[Chorus]
(I feel good) about✦ Kanday✦
[Verse 3]
I'm feelin✦ gooder✦ than good, if you wouldn't I would
If you could, I know you could, she's kickin✦ back in the hood
When she starts to get off she can knock off a cough
I know 'cough' don't rhyme with 'boss', but she made me her boss
She's the talk of my room whenever I'm in my room
My little brother loves✦ her more than his favorite cartoon
Her body's✦ bad, the girl's built, skin like silk
Wet, steamy✦ and warm just like a hot cup of milk
She's all the way live, keeps me satisfied
I don't go outside, I like to stay inside✦
Her ways are like an angel,✦ with bright white wings
And I'm crazy✦ 'bout the way Kanday✦ shakes✦ her thing
Wouldn't leave her for nothin,✦ only✦ a crazy✦ man would
That's why I had to tell ya that
[Chorus]
(I feel good) about✦ Kanday✦
[Verse 4]
Ooh, you couldn't imagine, I'm lickin✦ my lips
If she was tea I'd take a sip, when I'm in gym I do flips
I'm in love with the pizznoot, it's proper✦ as hell
I'm hittin✦ harder✦ than hard, always✦ makin✦ her yell
She's cooler✦ than an iceberg, word to the mother✦
In the house, down the steps and under✦ the covers
Right away,✦ no sation, or frontin, or playin
Or delayin, I'm never✦ steppin off, I'm always✦ stayin
Her mother✦ knows me well, father✦ hates✦ my guts
He don't know when we're alone✦ she's always✦ feelin✦ on my niggy-niggy-nuts
For a snack, cornflakes, crackerjacks
Day after✦ day I try to break that back
And man, oh man, damn, you can't and I can
Last time I saw her ex-man,✦ I had to shake homeboys' hand
I said "what up", he said "what up", "I took your girl, so what up?"
Gotta✦ walk on the ground with a hole to fill up
All the boys laugh about✦ her, Darryl and Dewayne
Bobcat✦ and Earl, but they must be insane✦
Michael Spelling's on my side, and big Chuck agrees✦
She's my private freaky✦ deak, my own personal skeez
Wouldn't leave her for nothin,✦ only✦ a crazy✦ man would
That's why I had to tell ya that (I - feel - good)
[Chorus]
(I feel good) about✦ Kanday✦

Critic Analysis
RAPLEDGER BAROMETER™

LL Cool J utilizes a playful, conversational flow that prioritizes rhythmic repetition and 'stomp-rap' cadence over complex lyrical abstraction, typical of mid-80s hip-hop.

Rhyme Architecture: Predominantly AAAA, BBBB rhyme-couplets with high-density internal rhyme strings that rely on phonetic repetition rather than shifting multi-syllabic structures.
Verified Doubles & Entendres

"she made me her boss"

① The literal romantic dynamic where the subject holds authority over the narrator.② A play on the phonetic proximity to the previous line about a 'cough' (rhyme subversion).

"If she was tea I'd take a sip"

① A basic metaphorical comparison of the subject to a beverage to express desire.② A common trope of 80s rap where physical attraction is equated to consumption/thirst.

Exceptional rhythmic consistency

High energy performance delivery

Strong command of the 'pocket' for the era

Cohesive theme maintenance

Literal and simplistic metaphors

Lacks meaningful wordplay depth

Forced rhymes to satisfy the 'Kanday' theme

Over-reliance on repetitive rhyming structures
