This is one of Smith’s more cryptic Tweets. Buzzfeed theorized (perhaps jokingly) that it’s a reference to ice cream, by using this mocked-up Garfield cartoon:

Alternately, it may be a reference to journalism.

Or is it something else?

Ne te quæsiveris extra.

Maybe Jaden is referring to palm reading, the practice of discovering insight about your life by analyzing the lines and shapes of your palm. But it feels like he’s going for something much more transcendental – your hands, the agent of all your actions in this world, hold the knowledge in the universe. You need to look no further than yourself and your actions.

This tweet poses a dilemma. The truth hurts, and revealing it can be painful for both people in a relationship. So Jaden can either be a liar, withholding this painful truth, or cry with his lover over it.

This may be about Kylie Jenner, who retweeted it. Though the reality starlet previously denied being in a relationship with the young twitter philosopher, recent photos with familiarly cryptic captions suggest otherwise.

*Ksss* Ahhh… 2014

This is one of Jaden’s more contentious Tweets.

One branch of thinking is that he’s describing the colors of a flag.

  • Red, white, and blue are the American flag, but he has replaced red with green. (Red connoting bloodshed, and green connoting environmentalism??)
  • Others point to existing flags that are already green white and blue, such as Sierra Leone’s or Northern Ireland’s.

The other branch of thinking is that green white and blue are not related to flags, but are instead meant to each represent something symbollically. But what? Peace, purity, and emotion? Envy, cleanliness, and sadness? Money, caucasians, and pornography?

That Tweet from 03/03/2014 is sounding truer all the time.

Humans only ever say anything when they do not understand, therefore the overwhelming majority of people who comment do not understand. We assume this group is representative of the entire population, while it is very biased. This is a common example of “survivorship bias” (“concentrating on the people or things that "survived” some process and inadvertently overlooking those that didn’t because of their lack of visibility.“, Wikipedia). He could also be trying to comfort himself because many people do not understand his tweets, similar to how people talk to themselves when they are scared, nervous, worried, etc.; it is a defense mechanism.

A primeira vista, pode parecer que essa música é machista pois se trata de falar mal de mulheres. Nessa linha, o Pensador nega que é machismo pois ele diz que não quer mulheres burras e interesseiras. Portanto o rap não é anti-mulher ou referente a todas a mulheres – se trata apenas das que se enquadram na imagem da Lôrabúrra.

Afinal, é machista ou não? Cabe ao ouvinte decidir.

It turns out she’s not impressed by my cheese after all. Assuming the cheese here still stands for money, she’s disappointed that the slice of my cash I was willing to hand over to her was too small.

There’s also the let down of discovering that cheese doesn’t really stand for money at all – it’s really cheese.

Here’s a more explicit revelation that this whole talk of cheese is less about money and more about literal cheese. So I use the same language rappers use to brag about their money, but it turns out, in the end, I’m broke after all. #hipsterirony

Dough and cake are two other slang terms for money. Mixing up that metaphor with the running cheese motif gets us cheesecake.

Shout out to Nicki Minaj for the cheesecake line.
