Ludacris, Money Maker | Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥

In the 15^th edition of Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥 (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind “Money Maker” by Ludacris. 

“Let me give you some swimming lessons on the penis 🍆 / Backstroke, breaststroke, stroke of a genius!”  Ah, bring on Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥! Wait – it is not usually hot at midnight! Well, it is steaming hot 🥵 at midnight when it comes to this naughty, innuendo and sex-laden column featuring songs intended for nighttime. Yeah, we are talking about that after dark, bedroom boom $hi†, ya dig? These unapologetic records often raises both eyebrows and temperature alike. Woo! In the 15^th edition of Midnight Heat (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind, 🎵 “Money Maker” by 🎙 Ludacris.  

“Shake your money maker like somebody’s ‘bout to pay ya / I see you on my radar, don’t you act like you’re afraid of shit.” Woo! Booty anthems never get old, particularly in hip-hop/rap music. Back in the mid-aughts, when 🎙 Ludacris was on fire 🔥, he dropped a sensational booty-shaking anthem with 🎵 “Money Maker”. “Money Maker” was produced by 🎛 The Neptunes – Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo – and Williams also appears as a featured artist.  He and Luda collaborate on the hook, a clear catalyst for “Money Maker” reaching no. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, where it remained for two weeks.  Furthermore, Ludacris took home the 🏆 Grammy for Best Rap Song, while his album, 💿 Release Therapy (2006) went on to win Best Rap Album.

Obviously, depth is NOT his modus operandi, nor would we expect the ludicrous rapper to deliver depth on a stripper cut: “It took your momma nine months to make ya / Might as well shake what your momma gave ya…” 🍑 Da-yum. Oh, and for good measure, how about that sex, per Luda: “Don’t forget about this feeling that I am making you get / And all the calories you burn from me making you sweat / The mile-high points you earn when we taking my jet / And how everywhere you turn I’ll be making you wet cause you can.” Aw, sugar honey iced tea! Luda clearly isn’t lying when he raps, “You the center of attention that is distracting the squad / Cause everybody in the campus like – OH MY GOD!”
