop-top Benz with all my pendants
Middle finger up, never pointin' with my index
'Bout to buy a stop sign shirt to stop the snitchin'
Won't drop a dime, do my time, standin' on the business (Uh, yeah, boy), uh
[Refrain]
Gucci jeans with the stones
Like the old Jim Jones (Uh)
Been did Rick, did Chrome (Yeah)
We was so thin back then, just skin and bones (Uh)
Look how much we grown (Yeah)
We done been through it all (All)
To the end from the start, let's go

STOP SNITCHING Song Meaning [A$AP Rocky]
Emerging mid-January 2026, "STOP SNITCHING" stands as one of the raw, gritty cuts on A$AP Rocky’s long-awaited fourth studio album, "Don’t Be Dumb", his first major project in nearly eight years. The track features Houston’s Sauce Walka, marrying Rocky’s New York cool with Southern street energy. On a record that reflects both artistic maturation and a reconnection with the visceral roots of hip-hop, this song channels frustration with betrayal, questions of authenticity, and the unresolved tensions between old school codes and a new generation’s impulses. "Don’t Be Dumb" underscores Rocky’s evolution, from fashion and film to fatherhood and lived experience, and this track anchors the album’s more confrontational side.
Song Meaning:
From the outset, the song juxtaposes material success with a deeper moral economy rooted in loyalty. The speakers celebrate wealth and status but quickly pivot to criticism of those who break the informal codes of the street. Snitching, in hip-hop culture, carries real consequences beyond legal outcomes, it punctures trust and upends the shared understanding that binds communities tested by systemic pressures and police scrutiny. This critique is placed not in abstraction but against lived narratives of friends and acquaintances who have returned from incarceration changed, estranged from the codes that once defined them.
As the verses unfold, Rocky and his collaborator shift between swagger and moral outrage. The presence of luxury cars and designer threads underscores success, while repeated references to betrayal frame the emotional stakes of this success. In a genre where reputation is currency, the refusal to cooperate becomes an act of self-preservation as much as a statement of principle. By situating respect and credibility above legal cooperation, the song reflects an enduring hip-hop ethos while also wrestling with its place in a modern context where younger artists may approach these unwritten rules differently.
Midway through the track, there’s a palpable sense of generational tension. Rocky positions himself as someone shaped by an earlier era’s codes, where confrontation was physical and silence was intrinsic to survival, contrasting that with today’s new wave, where social media, interviews and public visibility sometimes replace discretion. The urgency in his delivery is not merely confrontational; it reflects concern over the erosion of shared principles that once governed survival, respect, and accountability.
Sauce Walka’s verse deepens the song’s texture by bringing Southern street hip-hop sensibilities into the mix. His presence reinforces that the themes explored are not confined to one city or scene but resonate across regions where credibility and lived experience still matter. The collaboration strengthens the message by showing that loyalty, betrayal, and survival are universal narratives within rap culture.
Emotional Core and Themes:
At its heart, "STOP SNITCHING" channels frustration, defiance, and a longing for older values within an evolving hip-hop landscape. The emotional weight does not come solely from bravado, but from the tension between success and sacrifice, loyalty and survival, and the personal cost of broken trust. The intensity of the record reflects a desire to preserve identity and integrity in an environment where values are constantly tested.
Connection With Listeners:
Listeners grounded in hip-hop culture will recognize "STOP SNITCHING" as part of a long-standing conversation about silence, loyalty, and accountability. These themes are deeply rooted in the genre’s history and shaped by broader social realities, including distrust of institutions and the need for self-preservation. For fans of A$AP Rocky, the track reinforces that despite years away from solo releases, his voice remains connected to the core realities that shaped his artistry.
Conclusion:
"STOP SNITCHING" resonates because it balances raw emotion with cultural reflection. Rather than offering a simplistic stance, the song explores the complex consequences of betrayal, survival, and loyalty in a world that no longer operates by the same rules. By bridging generational perspectives and regional influences, the track stands as a powerful reminder that hip-hop continues to grapple with questions of integrity, identity, and responsibility, both within the music and beyond it.
