Love the money (Dexta Daps)

So Dexta Daps got really popular after his 7eleven song - the one in which he wanted to be  her 11th boyfriend. Now he has a song called 'Love the money'. So in 'love the money' he says the lady knew he had a girlfriend and he knew she had her man, but now he's upset because she didn't love him. Like seriously?? Really?

One interpretation is that the two persons became each others' lovers knowing that they were both attached to other persons. They decided to pursue a relationship on the side, then the woman decided to change the rules of the game. Now she threatens to tell the man's spouse about their illicit relationship as a way to blackmail him into giving her more money. So he's not hurt because she doesn't love him. He's hurt because she wants to blackmail him into giving her more money for keeping his cheating a secret.

What I don't get however, is why he is bringing love into it. There was no love in the beginning and there is no love at the end. It seems maybe he started catching feelings for her along the way and now he's upset that she didn't catch the same train to 'pointless land'.

Anyways, have a listen to the song, after all, Dexta Daps, controversial as he may be, is one of Jamaica's hottest dancehall artistes at the moment. The translated lyrics are provided below.

Jamaican Patois (Volume 1 Issue 2)

SAKURAIRO LANGUAGE SERIES

Oral Dialect or Written Language?

I mentioned in Issue 1 that Jamaican Patois is a dialect of the English Language and not a separate language. 

I also mentioned that some people were of a different opinion. One of those persons is a widely known Jamaican and University Lecturer, Miss Carolyn Cooper. 

Carolyn Cooper writes a blog, called Jamaica Woman Tongue, in which she uses Standard English, and two forms of Jamaican Patois phonetic styles. In reality, most Jamaicans do not intentionally write Patois because it is a spoken dialect. https://carolynjoycooper.wordpress.com/
