I'm rollin' in a nine-oh van. california, that's my plan
Got memories mixalot left in limbo, first stop sacremento
Here we go, hit a club called bentleys
Want a skirt to git wit' me, hit me
There's a girl with a back like a cadillac
I walked up and got pushed back
Her boyfriend tell her i'm a play-a
Dropped salt on a shit rhyme say-
My reputation offends this man
Next day hit williamland park
Creepin' like a shark
Spot a bad freak and i swoop like a hawk
"what up?", "howya like to roll wit' a champ?"
"please! all ya'll rappers is tramps"
My reputation is stoppin' my mission
Every freak in sac is dissin'
Back on the four lane freeway
Next stop, the two-one-three, l.a.
The two-one-three is rough
But the mixalot game is tough
Spot a young girl and i start that gamin'
Baby girl asks what set am i claimin'
"just cuz i rap, i gotta be in gang?"
It ain't a black thang, it's a rap thang
Censorship is sweepin' the nation
Messin' up a rap stars reputation
A rappers reputation, that's what i got
So i'm finished with the two-one-three
I knock, baby, but it's time to leave
Two days on the hard rock, boys is cruisin'
Interstate ten, straight to houston
They tell me 'bout the girls in the fifth ward
You know the boys must score
So we hit a fly club called guchies
Lookin' for the skirts with the largest booties
Girlies in the club wasn't takin' no shorts
Showin' no remorse
For a brother like mix, lookin' for the smooth
Didn't need a houston skirt to get with me
But the nights still young
And the hunk ain't done
So we stepped to the van
Attitude's out of it
The next club, the main event
We never think about a dress code
Just step up in the club and let the game roll
But as soon as my boy maharaji pulls up
Some punk starts runnin' up
He said you don't wanna be with a rap star
They play you for your money and your car
Well my boy got crushed but the girl stepped off
With a rap stars rep, the girls are lost
"hey yo, what's up, this is mix i had to make a run
Right quick, but leave your name and number 'n i'll
Getcha right back, peace."
So the posse left houston texas
All the girls keep callin' us sexis
Houston media is givin' us rappers no pity
So we all hit kansas city
In k.c. we go the gates and suns
Gotta get grub 'fore we run
Met a little freak named stacy
I said i'm not just here for the barbecue baby
She gave me that look, like pebbles
I'm acked with bass not treble
So i say, oogley-goo oogley-doo-goo-doo
"what'd you say?" i ain't tellin' you
You see the mix game is laced with riddles
It ain't moaney, it's mix in the middle
In walked my ex named wendy
She got a fresh dooney bag
'cause she's tired of fendi
Oooh, could a brother be busted
Because wendy trusted, me?
An' ah told a lit'l lie 'n
Said i was a loyal guy
Wendy got mad and she wants to dis me
In kansas city
Wendy starts to groovin'
Hands on her hips and her hair starts movin'
She said the mixalot game is phony
Just 'cause i said i'm runnin' girls like ponies
But talkin' that stuff is my occupation
That's how i got this reputation
A rappers reputation, got a rappers reputation
Bring it on down. a rappers reputation, bring it back
A rappers reputation, that's what i got. a rappers
Reputation, peace.

歌詞解析
一句話主旨
透過巡迴演出中遭遇的種種誤解與拒絕，探討饒舌歌手身分所帶來的社會標籤與刻板印象。
主題
歌手身分與公眾形象的矛盾、大眾對饒舌文化的偏見、巡演途中的情感互動。
情緒
無奈、反抗、自信與帶有諷刺意味的疏離感。
意象與手法
以地標移動作為敘事軸線，將「名聲（Reputation）」擬人化為一個阻礙與負擔。運用「公路電影」式的寫實敘事，透過各地女性對饒舌歌手的排斥，映照出當時社會對於嘻哈文化的防備心理。
重點句解讀
一、「My reputation offends this man」：這句話點出歌手的身分本身就成為了一種冒犯，即便他未曾做出實際傷害，僅僅因為他是饒舌歌手，便引來他人的敵意。
二、「It ain't a black thang, it's a rap thang」：作者藉此區分種族與職業，強調大眾將饒舌歌手視為幫派成員的偏見，已經超越了種族議題，成為了一種針對音樂文化的集體誤解。
三、「Censorship is sweepin' the nation / Messin' up a rap stars reputation」：指出了當時審查制度對嘻哈產業的打壓，這種公眾輿論的壓力直接扭曲了饒舌歌手在社會眼中的形象。
四、「But talkin' that stuff is my occupation / That's how i got this reputation」：結尾處將「說唱」定義為職業，坦承那些被視為「虛假」或「浮誇」的歌詞內容，其實只是他工作的一部分，展現了對身分標籤的坦然與反諷。
適合情境
當感到被他人刻板印象所束縛，或是在探討流行文化與社會輿論如何互動時聆聽。
魔鏡站長解析
魔鏡站長
這首歌挺有意思的，陳秋霞展現了她少見的饒舌敘事面貌。整段旋律像是一場公路旅行，記錄著主角在各個城市間穿梭，試圖與人交流卻不斷被既定印象阻擋的無奈。歌詞巧妙捕捉了身為一名饒舌歌手，在光鮮亮麗的職業背後，往往被貼上標籤，無論是在加州還是休士頓，這種因為身分而被誤解、拒絕的戲碼不斷上演，聽起來既寫實又帶點無力感。
我特別喜歡歌裡那種邊走邊唱的節奏，把巡演路上的瑣碎與糾葛，化作了一種自我解嘲的談資。這不只是在談論異性緣或都市生活，更深層地反映了當一個人被過度標籤化時，想要真誠互動竟變得如此困難。如果你在一個人的深夜開車，或者想聽點帶有復古街頭感的節奏，這首歌能讓你感受到那種在路途上，即使被誤解也要繼續前行的灑脫。那種面對質疑時，索性把標籤當作職業一部分的豁達，確實是這首歌最耐人尋味的地方。
歌曲冷知識
・歌詞透過加州、休士頓到堪薩斯城的公路旅程，串連起饒舌歌手在各地遭遇的誤解與排斥。
・以「凱迪拉克」形容女性的身材曲線，展現出強烈且具有美式復古感的視覺意象。
・反覆提及「饒舌歌手的聲譽」，深刻描繪出公眾人物被標籤化後，難以建立真實人際關係的無奈。
・結尾處將「說謊」定義為職業需求，巧妙地將饒舌歌手的表演性格與私下的真實自我做出區隔。
