about this song
“Butter” is Phife Dawg’s semi-autobiographical lyrical showcase that addresses girl problems. Phife contrasts his personal experiences with the girls in high school to handle the same girls later in life as a smooth “mack.” At the root of Phife’s girl problems is the difficulty to distinguish love from being played. The song features minimalistic production behind a solid drum beat sampled from Chuck Jackson’s 1968 rendition of “I Like Everything About You.”
