11 Great Rap Songs About Loyalty

The topic of loyalty has been tackled by a number of rappers, who have produced some very great rap songs by employing imaginative lyrical that manages to strike a balance between forceful rap flows and condemnatory/appreciative wordplay on loyalty.

Rap songs about loyalty serve as a reminder of the people we can count on in times of difficulty or when we just need someone to talk to.

These tunes remind us of the people who love and support us, or make us feel liked and cherished. Loyalty’s importance has been underestimated, despite the fact that it’s inextricably linked to other positive qualities, such as respect and trust, such as devotion and dedication to another person.

In this piece, I’ll discuss a few of the very best rap songs about loyalty I’ve ever heard. Okay, let’s get to it!

1. Kendrick Lamar & Rihanna – “Loyalty”

This is almost certainly going to be the first song that comes to anyone’s mind when they are asked to mention rap songs about loyalty. In the music video for their single “LOYALTY,” Kendrick Lamar and Rihanna talk frankly about the importance of loyalty and honesty in maintaining healthy friendships and romantic partnerships.

There is a consistent theme throughout Lamar’s work highlighting the importance of loyalty. On this tune, the Compton MC and Rihanna sing the praises of trust, loyalty, and commitment in platonic and romantic partnerships. Loyalty is all they want from their loved ones, friends, and partners.

2. Chris Brown & Lil Wayne & Tyga ` Loyal

“Loyal,” is notable for the unforgettable line “these hoes ain’t loyal” spit by Breezy. In the hip-hop culture, a hoe is a promiscuous woman. However, in a broader context, it might also mean “women” in the abstract. And that’s basically how the term is being used in this tune.

Brown and his well-paid friends basically boast about sleeping with each other’s girlfriends because of their wealth. As the chorus puts it, though, “hoes ain’t faithful” when a wealthy man comes calling.

That pretty much wraps up the whole issue. All the stories told in the lyrics revolve around the singers’ ability to seduce dedicated women, or the fact that beautiful women are naturally drawn to them due to their wealth and fame.

3. Family and Loyalty in Gang Starr (feat. J.Cole)

If you’re familiar with Gang Starr, you know that Guru, the duo’s vocalist, passed away in 2010. Hence, his posthumous contributions to “Family and Loyalty.”

A further characteristic of Gang Starr’s music that their legion of devoted listeners will recognize is a tendency toward a more spiritually oriented soundscape. So, it makes sense for them to work with someone like J. Cole.

The foundation of this song’s theme is the bonds of family and devotion. In particular, the artists introduce these ideas in terms of their durability, drawing analogies between them and other things that are “forever,” such as traditional rap songs and their own introspective depth of thought. When comparing the lyrics of the two, Guru’s focus is more on his idealistic goals, tireless work, and undying love for his homies.

Conversely, J. Cole portrays himself as someone who seeks to strengthen the African-American community. And he thinks he can achieve this by sparking economic growth in hitherto moribund areas.

In general, the lyrics to “Family and Loyalty” sound like they were plucked straight from an old Gang Starr tune. A song in which the rappers discuss the challenges of growing up in the ghetto while also expressing gratitude for the lessons they learned there.

4. “Rich the Kid” Has No Loyalty

While boasting about his fortune, Rich The Kid uses the song “No Devotion” to emphasize his mistrust of other people and to indicate that loyalty can only be bought with money. As the title implies, it conveys a message to everyone who believes that those around them are genuinely looking out for their own interests.

5. Loyalty and Love,  Wale

From the heart of the Rap Nation, an American rapper with Nigerian roots has brought us a rap delicacy: a song about loyalty that catches the spirit of rap and sing-song melody as an improvised take on famous rap classics.

The sultry vocals of Wale are all it takes to make you fall in love with loyalty in love (we know, it’s insane), as this song praises the love in loyalty and vice versa.

6. PARTYNEXTDOOR Loyal (feat. Drake)

PartyNextDoor sings about his boo in “Loyal,” which features guest vocals from Drake. His title alludes to the fact that he is boasting about his devotion to her.

This seems to be related to her feud with his pals directly. In fact, the performer admits that her personality may be described as “bad.” While he would like it if she would quit arguing with his pals, he ultimately recognizes that she is his “best buddy.”

Throughout the song, it’s also made clear that they’ve been dating for quite some time. Having “money in his pocket” is definitely a big element of the singer’s dedication to her and his appeal to her. The vocalist also appears to be pleading for her to stay with him, which could indicate that their relationship is currently problematic.

7. Lil Wayne “Loyalty” Feat. Gudda Gudda & HoodyBaby

Fresh off Tunechi’s “In Tune We Trust” EP, WORLDSTARHIPHOP offers up this rap lemonade, and it’s a lyrical feast indeed, with all the artists on display satisfying their cravings for linguistic sophistication with satiated flows.

Still at the top of his game from the beginning, Lil Wayne kills it on this one (I suppose he is loyal to the track!) by displaying his lyrical prowess and proving that he still has bars even after all these years.

He makes rap seem enjoyable and never loses his touch, so you should listen to every bar as if it were the last, since you never know when that will be. Be unwavering in your commitment to the cause, and don’t back down!

8. Got Your Back by T.I. and Keri Hilson

The couple’s triumph over adversity is the uplifting theme of this tender love ballad.

Though buying a loved one a planet as a token of your affection isn’t the most original way to declare your feelings, it’s impressive that T.I. would consider such a gesture.

Even if his wallet is empty, he says, “She still got a n*gga back.” It sends a strong message to women that they shouldn’t prioritize financial security over emotional commitment in today’s uncertain economic state.

Then he starts spitting about his time in jail; it’s brave of him to be so open about a traumatic experience like that. To the ladies whose boyfriends caught a sentence and are only here for a short while: “Just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate you.” This solid, mature marriage remains steadfast even in the face of adversity.

At the song’s end, he declares that his partner is more valuable to him than any amount of money in the world. This rap superstar sets a fantastic example by making such a bold statement. Never before has it been more important for women to tell their significant others to emulate T.I.

9. Loyalty, Hp Boyz

Australia’s finest rap orchestra is making waves throughout the world with their multifaceted take on the genre and their ability to set the European scene aglow.

Rainy mornings are perfect for listening to this type of challenging music, which focuses on loyalty to one’s kin and the importance of being there for one’s loved ones, especially on the walk to school.

10. “Loyalty and Love” by The LOX.

That’s right, it’s the dreaded “triple threat,” consisting of three men who, chances are, you’ll like equally. This is rap that sounds like it might last through a global flu epidemic, and it’s hip-hop at its purest. This is the more introspective material; The Lox, unbeknownst to them, helped transform boys into men in slums all across the world.

Rap songs about loyalty are all about The LOX, which is how consistency feels. You cannot separate loyalty and love!

11. Loyal To A Fault ` Big Sean

There’s no denying that Big Sean is a genuine treasure and deserves a bouquet of flowers for his efforts. All the feelings are spot-on, and it’s so easy to relate to the singer’s experience. And Bryson and Durk, what a lethal pair, right?

Despite the title, not all girls are unfaithful in the same way, and not all men switch partners frequently. The tune’s catchiness makes you feel like you’re not alone in your struggles; all you want is loyalty in return for your own.
