Ludacris, Splash Waterfalls | Midnight Heat

In the 22^nd edition of Midnight Heat (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind “Splash Waterfalls” by Ludacris.

“Oh! Oh! Oh! Say It (make love to me) / Oh! Oh! Oh! What? (Fck me).” 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 22^nd edition of Midnight Heat (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind, “Splash Waterfalls” by Ludacris. 

“They want it nice and slow, kiss ‘em from head to toe / Relax and let it go – say it (make love to me),” Ludacris raps in the first verse of his freaky hit single, “Splash Waterfalls”. Ooh-wee, child! “Splash Waterfalls,” a former top-10 hit (no. 6) on the Billboard Hot 100, graces his 2003 critically-acclaimed album, Chicken – N – Beer. He continues spitting, “They want it now and fast, grabbin’ and smackin’ ass / You gotta make it last – what? (fck, me!).” Throughout this colorful rap record, Ludacris balances refined, romantic vibes (“make love to me”), and a freakier, more unapologetic ones (“fck me”).  Of course, with a Ludacris song, refined is relative.

The sound of “Splash Waterfalls” (production by Icedrake), is one of many selling points. Honestly, it sounds sexual, regardless of the so-called balance between love and straight up, passionate sex. Of course, Ludacris’ hardcore sex bars are the most interesting… explicit…eyebrow-raising… horny – you get the picture. Any time that “scratches on your back” and “she’s on your sack and balls / You call her Jabberjaws” is involved, it is NSFW.  Furthermore, how is Ludacris going to compare her mouth to an animated shark ? Focusing mostly on the ‘F Me’ moments sung by Sandy Coffee, The Grammy-winning rapper spits about driving stick, “Do it standin’ up,” and “ropes and handcuffs.” Jesus! Indeed, the Midnight Heat is on!
