About Hungry

"Hungry" is a song recorded by American singer and rapper Fergie, featuring guest vocals from American rapper Rick Ross. It was released officially on August 25, 2017, as a promotional single from Fergie's second studio album, Double Dutchess. Although the song was only officially released in August 2017, Fergie teased the song posting "Hungry (1st Byte)" and "Hungry (2nd Byte)" in June 2016. Musically, the song is a hip hop track with a "stuttering beat" and Middle Eastern elements. The track contains a sample of Dead Can Dance's 1987 song "Dawn of the Iconoclast". The song received a positive feedback from music critics, with most praising Fergie's vocals and the production, although some felt the track came across as more of an interlude. The music video was directed by Bruno Ilogti.

Hmm yeah

To say it's complicated, understatement of the year
Well maybe conflict made it a new flavor in your ear
They know that I'm a problem, that's why everybody scared
Whatever doesn't kill you, can make you an ill-ionaire, yeah
Uh, just turn the headphones up or make the windows roll up
I make they hands go up
When I show up and I blow it 'til I'm full up, wait, hold up
Girl up in the mirror, uh
Only one I fear, uh
You say you the realest
I told you I'm the illest

Hmmm hungry
Starving uhmm

Hm hm hm just hungry
Ambitious, still hungry
Still hungry

Woo!
I'm moonwalking on marble floors (introduce yourself)
Rick Ross, I'm just drippin' sauce
Bitches see me and they all just wave (boss)
Rolls Royce and we call this Wraith (woo)
I f*ck up money like I'm Escobar
Ballin', ballin', Kobe Bryant, that boy living large
No room for medium, that means you thinkin' small
Ferrari, Fergie, switching gears, she rockin' with a boss (boss)
I close my eyes, I must be telepathic
Look over haters, tripling my assets (boos)
It takes courage to accomplish these things
Fergie's my queen, I'm the king, now come kiss on our rings
