“Dragonball Durag” is a song about getting accepted by a girl no matter what it takes. Getting a new whip, flexing jewelry, and even wearing a dragonball durag.

Thundercat reveals his insecurity through the motif of “would you tell me the truth?” Even though Thundercat has his “swag turned on” with his dragonball durag, he still seeks his girl’s approval, highlighting dependence on her.

"There are two types of people in the world: the guy with the durag and the guy who doesn’t know what a durag is. The durag is a superpower, to turn your swag on, it does something, it changes you. The durag is a life-changing thing. If you have one in the wardrobe, think about wearing that tonight, that may pop off because you never know what’s going to happen…The durag is the ultimate power move. Not like a superpower, but just–you know, it translates into the world. You’ve got people with durags, and you’ve got people without them. Personally, I always carry one. Man, you ever see that picture of David Beckham wearing a durag and shaking Prince Charles' hand? Victoria’s looking like she wants to rip his pants off."

"I have a whole entire Dragonball wardrobe. That’s the best way to describe it. It’s pretty vicious, formidable. I always have to prepare people for it. It’s like, “Okay, you got a couple of Dragonball shirts,” Like, no… I have a whole entire Dragonball wardrobe. And they’re like, “this is cosplay!” This is beyond cosplay at this point. In a second, I’m going to completely transmit to another world and be Piccolo do some hyperbolic time training. Don’t know where yet."
