gold digger
Have you heard this song? The title of the song is gold digger. One thing I would like to make clear to you. I hate Kanye West. Do not listen to his song at all after this post! 🙂 So, I used to listen to HipHop a lot but not really anymore. Maybe I am getting older. But the other reason I do not listen to them anymore is because of their lyrics. Some of them are just so bad. I mean really bad. Funny thing is I used to not be able to hear and understand lyrics and just enjoy rhythm and beat. I mean some of them are still hard for me to understand what they are talking about because it is so fast.
So, if you listen to hiphop without understanding the lyrics, you would probably fine with keep listening. But, if you pay attention a little bit more, you would notice that some lyrics are horrible. I remember one time when I was driving down to DC with Jessy and we were listening to HipHop and, all of a sudden, Jessy and I looked each other and said, “Did you hear what he is saying? That is insane!” Annnnnnnd, we changed the channel. So, you gotta be careful what you are listening. 🙂
Well, but there are some expressions you might be interested in from listening to music. For example, gold digger. If you listen to the song carefully, you should be able to understand what it means. In general, this is only used for women but who knows. Here is a definition on urban dictionary.
Any woman whose primary interest in a relationship is material benefits. A woman who cares more about a man’s bank account than she does about the man.
If I did not know the expression and my friends would ask me what I think this expression means, then I would say, “It sounds like someone lives life for making more and more money and only cares about money.” I guess this would be partially correct but not really, right?
Now, what about a guy who is in relationship with a gold digger. What is the expression you can use? Before I tell you this expression, I must say that I like this expression itself. Based on a web source I found, this expression was first used in 1926 and, in 1976, Jackson 5 released a single whose title is “Sugar Daddy.” That is right! Sugar Daddy is the expression you can use for a man who is in a relationship with a gold digger or relationships with gold diggers. (He could have multiple relationships at a time. Why not? 🙂 )
Why don’t we all become God Digger instead of Gold Digger because God is really the ultimate Sugar Daddy. You should at least give it a try to read the Bible to find out who He is.
