Mo Money Mo Problems
Kelly price sings, “I don't know what they want from me, It's like the more money we come across, The more problems we see”. The Jongas and the Edwardses both have their fair share of problems. However, as the Jongas set their sights on America, they dreamed of a more comfortable life. Neni even enjoyed shopping with her friend in New York. As the Jongas grew closer to the Edwardses, they witnessed the problems money can inflict. Clark is a workaholic, Cindy has issues with drugs and alcohol, Vince hates his parents and their/his elite culture, and Mighty is enduring all of this at his young age.
On the other hand, despite the song’s chorus, the verses of Mo Money Mo Problems feature very little disadvantages to being wealthy. A majority of the lyrics depict a glamourous lifestyle, one filled with money and luxury that the Edwardses never seem to lose despite the market crash. “Ten years from now we’ll still be on top.” The upper class is confident they’ll remain unaffected (so long as those they depend on--like the Edwardses depending on the Jongas--are taking the blow).
