Overview

Write a short summary of what happens in the radio or audio work.

“Hulu Doesn’t Just Have Live Sports” is an original track written and performed by Dame D.O.L.L.A., aka NBA Superstar Damian Lillard. In the lyrics, he owns the fact that he is selling out to Hulu for tons of cash. This track also happens to be the first diss track targeting cable TV in the history of hip hop. Particularly pointed lyrics include “Over 65 channels Hulu showing off / I wasn’t putting on ’til I turned cable off.”

Translation. Provide a full English translation of any audio.

[Chorus]

Hulu doesn't just have live sports

It's a lifestyle (You feel me?)

Switched to the stream so it's hype now (It's lit)

I watch what I want every night now (Every night)

Can't decide with the options that I got now

[Post-Chorus]

Got shows (Got shows)

Different kinds (Different kinds)

New originals (New)

All the time (All the time)

Big movies (Big movies)

On my mind (On my mind)

It's my lifestyle (Lifestyle)

All the time (Dame D.O.L.L.A.)

[Verse 1]

Swimming in my money, I can never get enough

Told my nephews pay th?y bills with these buck (On Hulu)

Being hon?st, my mils walkin' to the bank, that's a promise

Now I'm in my lane, I just slam, that's ironic (Bow)

Pass the remote, gotta see what's on (What's on)

Flip to a game, you gon' see me on (For real)

Over sixty-five channels, Hulu showin' off

I wasn't puttin' on 'til I turned cable off (Cut it off)

I got the internet and that's all I need (Need)

Entire streaming' library, what you tryna see? (What you tryna see?)

It's more than live sports, it's a lifestyle (It's a lifestyle)

They gave me a bag so it's hype now (It's hype)

They gave me the sauce, now I'm dripped out (Dripped out)

So many shows and originals, I lost count (Lost count)

Gotta get the money, I don't need clout (Don't need it)

You know what time it is, don't ever doubt

[Chorus]

Hulu doesn't just have live sports

It's a lifestyle (You feel me?)

Switched to the stream so it's hype now (It's lit)

I watch what I want every night now (Every night)

Can't decide with the options that I got now

[Post-Chorus]

Got shows (Got shows)

Different kinds (Different kinds)

New originals (New)

All the time (All the time)

Big movies (Big movies)

On my mind (On my mind)

It's my lifestyle (Lifestyle)

All the time

[Verse 2]

Had to take control (Control)

Had to let it go, yeah

Cable held me back, had to give-and-go

Ran the pick-and-roll with the home team

Need to see what I want on my own screen

Don't turn nothin' down but my collar (It's good)

On the hood, if the bag there holla (It's good)

You can watch the game here, why bother?

I take a shot from the logo, it's water (Water)

I don't run with squares in my section (At all)

We all move like everyday is a blessing (Everyday)

We all streamin' with the squad, ain't a question (Ain't a question)

You with the ops need to make the correction (Correction)

I done seen a lot of companies, they ain't this (They ain't)

Sign me up, I signed in, ain't no way to miss

Got my chef in the kitchen, not a bad dish

I'm with the squad, everybody else gettin' dissed

[Chorus]

Hulu doesn't just have live sports

It's a lifestyle (You feel me?)

Switched to the stream so it's hype now (It's lit)

I watch what I want every night now (Every night)

Can't decide with the options that I got now

[Post-Chorus]

Got shows (Got shows)

Different kinds (Different kinds)

New originals (New)

All the time (All the time)

Big movies (Big movies)

On my mind (On my mind)

It's my lifestyle (Lifestyle)

All the time (Dame D.O.L.L.A.)

Cultural / Context information for the jury

From Tupac and Biggie’s battles in the ’90s to Drake and Meek Mill today, hip hop wouldn’t be hip hop without the diss track. But in all that time, no one has ever written a diss track against cable TV. That changed in 2021, when Dame D.O.L.L.A. dropped “Hulu Doesn’t Just Have Live Sports.” And like all targets of a savage diss track, cable has never been the same.
