The Rapper

"The Rapper" is a song by The Jaggerz, written by band member Dominic Ierace, better known as Donnie Iris. Released as a single, it reached No. 2 on the ''Billboard'' Pop Singles chart and was certified Gold by the RIAA in 1970 (see 1970 in music) for selling over a million copies.〔(RIAA Gold and Platinum Search Results )〕 (Iris later launched a solo career; his biggest such hit was Ah! Leah!.)
The song is addressed to a girl, or girls in general; it describes the method of a man who seduces women with untruths ("rapping".) The singer says, "You know what he's after"; he concludes by saying there comes a point at which the man has his target where he wants her. The girl has to "face reality." The record ends with a small group of applause heard in the studio.
