Cupid swaps out arrows for something a bit more lethal on “Cupid’s Got a Gun,” where Young Money’s leading ladies get done dirty by the god of affection. Over a slithering instrumental care of New Orleans producer Chase N. Cashe, Shanell and Nicki realize that love is pain as their relationships spin out of control.
“Cupid’s got a gun / Now who said he’s a lover? / Really, he’s a murderer,” emotes Shanell. “Why he crush my heart?” asks Nicki. Who could possibly do these girls dirty like that?
