Lil Dicky é um rapper (e comediante) judeu e americano. Já é uma combinação interessante logo de cara.
Ele ficou famoso por alguns de seus clipes (veja 2 deles no final deste post), mas nenhum se compara à epopéia épica de “Pillow Talking”, uma viagem maionésica de 11 minutos que começa com um bate papo despretensioso na cama entre ele e uma garota e a partir daí parte para elocubrações mais avançadas. O clipe foi bancado por ele mesmo, custou 700 mil dólares, mas já ultrapassou a marca de 6 milhões de visualizações nessas 3 semanas, desde que foi lançado – já deve ter recuperado o investimento.

Além da viagem toda, a linguagem do clipe também é muito bacana. “Pillow talk” é um rap com um beat extremamente lento e minimalista e qualquer tentativa de transformá-lo em um clipe já seria um desafio só por conta disso. A solução de colocar o diálogo encenado pelo casal funciona muito bem (um belo trabalho de memorização e sync). E as interferências dos CGI surreais só reforçam o clima.
Abaixo, a gigantesca letra – maionese acompanha.
Pillow Talking
Lil Dicky
Ey, ey Dmn!
L tapped twice on some ass like grams
(I just fucked)
Now what I’m doing?
I’m just pillow talking with a bitch
I’m just pillow talking with a bitch
I just finished spazzin’ on a bitch
Now I’m pillow talking with a bitch
I’m like girl that was great, talk about a connection
Am I alone in my praise, do you share my assessment?
She like yeah that was nice, I enjoyed myself
Great, yeah
She like can you reach that shelf for my phone?
I’ll take care the alarm
I’m like “oh, for the morning, like to sleep?”
She like yeah, we just had sex
What did you think?
I was just gonna fuck you and leave?
No, I I hadn’t thought that far ahead
But of course, can I get you a T-Shirt?
Oh, can you not tickle my hair?
It’s just a personal thing, it’s not you
Okay sorry for doing it
No, no, it’s just a personal thing, it’s not you
Okay cool. Yeah
Uhhh, so you’re from Minnesota?
Only thing I know is that it’s cold
Break it down, how’s it compare to living in LA?
Well, I can’t compare them they’re so different
Y’know what I’m sayin?
Yeah, for sure
She like apples to oranges
Yeah, well you can still compare them but I hear ya
What’s the deal with your family? Got any siblings?
She like I have a brother, I’m like oh what he do?
She like he in the Army
Oh, true
Uhh, do you fuck with the war?
She like huh, what did you just say?
Huh, like just now?
Yeah
Do you fuck to the war?
No, I don’t fuck with the war
I’m like no, I don’t fuck with the war
Just don’t know how to react to the forces
I should have just thanked you of course –
Uh, why would you thank me?
Uh, I guess I assumed it would extend to the families but okay
While we on the topic
I been actually thinking about some shit
About the Army and Navy
What if tomorrow is the day
That the fucking aliens came
And invaded our nation?
Like, would we even be able to fuck with their shit?
Like do we have the type of weaponry to fuck with their ships?
So not at all, like would they just walk up in this motherfucker
Laughin’ at us, and blastin’ at us
And makin’ everybody disintegrate and assimilate
Without a hint of intimidation?
Or could we do some shit to be making they heart race?
Granted I don’t know the alien heart, but
You get what the fuck I’m sayin?
Like what the fuck would it be like?
Would they be like Earth go hard?
Or is it just another conquest?
Or would they be like damn earth go hard
They was harder than Simian
You ever talk to your brother about this uh type of stuff?
Then she like no
I’m like well what you think?
She like I don’t concern myself with hypotheticals that couldn’t be
I’m like girl what you mean?
She like I don’t believe
In the war?
In aliens
Oh hold up
Hold up, wait
Girl what you sayin?
That all of the life in the universe happens to be where you stand?
I guess
What an enormous coincidence that shit would be
Do you see what I’m sayin’?
I can’t hear what you’re sayin’
Well the universe always expanding
There are infinite galaxies
Why would we be the anomaly?
She like that’s no coincidence
I call that shit God
I’m like oh you’re religious, bitch
You think it’s all God
No, I know it’s all God
No, I know that there might be a God
First off, nobody knows there’s a God
Girl I think we should drop this
No, what’s goin’ on in your brain right now?
Brain uhh, brain on some other shit though
I been all up in the club for the year hey brain
I been killin’ shit don’t mind me
I’m just top flight
I could sure use a Sprite
I’m thirsty as fuck
Who gettin money?
That’s brain
Who make decisions?
That’s brain
Who make the hits?
That’s been brain
Who run the whole operation?
That be brain
(Brain, can you just get back to the issue here)
Uh, can you just remind the brain?
(You’re such an idiot, we’re talking about God and if he exists)
Don’t call brain names
The brain couldn’t recall
But if I’m not mistaken this bitch to my left
Guaranteed there’s a god
(I believe in a god, yes)
So god never wrong
God never wrong, right?
Yeah, that’s like the whole point
(Brain just get there, please)
Hold up
So god made the earth
And god was like hold up, this shit is boring
It need more shit
God was like Imma put dinosaurs on that bitch
Dinosaurs on that bitch
Then he like why I put dinosaurs on that shit?
What is your brain even saying?
Can he get to the point?
Hold up brain you just did it
God ain’t wrong what the fuck was he thinking
About what?
Bitch, the dinosaurs
He made the Earth for them
But then he like nah?
Dinosaurs are just blah?
What’s your point?
I’mma cook up some blondes?
Like he was way off
I don’t look like a dinosaur
Ho them things 35 feet
I’m like 5 foot 11
But on Tinder I’m 6 foot
Seen that Brachiosaurus
That thing fuckin’ neck go to heaven
And that’s just an expression bitch
There ain’t no heaven
Ha, funny
I’m just messin’ but if he ain’t wrong
I guess this the exception
Can I talk now?
Go ahead
Look
Everything in life has purpose
You, chickens, a midget at a circus
What?
I don’t interpret
She like that’s not for me to determine
So dinosaurs purpose was to just die?
That’s not for me to determine
But ok
I’m just a person
Okay, but think of the root of the argument girl
View how we started this girl, like you don’t believe in the aliens
You confine God to earth girl, I find that shit silly salient
I just don’t presume to know the plan
Bitch me neither but that’s not what I’ve been sayin
But what are you sayin?
Why can’t God fuck with aliens?
Why can’t Earth just be like a fucking small side project for this guy?
Ok, look we just don’t see eye to eye
Yeah but logically like you don’t believe in your side
Yeah but you’re like bringing up fucking dinosaurs
Like we could have shared the earth with them nobody knows
Yeah, there is hard soil evidence girl
Like what’s next you don’t fuck with Pangaea?
She like lets change the subject
Ok
(This bitch don’t know about Pangaea, uhm)
Brain leave it alone
I’m starving, are you hungry by chance?
Oh my god I’m so hungry
Yes, do you wanna get a pizza?
Fuck yeah. fuck yeah, I’m on it
Also I’m sorry about that whole interrogation thing
Come on dude I’m a grown up
I’m capable of having intelligent conversations
Okay, I just fuck it
Okay back to this pizza I lean pepperoni
Ugh
Sausage?
How can you eat that shit?
No, no, no, this not Dominoes
This legit, is high quality meat and shit
No, no, I’m vegetarian
Oh right, well we can get half pepperoni
And half of whatever you like
Uh, ew, I can’t have that shit
In the same box
Seriously? You’re that against meat?
No, I’m that against us being gluttonous
Thinking that animals live on this earth to get eaten
Okay, is it how we treat them?
Uh, that sure doesn’t help
Ok
She like I’m not opposed to us hunting
But now we not trackin’ them down
We just breed them to eat
That’s disgusting
You should honestly read on the subject
Alright hold up
Just because we’re not running around with a bow and arrow
Doesn’t mean we’re not hunting these chickens
We just decided the place to do our hunting intelligently enough
To manipulate these animals and get them to do exactly what we want
That’s my point we just incubate animals
Instead of just letting them live how they come
But, that’s just your God at work bitch
Why we go hard on earth
What you think would happen right now
If you left my place
And there were like three wolves waiting for you
Wolves?
Bitch, they would tear your ass up
Viciously
Like they would eat your titties
And your pussy
That’s what they do
And your face and shit
Humans are smarter bitch
That’s what we do
She like apples to oranges
Bitch that phrase don’t make no sense
Why can’t fruit be compared?
She like I’m gonna leave
There’s just all of these conflicting principles
Right, enjoy your pepperoni pizza
I will, that’s my god given right
She like where is my bag?
Oh that leather one next to the trash?
That’s the one right? Made out of cow, I think?
Uhh why are there no Ubers in this area?
So you don’t eat the meat, you just be wearing the shit
I’m not listening dude
That’s barbaric as shit
Do you come from the vikings?
Why are you even still talking?
Do you take peoples land?
Do you fuck with the war?
How are there no Ubers anywhere?
Just download Lyft, they are bigger in presence out here
I don’t wanna add shit to my phone
Okay the choices are clear, ho
Ubers are not around here at all
Taxis will come but they real slow
And the brain gotta poop
T minus 5 till the brain gotta shit
I just downloaded Lyft, but it’s being so glitchy
Uhh, look do you just want to sleep here?
Uhh no thanks
It’s past 2 am
I’m not sharing a bed with you
You can sleep in my bed, I’ll just sleep on the floor
Fine, you’re sure?
Yeah, it’s cool
I won’t throw you out to the wolves
Oh my god, you are so annoying
I couldn’t help myself
But can you at least throw me a pillow?
I’m just pillow talking with a bitch
I’m just pillow talking with a bitch
I just finished spazzin’ on a bitch
Now I’m pillow talking with a bitch
Brain gotta poop still
Please don’t neglect the brain
Please don’t neglect the brain
Hold on, is that my Lyft?
Nah, I got a pizza
Full pepperoni too
So, you’re not gonna wanna be a part of it
(But first you should poop)
(Please don’t neglect the brain)
